Where can I change my currency?
Currency in Argentina can be exchanged in specialized currency bureaus or in a bank. Currency can also be exchanged at the airport, large shopping centers and hotels, although the exchange rate in them will not be so favorable.
If you have traveler’s checks in your hands (recommended in US dollars), take care of their exchange in Buenos Aires, in the outback, cashing them can be difficult. In addition, there is a fairly high commission involved in cashing travelers’ checks in Argentina.
Opening hours
Banks and exchange offices are open from Monday to Friday from 10:00 to 15:00.
In the center of big cities and in tourist areas, you can find ATMs quite quickly, in residential areas there are much fewer ATMs.
Another problem typical for Argentina is the lack of cash at ATMs. Plus, you will most likely have to queue at the ATM.
Commission
Argentina banks’ commission for withdrawing cash from an ATM is about 6-8 USD per transaction. In this case, the maximum amount that you can withdraw in one transaction is 120-150 dollars.
What currency should I take with me?
It is best to go to Argentina with cash dollars, since they can be exchanged at a favorable rate. Euros are less expensive, and all other currencies are practically worthless.
It can also be problematic to exchange bills under $ 50. Banknotes must be new, “green” or the penultimate gray-green issue, but not the AA and AB series, without stamps, inscriptions, tears, spots and other marks. Small bills are only suitable for leaving a tip.
Is it profitable to cash and change money at the airport?
Official exchangers operate at Ezeiza and Aeroparque Jorge Newbery international airports. The exchange rate in them is less favorable than in banks and exchange offices in the city. Besides, there are almost always a lot of people. You can also try changing small amounts at the counters of different travel agencies and car rental agencies.
How to pay in hotels, shops, restaurants, taxis?
The official currency of Argentina is the peso. Some tourist destinations accept US dollars.
All major shops, hotels and restaurants in large cities accept cards of popular payment systems (American Express, Visa, Master Card and Eurocard) for payment, especially if they are opened in American currency. But in the provinces it is almost impossible to pay with them. You will not be able to pay with a card in some inexpensive restaurants and small shops, in public transport and taxis.
Other
In Argentina there are two foreign exchange rates. The official rate is artificially controlled by the government, and of course does not reflect the real pricing policy in the country. At this rate, you will be officially sold dollars in banks, and the settlement will be made when paying for services and goods by credit card. Please note that you will NOT be able to exchange your remaining dollars back at the official exchange rate! It is exclusively NOT recommended to use official exchangers and pay for goods with credit cards.
But there is an unofficial, so-called black rate for the Argentine peso. It will give you about 50% more local currency, and thus you can slightly offset the high cost of staying on this continent. You can also accept unused pesos back.
Import and export of national and foreign currencies is not limited; amounts over 10,000 USD must be declared.

Medical insurance is not required to travel to Argentina, but it is compulsory for a relaxing holiday. Insurance is issued for each tourist and eliminates the need to pay medical expenses for emergency medical care. In Argentina, an ambulance comes only for road accidents. And you can call only a private doctor to the hotel and the fee will be about $ 100, blood test – $ 45, limb bandaging – $ 35, taking into account these not low prices, the need for medical insurance increases significantly. In addition, the country has a vast geography – these are mountains, waterfalls, the ocean, rivers, lakes, and so on, and if you are a lover of outdoor activities and hiking routes, then the insurance package should certainly include the organization of rescue services. But, if you prefer visiting only large cities, then a minimum package of medical services is sufficient.
There are no compulsory vaccination requirements to visit Argentina, but there are diseases for the avoidance of which, vaccinations are desirable:
Measles, mumps, rubella (MMR), diphtheria-tetanus (once every 10 years), influenza vaccination – seasonal, recommended annually, hepatitis A and B, typhoid fever and rabies (if you intend to relax in rural areas, far from cities ), yellow fever.
In Argentina, you should only drink bottled water purchased in stores. Street food is simple, tasty and high in calories, but it is not clean and the risk of poisoning is very high. The food in restaurants is not worse, but the dangers are much less. Due to the unusual bacteria, gastroenteritis is common among foreigners.
Argentina is a country with a rich variety of insects, snakes, spiders and other living things.
In both urban and rural areas, you should not come into contact with stray animals. Mosquitoes in Argentina are carriers of very dangerous diseases, including: malaria, yellow fever and the Zika virus (when bitten by a pregnant woman, it can cause severe pathologies in the fetus). To protect against mosquitoes, mosquitoes, it is recommended to wear light-colored clothing that completely covers the body, have nets on the windows and use repellents containing IR3535 or DEET icaridin.
If you are stung by a jellyfish, snake, scorpion or spider, if possible, take a picture of the creature so that the doctor can quickly administer the necessary antidote. If you spent the night outside the city, wake up, be sure to shake your clothes and shoes, as an unnamed guest in the form of a scorpion, a spider or a snake may be hiding there.
Argentina has a huge number of hospitals, both public and private. And the staff is usually highly qualified. There are long queues in public hospitals and many problems with filling out various documents. In private, the equipment is better and there are no queues. Prices in private clinics are much lower than in clinics in the USA and Europe.
Argentina is one of the safest countries to travel to. However, you should remember the precautions, as in any other country.

