Known as the \u201cParis of South America\u201d, the sprawling city of Buenos Aires is a pleasing mixture of classic Europe and lively South America. On your next business trip<\/a>, throw a pair of walking shoes into your bag and schedule an extra day for sight-seeing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plan your bleisure travel in Buenos Aires<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take full advantage of your limited fun time by planning well in advance. Schedule business meetings<\/a> at the beginning or end of the week so you can fully enjoy the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Picking a hotel in a great location<\/a> is key to maximizing the amount of leisure time you have on your trip. Many hotels are bleisure-friendly, so if you are required to pay for the hotel during your personal days, ask for the lower business rates. You may even be able to do it in advance via your company\u2019s travel portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before you leave, ask if your personal days are covered by your company\u2019s travel insurance policy. If not, consider adding a personal travel insurance policy for those days, or check if your credit card offers this coverage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What to see in a short time<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Buenos Aires, the Palermo neighborhood is one of the prettiest neighborhoods and great for walking. It\u2019s four barrios \u2013 Chico, Hollywood, Soho, and Viejo \u2013 are upscale residential with luxury hotels, designer boutiques, antique shops<\/a>, and lovely restaurants.
