8 expert reviews
“La Boca's most famous street and 'open air' museum is a magnet for visitors, who come to see its brightly painted houses and snap photographs of the figures of Juan and Evita Perón.”
– Lonely Planet
Concierge "The open-air tchotchke market and boisterous tango zone that operates along the colorful, scimitar-shaped byway known as Caminito is the city's only outdoor museum."
Time Out "This street's name literally means 'little walkway'. These days, the street is thronged with tango dancers, artisans and tourists." Full review
Fodor's "These days it's painfully commercial, and seems more a parody of porteño culture than anything else, but if you're willing to embrace the out-and-out tackiness it can make a fun outing." Full review
Afar Magazine " It is a tourist trap - but it is hard not to be taken by the beautiful colors of the buildings. You won't see these colors throughout BA, just in this area so it is worth a short trip." Full review
Atlas Obscura "A bright little alley in La Boca is a part of tango history. " Full review
Travel + Leisure "Strolling down historical and colorful Caminito is like visiting an outdoor art gallery. If tango dancers and bargain souvenirs hawkers frequented art galleries."
