http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/5463
Premium guided in-depth walking tours are a must for first timers and for second timers too. Even Porteños may benefit on it. Take one or two that fulfil your specific interests.

Plan in advance your BA walking tours and BA visit with a map of the city, tourist guides such as Time Out, books of BA as Bad Times in BA by Miranda France. Google things and participate in travel forums as Trip Advisor before arriving.

Cycling in BA is dangerous, except in Bosques de Palermo and Plazas (parks).

Shopping is one of BA’s top attractions. Cash is king, and you won´t have to pay off your credit cards when you get back home.


Search for reasonably priced apartment rentals, don´t expect to find cheap ones in Recoleta. Try renting direct from the owner of the property if possible, there are people (locals) that own three or more apartments and they manage their business through word of mouth. Prices for a full month’s rental of a well-located apartment should cost about U$S 600.

Argentinians in general are tourist friendly. Some knowledge of Spanish will help you more than you might think.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/5463 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/5534 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/5534 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/5448 www.welcomeargentina.com (general tourism);
