Tarifs

Here are the new prices that have enacted and what you can expect to pay on your venture into the Argentine wilderness:

Bus: 1.10 or 1.20 (corresponding to the previous 0.90 and 1.00)

Subte: 1.10

Tren: 0.80

Travel safe and travel well!

News, Blues.

Well it took no longer than just a week or two into the new year, and Argentina is increasing subway, train, bus and cab fares (yet again). While the increase won't put too much stress on your day to day travel budgets it is an excellent reflection of inflation (hovering closer to 24% rather than the claimed 8% we all know is false) and will certainly fuel more fire in the monedas crisis.

Ah well. Argentina - we still love you.
