    Free Concerts In Buenos Aires

    Anyone know if you can get these tickets without a DNI? What happens if I give my passport number and bring my passport when I pick up tickets?

    Returning To Buenos Aires For Vacation After 5 Years

    I noticed that the end of the Open Polo Championship will be happening while we're there (we arrive Nov. 22), and I've never been. I looked at ticketek for tickets, but it seems like the semifinal and final tickets are bundled together and a bit expensive (US$50+). Am I reading that wrong? Is...

    Returning To Buenos Aires For Vacation After 5 Years

    I thought I still had my Sube card but alas I guess I will be getting a new one. Thanks for the restaurant recs, Veteran. And good burgers.... that one surprised me. I remember going to the Office for burgers, I think? But then that closed.

    Returning To Buenos Aires For Vacation After 5 Years

    I lived in Buenos Aires in 2011-2012 (I used this forum back then) and will be back for a week this month. What's changed that I should know about? - No more exchanging dollars on the black market right? I can withdraw from ATMs. - Taxi Ezeiza still operates from the airport. - What else? What...

    Pickpockets On The C Line...

    Maybe suggest your guests get a wallet with a chain? We got one before traveling to Barcelona because we were getting sick of people warning us about pickpockets, and then used it for a year in BsAs (it saved us from getting pickpocketed on the subte from Retiro). We bought one from EMS.

    Want to learn real tango?

    My boyfriend and I took tango with Alejandro for three months and loved it. We had tried group classes at DNI before but just couldn't get into it. Happily we then found Alejando (actually through someone on the forum). He is encouraging yet calm in classes, helped us understand the music and...

    Las Lenas: overrated

    Fair enough. I think you got a more accurate sense from the reviews than I did. I knew the off-piste was a big draw, but didn't realize how lackluster the rest of the mountain was. I was also surprised by how much of an ordeal seemed to be involved in going off-piste (not that it applied without...

    robberies and insurance

    I tried to look into renter's insurance through Argentine companies, and either I couldn't get a policy without a DNI, or they only offered combination plans that didn't make any sense for me (high fire coverage, low theft coverage).

    Las Lenas: overrated

    We just got back from skiing at Las Lenas, and after having a hard time deciding where to go (Las Lenas, Portillo, Catedral, Chapelco), I figured I'd share our experience with other travelers. In a nutshell, I found Las Lenas overrated and overpriced. To me, the only on-piste trails worth...

    Selling hard alcohol

    I've sold alcohol before when moving without a problem, and friends have already claimed some of it (thanks for the suggestion). We have a bunch leftover, and maybe there are some people on here who want some cheap alcohol. I've done business before with people on the forum without any problems.

    Selling two used bikes

    Sorry livingitupba. But especially for any women out there looking for a bike, I loved the Rally. I'm sad to have to leave it behind -- I actually prefer it to my Trek bike back home.
