Tigre is a popular day trip from Buenos Aires because of its peacefulness and cute little streets. It’s also known for its delta with hundreds of tiny islands and canals.

Take a train from Retiro for about 40-50 min, for a ride with the Sube card (about 9 pesos).

You can easily start a day or two and just wander around. You shouldn’t miss Puerto de frutos, the main attraction, with all its shops. It’s a market where you’ll find handcrafted items, but also hipster interior decoration articles.

If you’re looking for a peaceful walk, go down Paseo de la Victoria. It’s a beautiful walk along the river, with a lot of benches in the sun or the shade where you can take a break.
Don’t miss Boulevard Saenz Pena, a bohemian area filled with art galleries, workshops and nice restaurants. You can also shop for vintage clothing.
I do recommend going on a weekend because some shops are closed during the week.
