Info About Buquebus Pricing

[Farenheit]

Our guests traveled by Buquebus today. The online cost was $480 pesos return but they decided to pay in cash at the ticket office. They were charged about $1000 pesos for similar tickets! They were told the internet price is a special deal. Not sure if they were scammed or if this is the case. Even if it is the case, it's a steep surcharge. It's not like the internet price is great value....

The last time I went, I bought my ticket at the Buquebus office in Retiro.

They have different rates for on line purchase. They have 6 different rates even if you buy online !!!
It says Compra On Line.

I've always bought my buquebus tickets in cash at the ticket counter with a printout of the fare breakdown from their website, without the printout they've often tried to pull the same thing with me.

I have always been able to get the same price offered online in the office on Cordoba .

It sounds like they were scammed then. They dress expensively, maybe the guy at the ticket desk just decided to rip them off...

Next time, try SeaCat. Much cheaper and you ride on the same Buquebus boat. I've found that the earlier you buy the cheaper the ticket.
