Argentina is a vast country, so planning transportation is vital. For long distances (like going to Patagonia), internal flights are the fastest option, although long-distance buses are comfortable and much more economical. In Buenos Aires, the Subte (metro) is efficient and cheap. You will need a SUBE card to use public transport in many cities, including colectivos (buses) and trains. Taxis and ride-sharing apps are available, but make sure to use registered services. If you travel to rural areas or Patagonia, consider renting a car for greater freedom of movement. Remember that distances are greater than in Peru, so always reserve extra time for transfers.

The accommodation offer in Argentina is very varied. In Buenos Aires, neighborhoods like Palermo, Recoleta, and San Telmo are popular among tourists. Palermo offers nightlife and parks, while Recoleta is more elegant and central. San Telmo is ideal for those seeking history and antique markets. In tourist cities like Bariloche or Mendoza, you will find everything from budget hostels to luxury cabins. It is always advisable to book in advance, especially if you travel during the high season (December to February or July). Comparing prices on TICKETS.PE not only helps you with **affordable flights to Buenos Aires** but also to plan your total travel budget, including accommodation.

The currency is the Argentine Peso (ARS). Historically, Argentina has had variable exchange rates. Although the use of credit and debit cards is common in large cities and tourist establishments, it is always good to carry some cash. When paying with a card, the official exchange rate is often applied. For Peruvian travelers, it is useful to know that US dollars are accepted in many places. Always check the exchange rates offered by your bank in Peru before traveling. ATMs are common, but they may have low withdrawal limits and high commissions. Plan your expenses and carry a mix of payment methods for greater security and convenience during your trip.

Argentine culture is vibrant and has strong European influences. Gastronomy is a highlight: you cannot leave without trying the asado (barbecue), empanadas, and, of course, Malbec. Meal times are later than in Peru; lunch is usually around 1:00 PM and dinner rarely before 9:00 PM. Mate is the social drink par excellence; if offered, it is a gesture of welcome. Regarding tips, it is customary to leave 10% in restaurants if the service was good. Argentinians are very passionate and direct in their conversations. Enjoy the nightlife, which usually starts very late, especially in Buenos Aires and Córdoba.

Argentina is generally safe, but as in any large city, you must be alert, especially in crowded tourist areas of Buenos Aires and Mendoza. Avoid showing valuables in public and keep your belongings secure on public transport. Be careful with pickpockets. While tango is beautiful, avoid street demonstrations where they ask for money in exchange for photos. For a more local experience, look for markets and less touristy neighborhoods, but always research beforehand. Remember that local people can always give you the best safety advice. For your peace of mind, carry digital copies of your important documents, separate from the originals.

Due to its extension, the Argentine climate varies greatly. If you travel to the north (Salta, Iguazú), pack light clothing and sunscreen, as it is subtropical. In the center (Buenos Aires, Mendoza), the seasons are well marked: hot summers and cool winters. If your destination is Patagonia (Bariloche, El Calafate, Ushuaia), even in summer you will need layers of clothing, including waterproof and thermal jackets. **Cheap flights to Ushuaia** take you to the 'End of the World', where the weather is unpredictable. The key is layered clothing, as you can experience all four seasons in a single day. Check the specific forecast for the cities you will visit.
