1.5 hours · Buenos Aires · Argentina

Discover mate the way Argentines do — its preparation, history and culture — over a cozy morning brunch of homemade local pastries and savory bites, each guest with their own mate cup.

Mate is the heartbeat of Argentine social life, and this morning brunch is the perfect way to understand why. In a relaxed Palermo Hollywood setting, your host walks you through the preparation, history and culture of mate — not as a museum lesson, but as a shared ritual you take part in, each guest with their own cup. Alongside it comes a comforting spread of homemade local pastries and classic savory bites that locals grow up with. Intimate, unhurried and welcoming, it’s an ideal early-day experience for curious travelers who want an authentic, low-key window into everyday Argentine culture before heading out to explore the city.
