I traveled to Bariloche, and I felt safe as a solo traveller. The weather was not very cooperative, but I managed to see wonderful places. Cerro Campanario has the best views by far. It is easy and cheap to take bus 20 from the center. I would also recommend to visit the Llao Llao cafeteria for gorgeous views. To enjoy the lakes I would recommend a boat tour to Bosque de Arrayanes. The food was great. Argentina has the best meat in the world, but also yummy cakes and chocolates. For best ice cream I recommend Mamushka.
Posted: November 16, 2023Experienced: November, 2023I went to Argentina alone. I embarked on a combined horseback and hiking expedition in the Patagonia region, with a several-day stay in Buenos Aires. I felt very safe. The locals advised me to stay away from a certain area of Buenos Aires, but all the time, throughout the country, I felt very comfortable. It's beautiful and the food is great.
Posted: September 9, 2023Argentina is a very cool country and there are many places to visit. Jujuy, Salta, Iguazu Falls, Mendoza, Bariloche. Buenos Aires and Cordoba were my favorite cities. You need to have cash, as not all places accept credit cards. I traveled alone and didn't have any problems, but it's not the safest country I've visited.
Posted: July 29, 2023I went to Ushuaia, Buenos Aires, Cordoba, and Mendoza in Argentina, and then I took a ferry from Buenos Aires to Colonia del Sacramento in Uruguay and spent the weekend there, and then about a week in Montevideo. I never felt unsafe - I stayed with an old friend in Montevideo, though I mostly roamed around alone.
Posted: February 7, 2023Beautiful places, great hikes, and lots of nature. Also many small charming towns that you can simply wander around. Very safe while traveling alone, and I did almost everything by (night) buses.

I went to Mendoza and visited the vineyards. Then I went to Cordoba and went on a walking tour. Next, Puerto Iguazu, where I crossed the border with Brazil to see the waterfall from both sides (the Argentine side is better, but both are amazing - I could spend a few days there). Then I went to Buenos Aires and I really liked it there. I went on walking tours, visited markets, and enjoyed tango lessons. I crossed the border into Uruguay for a few days. I was travelling alone, using public buses.

Great budget-friendly country with lots of different programs for different ages. Really kind people and nice weather. I really enjoyed walking around the town but I must advise that the public transportation (specially the subway) is not well taken care of.
