Inspira Travel Announces New Tango Tours in Buenos Aires

June 25, 2009 - PRLog -- Inspira Travel (www.inspiratravel.com) now offers privately guided tango tours for travellers interested in learning more about this sultry dance in Buenos Aires, the very city of its invention.  The tango tours are customized to the traveller´s particular interests, and may include visits to midnight milongas for people-watching and an explanation of tango´s subtle etiquette rules; shopping at renowned ateliers such as Comme Il Faut for its handmade tango shoes; stops at historical sites paying tribute to tango´s famous crooners, like the Carlos Gardel Museum; and walks through La Boca, the colourful Italian immigrant neighbourhood where tango is still danced in the cobblestone streets.  

Inspira Travel´s tango guide is Camille Cusumano, an American who moved to Argentina a few years ago.  Not only is Camille a regular on the milonga (tango salon) circuit, but she is also the author of “Tango, an Argentine Love Story,” a travel memoir highlighting her move to the world capital of tango and subsequent decision to dance.  Her personal anecdotes and knowledge of tango etiquette, music, and history bring to life the romance and ritual of this dance, and are ideal for visitors seeking enhanced insight into this complex art form.

Inspira Travel’s tango tour is currently available for US$60 per person, and includes a four-hour program of shopping, cultural, and historical sites customized to meet the participant´s preferences, accompanied by a bilingual English-Spanish guide.
