Ministro Pistarini International Airport (EZE, Ezeiza)
EZE to Recoleta or Palermo: one official airport taxi or remise from the counter, about an hour; the risk is a driver from the hall, not the ride, and a delayed landing after midnight.

Rules in force · 6Large bags go by car from door to door
- Argentina ↗Check entry rules for your passport with Argentina's National Migration Directorate (Migraciones) or an Argentine consulate before booking.
- Argentina ↗Exchange rules and the gap between card and cash rates have changed repeatedly: check current advice before deciding whether to bring US dollars or rely on cards.
- Argentina ↗Patagonia (El Calafate, El Chaltén, Ushuaia) is a November–March trip; in winter many services close and hiking is limited.
- Buenos Aires area ↗For Colonia by ferry, carry your passport and check the ferry's check-in time and the return on your ticket.
- Buenos Aires ↗Keep the phone out of hand and off café tables near the kerb: snatch theft from passing mopeds happens in busy areas.
- Buenos Aires ↗Large bags go by car from door to door: never on the subte or on a walk, because of crowds and theft.

Zero-brain vs precision
- Daytime default
- Pay at the official taxi or remise counter inside arrivals, or take the car your hotel booked, straight to the door; do not accept a driver who approaches you in the hall.
- Precision
- EZE is about 35 km from the city and outside the ring roads: allow an hour by road and more in traffic (field-verify counters).
- Late-night threshold
- 22:00

If it breaks
- Send your flight number and hotel name to the hotel before you fly and ask for a night-desk or key-box instructions.
- Use the official taxi or remise counters inside arrivals, or a car booked by your hotel; decline drivers who approach you in the hall.
- Prices in pesos move quickly: check the fare at the counter before you pay and keep the receipt.
- Immigration queues can pass an hour when several long-haul flights land together.
