Solo Female Travel in Buenos Aires

Solo travel

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! ;))

Family travel

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”

Solo travel

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!

Solo travel

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).

Solo travel

I traveled for three months throughout South America, and I spent a week in Buenos Aires - the only place where I felt unsafe. All the taxi drivers were absolute scoundrels and they often exchanged our money for counterfeit.

Buenos Aires is safe for a solo traveler. I spent the month of February there and stayed in Palermo Hollywood. There is a lot to do, great food and bars, it's easy to get around and it's cheap.

Group travel

I was there in February and stayed for five days - we walked alone at night through various restaurants and had a great time, feeling completely safe. We took taxis everywhere and never had any problems. We stayed in the Palermo district. However, we were definitely warned not to display our mobile phone in public places and to make sure the purse is close to the body so nobody could grab it and run away.

Buenos aires, as any big city, is beatiful because of its atractions and streets full of culture, but it always depends on the boroughs and the time you are in that place. There are many people sleeping on the street and eating what they can. From what I have experienced, they are drunk or high, and they will ask you for money or food. Please be careful everywhere with the thieves that steal in seconds from your pockets, bags or hands. Mostly, they steal phones on the street, the subway or the bus. When far from the center, the danger increases

it always depends on where you are. It's a big city, so you need to be careful and watch out. Personally i've always had good experiences, I love the city, but you need to be aware. there are zones that it's better if you don't walk alone by night.

I am a foodie, so here is a list of my favorite food places. Best restaurants in Buenos Aires: Hierbabuena (a bit pricey, but very good, many vegetarian and vegan options) Artemisia (vegetarian) Tandoor (Indian) Loving Hut (vegan) - the one downtown 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 (the burger of the week is usually the best) Loving hut Burger Joint (you must try!!) La Puerta Roja Best pizzas: Cosi mi Piace The Pizza Only one true love Sr. Telmo Pizza vegana I am also a vegetarian, and I know that Argentine steak is an important part of the experience, so many of these places also serve meat. Encuentro Nativo in La Boca (caminito) serves such tender meat that you can cut it with a spoon.
