Buenos Aires questions

Is 4 days enough for Buenos Aires?

Four days covers the central neighborhoods at a steady pace. Use the Subte for longer hops and reserve dinner tables ahead.

Do I need to book Recoleta Cemetery ahead?

No ticket is required for Recoleta Cemetery. Arrive before 10am to skip the main entrance line.

How do I get from San Telmo to Palermo?

Take the Subte Line D from Independencia to Bulnes then walk or use an Uber for the final stretch. A single Subte ride costs about 0.30 USD.

When should I visit Plaza Dorrego Flea Market?

The market runs Sundays from 10am to 5pm. Arrive at opening to avoid peak crowds and higher prices later in the day.
