I'm from Argentina and in my opinion, Buenos Aires is safe, just beware of your belongings in public transportation and crowded areas. I suggest visiting the San Telmo Market and its neighborhood, Puerto Madero, Recoleta cemetery, Ateneo library, and Palermo neighborhood. Buenos Aires is huge and there's so much to do.
Posted: September 27, 2023Went to Buenos Aires in December and had a great time. I only know a few words of Spanish but managed to get by. I used the hop-on hop-off tour bus as an easy way to get around all the main sightseeing spots. I had a travel-safe bag that I kept close to me at all times, as I would in any big city, but didn't have any issues. There's loads to see and do, and great food and drink!
Posted: September 25, 2023I was in Buenos Aires for a month solo and loved it. I stayed in the Recoleta neighborhood and wandered around on my own and felt safe. I highly recommend learning some Spanish especially if you’ll be using Uber or taxi as I found the drivers did not speak English.
Posted: September 11, 2023I visited Buenos Aires last year in June and felt safe. The weather was perfect. I stayed near the Obelisco so everything was within walking distance. I enjoyed the city very much, especially the wine and food. I also enjoyed watching the tango (my favorite dance).
Posted: July 30, 2023I mostly stayed in Micro Centro, Belgrano, and Palermo so I can only really speak to these areas. Palermo was the most walkable and had many work friendly cafes. Amazing options for restaurants, nightlife. Plaza Serrano and San Telmo have great markets during the weekends. In my experience very safe but as the case with all major cities safe keep an eye on petty crime. A friend of mine had their phone swiped from their hand while navigating late at night.
Posted: June 27, 2023Experienced: May, 2022I traveled for three months around South America, and spent a week in Buenos Aires - the only place I felt unsafe. All of the taxi drivers were absolute scumbags and swapped our money for fake money on numerous occasions.
Posted: April 17, 2023Buenos Aires is safe for a solo traveler. I spent the month of February there and stayed in Palermo Hollywood. So much to do, great food and bars, easy to get around, and cheap.
Posted: April 13, 2023I was there in February and stayed five days - we walked around at night by ourselves to various restaurants and had a wonderful time and felt completely safe. We took taxis everywhere and never had a single problem. We stayed in the Palermo district. We were definitely warned though to not hold your cell phone out in public places and you make sure that your purse is close to your body so nobody can grab it and run.
Posted: April 10, 2023I took a solo trip to Buenos Aires and had an excellent time. The food was great and reasonably priced, and there were many neighborhoods to explore. Must-See: San Telmo Market, La Boca with a tango show, Palermo, and Recoleta.
Posted: April 10, 2023I liked the different barrios, the variety in food, things to do/see, the atmosphere. Very intersting history and friendly people!
Posted: April 3, 2023I’m a foodie, so here’s a list of all my favorite food places. Best restaurants in Buenos Aires: Hierbabuena (a bit expensive, but sooo good and many vegetarian and vegan options) Artemisia (vegetarian) Tandoor (Indian) Loving Hut (vegan) - the one in the center has good burgers, but the one in Palermo is better for dinner Saigon (Vietnamese) Che Taco (Mexican) Best cafes: Obrador (bakery with good coffee) Le Blé (French) Casa Telma Best burgers: El Banco Rojo (burger of the week usually the best) Loving hut Burger Joint (have to try!!) La Puerta Roja Best pizzas: Cosi mi Piace The Pizza Only one true love Sr. Telmo Pizza vegana Also I’m a vegetarian, and I know that Argentine steak is a big part of the experience, so a lot of these places serve meat too. Encuentro Nativo in La Boca (caminito) serves meat so tender you can cut it with a spoon.

Hello! I am Marlene from Germany, I started traveling solo in September 2021 and have been traveling through six African countries ever since. My goal is definitely to see as much from the earth as possible and I already learnt so much about cultures, traditions, beliefs, life and myself that I feel like I don’t want to stop traveling and exploring at all! I love to meditate, I do yoga regularly, would love to do my breathwork certification next year and am passionate about everything regarding philosophy and psychology! I love good, vegan food, good books and conversations that spark something inside of me.
