Preferably U$D Cash or Euros.  Paying in local currency is also possible, although we need to agree beforehand. It is possible to make a payment via PayPal  at an 10% extra charge (that is the cost of transferring the money from your account to mine and then to my bank account).

In some occasions I may require a deposit. 

During a walking tour: your feet, of course! And public transport if necessary. We can take the occational Taxi/Uber. 

Do not want to walk that much? No problem! I can organize a private vehicle: 

• Private Car U$S 30/hour.
• Minivan (15 seats) U$S 50/hour. 

VEHICLES MUST BE RESERVED AHEAD OF TIME. 

Yes, of course! I can provide safe transport with one of my trusted drivers.

Private car: The cost is USD 50 + USD 10 per waiting hour. From Ezeiza International Airport to downtown accommodation. Can fit 2 people with luggage.

Van/ MIni bus: costs vary according to the size. 

Despite some bad press, Taxis are pretty reliable, safe, and cheap.

All taxis must have a clock meter that the driver switches on once the ride starts. You can stop the taxi in the street and in some randomly placed "paradas" (stops).

When a taxi is available, a red light is lit at the top-left front window with the sign "Libre" (free). Put your arm up to the side, and the taxi is yours. I love the red light, you can spot when a taxi is free from afar!

Up to four people can be taken in each taxi. This number is non-negotiable.

The taxi fare changes after 10 pm, which is slightly more expensive. All taxis must have their license and fare cost exhibited for the passenger in the back seat.

Should you tip the driver? Locals, when feeling generous, tend to round up the pay to a full number. If you are feeling generous as well, you can tip 10%, and you will be remembered like the coolest of gringos.

Like anywhere in the world, here taxi drivers have the reputation of going around in circles to charge a bit. Just be aware that sometimes that is the only option they have. Most of our streets are one-way.

The best and easiest way is tapping your credit/debit card at the access points of any public transport.

You can also purchase a SUBE card. You can buy it in some kiosks at a small cost, but you will need to charge additional credit. The same kiosk should have the ability to add credit, but it is not mandatory, so you might end up shopping around kiosks to do so. The best option is making your way to a subway station, where they will do the charge.

Any number of passengers can use the same card as long as there is credit on it.

• Subway: runs from around 7am to 11:30 pm (depending on which direction you go)
• Buses: most of the lines have night services at a much reduced frequency.
• Trains: better to avoid them at night (if they run). During the day, you should wait to become acquainted with the service and line. Better to get advice from a local.

Buenos Aires is a fairly safe city. You will see uniformed police in many corners.

The dodgy areas are far from any area that most tourists visit. If you are planning to wander beyond the classics, common sense will help you by asking the locals.

Bags, cameras, tablets, or any other valuables should not be left unattended

Do NOT hang your bag from your chair. Leave it on your lap or wrapped around your leg.
