Buenos Aires international airport (Ministro Pistarini, unofficially called Ezeiza) is 35 km southwest of the center. To get from the airport to your host family or hotel (if you are not using our free airport pick up service) you can take either an airport bus (services run by several companies. Look for their signs when exiting customs) about $11 to the city center or a taxi (around $35. Agree on the price before getting in). Public buses (marked ‘Duvi’) will take you to the center in 1½ hour for $4.

If you arrive to Buenos Aires at the ‘Aeroparque’ (when flying domestic or from other Latin American countries with a stop over in Argentina), which is located 4km north of the center, you can take an airport bus for $5 (every 30 min), a public bus (no. 45) for $0.70 or a taxi ($7.50).