Argentina is a large country with a mixed transport infrastructure. Argentinian roads are not very good, as they tend to be dangerous and poorly maintained. Moreover, corrupt police officers can also hinder your driving experience. Public transportation mostly relies on buses, as train services are very limited.
Road traffic is on the right side.
Train infrastructure in Argentina is very limited. Railways are mostly concentrated around Buenos Aires and some cities like Posadas. Trains are cheaper than buses, but tend to be slower. Travelling long distances by train can be comfortable, though, because you have space for sleeping. Train tickets can be bought at train stations. For most routes, reservations aren’t needed, but during holidays and weekends, they can sometimes be useful.
Bus infrastructure in Argentina is excellent. Buses are comfortable, fast and reliable. Many buses are modern, with various things like air-conditioning and Wi-Fi. Moreover, they have routes throughout the whole country, so it’s very easy to get around Argentina with a bus. In addition, during summer, many tourist destinations have an increased bus frequency. Just like trains, long distance buses also have accommodations for resting. There are several different bus classes, each with different price and comfortability. Tickets can be bought online, at bus stations or from drivers. Reservations are not required, unless it’s a holiday season or it’s a very popular route. www.plataforma10.com.ar and www.omnilineas.com are a couple of websites where you can buy bus tickets. Major cities like Buenos Aires, have their own local buses that you can use to travel around.
Buenos Aires Underground, also called Subte in Spanish, is the only metro system in Argentina. This is definitely the fastest way of getting around the city. Moreover, there 6 metro lines, which cover a decent amount of Buenos Aires. Trains run from around 05:00 to 06:00 am to midnight, every 3 to 6 minutes. One ticket costs 19 ARS and SUBE card is required to ride the metro.
Three cities in Argentina have a working tramway system: Buenos Aires, Mendoza and Valle Hermoso. These trams are quite fast and can be very useful for exploring each of these cities. Most trains are relatively modern and provide a decent level of comfort. Tramway systems usually operate from early morning to late evening or midnight. The biggest downside is that there aren’t many routes, meaning you only reach specific parts of these cities.
In Argentina, there are plenty of taxis you can take. Many of them are licensed and have a taxi meter. Taxis are mostly safe, scams and thefts are rare. Moreover, fares are surprisingly low, making taxis an affordable and a convenient way of travelling around. You should always use small bills when taking a taxi, as drivers don’t always have the required amount to give change. Requesting a taxi via mobile phone or an app like BA taxi means that you will get a reliable driver. You can hail a cab on the street, but it’s usually not a good option.
Most of the time, renting a car in Argentina is a not a good choice. A car is useful for travelling around regions that don’t have public transport, but that is pretty much the only benefit to renting a car in Argentina. Roads in the country are average, but tend to be confusing and not particularly safe. Driving at night can especially be dangerous, as lighting is quite poor and animals on the road are not uncommon. Drivers in the country also tend to be very aggressive, particularly in the cities. Police can often stop you and may solicit a bribe, especially if they see that you’re in a rental car. To rent a car in Argentina you must be 21 year old, have a credit card and a driving license. International Driving Permit is also sometimes required, but not always.
Bike rental shops can be found in many popular tourist destinations, but biking is not that popular compared to Europe or USA. Bikes are generally affordable, but prices are very varied. Bike paths in the cities are not common and biking on roads is not always safe. On the other hand, biking in nature is often a good and relaxing experience.
Because Argentina is a large country, domestic flights are common. Flying is not always a good option, as schedules can sometimes be unreliable. Reservations are often needed, because flying is also popular among locals. Aerolíneas Argentinas (https://www.aerolineas.com.ar/) is the national flight operator in the country, but there are also other companies like LATAM (https://www.latam.com/country_selector/) and Andes (www.andesonline.com).

Argentina is the birthplace of tango, real steaks and very beautiful and cheerful people. Silver mines and glaciers of the Southern Hemisphere, Buenos Aires and Cape Horn, oceans, mountains and the Tierra del Fuego archipelago, and much, much more. If you plan to travel not only in Argentina, but also in other countries of South America, then in a rented car you can only cross the border of the countries of Mercosur. Mercosur is a common market for the countries of South America, which includes Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay and Venezuela. You cannot travel to other countries of the continent. An exception is Chile, for which you need to obtain a special permit. Permission is given once, but it is reusable. Renting a car in Argentina requires you to be careful. Residents here are not too zealous to adhere to the traffic rules. Crossing solid lines and speeding are considered normal by many Argentines, and turn signals are used only in the event of an accident. However, this does not mean that the traffic police turn a blind eye to such liberties. In Argentina, there are traffic rules, and it is important to adhere to them, even if others do not plan. Recently, laws have come into force to toughen all types of fines for traffic violations in Argentina. Do not forget to turn on the low beam headlights outside the city and fasten your seat belts.
In the north, most of the roads are in good condition, not all are asphalted. There is a lot of off-road in Patagonia. In the middle of the country, the situation is worse.
In many cities, it is forbidden to turn left at traffic lights without an additional sign allowing this action.
It is forbidden to use the phone while driving. Conversations only with a headset or speakerphone.
Always carry your driver’s license, registration and insurance documents with you.
