Really one of the best places in LATAMand that coming from a Brazilian is a big deal, I love BA, the vibe, the food, everything you can experience, how international it is, the parties!!! And etc. I would be worried though of the price now because they're passing through a crisis.

I really liked Buenos Aires and overall it's pretty safe, just be informed about the different quarters of the city. You have to try neapolean style pizza which is one of the best I had and make sure to have fun

I am Brazilian, I stayed 30 days in Buenos Aires, and I felt safer than I would in the big cities of my country. Public transportation works very well, and the city has good infrastructure with sidewalks, parks, cafés, and pleasant places to walk around (this was my favorite part). Argentine beef and barbecue are incredible! However, I found everyday food to be nothing special. The bars and clubs there open very late at night, the party usually only stars at 1am and goes all the way to 5 or 6 am. And again, I felt safe walking alone at night in the nicer areas of the city. Here are some recommendations: - Feria de Mataderos: Definitely a MUST DO, it's every Sunday, very cultural, with live traditional music and street food. Around the square, there is the Museo Criollo de Los Corrales. Inside, there's an old bar where I found some gentlemen playing guitar; it was very touching. - El Boliche de Roberto: A bar with 130 years of history, with live tango literally every day of the week. The performances are very intimate and beautiful. - Bar El Federal: Great options for snacks, cheap wine, fair prices, beautiful decor, and the bar has over 100 years of history.

Buenos Aires is one of my favourite cities in the world! Full of life and cultural activities, it is the vibrant home of thousands of Argentinians (some of the kindest and most welcoming people I've ever met!). Of course, there are some areas you should avoid, especially at night, and should be aware of your surroundings at all times, but besides it did not feel particularly dangerous as a woman travelling solo! Would defenitely recommend!! (But pro tip: learn some basic Spanish first! ;))

My trip to Buenos Aires was so memorable, food, people, public transportation, were amazing. I didnt have high expectations but Buenos Aires its such a beautiful and safe city and cant wait to be back soon. I loved every second I spent there, pizza, media lunas, asado and milanesas were my favorite thing, going to la boca, la casa rosada, san telmo, recoleta, av 9 de julio, etc. I highly recommend trying the restaurant “petalo” and “el imperio de la pizza”

I come from Argentina and in my opinion, Buenos Aires is safe, just watch out for your belongings in public transportation and in crowded areas. I suggest visiting San Telmo market and its surroundings, Puerto Madero, Recoleta cemetery, Ateneo library, and the Palermo district. Buenos Aires is huge and there are a lot of things to do there.

I went to Buenos Aires in December and had a great time. I only know a few words in Spanish, but I managed somehow. I used the "hop on-hop off" tourist bus as an easy way to get to all the main sightseeing spots. I had a safe travel bag that I kept with me at all times, as in any big city, but I didn't have any problems. There are plenty of attractions and things to do, and the food and drink are fantastic!

I was in Buenos Aires alone for a month and I had a really good time there. I stayed in the Recoleta district and walked alone, feeling safe. I highly recommend learning Spanish, especially if you plan to use Uber or a taxi, as I noticed that drivers do not speak English.

I visited Buenos Aires last year in June and I felt safe. The weather was perfect. I stayed near the Obelisk, so everything was within walking distance. I really loved this city, especially the wine and food. I also enjoyed watching tango (my favorite dance).

Like any Big city, Buenos Aires can be crowded and there can be pickpocketters. Overall if You stay in the Nice neighborhoods like Palermo, Colegiales and nearby, there are lots of policemen, so there shouldn't be a problem.

I believe that Buenos Aires can be dangerous, but it all depends on the area and the time. There are places where it is recommended to be very attentive at any time of the day. And there are also places where it is preferable not to walk alone at night. But there are also very calm areas.
