Weekdays
The best way to see the city may be by bus.  Take a colectivo to your destination and enjoy the view.  It is often less crowded than the Subte and gives you a cheap tour. 
 
San Telmo has a variety of antiques and artisan crafts.  Plaza Dorrego is a great place to have lunch or dinner and is located in the heart of the the neighborhood.  While a bit touristy, it is well worth the visit.  Take any of the following colectivos 9,0,17,20,22,24,28,29,45,74,126,129 or 195.
 
 
 

La Boca, Caminito is one of the oldest neighborhoods in Buenos Aires and is the original port of the city.  Find colorful houses here, originally painted with leftover paint for ship hulls.  Here you will find an abundance of artisan crafts, restaurants, and tango performances.  Take the 29 or 64 to arrive directly. 

 
Tigre - Located just north of the city, Tigre offers a nice escape from the bustle of the city.  Take the train from Retiro north until it ends in the town of Tigre. 
 
The Buenos Aires Zoo is not the best in the world, but if for nothing else it is a chance to view the most interesting animals, humans.  The zoo does have a few animals that you may not see in others: a white tiger and the carpincho (the animal that provides argentina's favorite leather).  Located in Plaza Italia.

Plaza Francia is one of our favorite places to see on the weekend.  Not only does it provide a great open space to spend an afternoon, there are numerous artisans with hand made crafts as well as food.  Bring your mate and enjoy people watching.
