Insider tips

★Book the dinner option if you want the full immersive experience; the meal timing allows you to ease into the evening before the high-energy show
★Arrive early if you've booked the tango class—it runs before dinner and show, so you'll have time to relax between learning and watching
★Wear smart-casual or formal attire; this is a sophisticated evening venue, not a casual nightclub
★The venue sits in San Telmo or La Boca district (Buenos Aires' historic tango heartland)—allow extra time for transport if staying north of downtown
