About this activity

“Become an eyewitness to an obscure period of our history and have a unique experience with the dark side of Argentina”

As your guide, Elisa, is a living history, she will tell you the interesting facts you need to know to understand the worst, most brutal and most violent dictatorship in Argentinean history. She will also talk about a couple of the worst aspects of the dictatorship: the systematic theft of babies from their imprisoned mothers and the Nazi ideology that permeated the military and security forces.

Take an opportunity to learn from the mistakes of the past and educate yourself on one of the lesser-known horrors of history.
