Buenos Aires

The best time to visit Buenos Aires is during the spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May) months. The weather is pleasant, with mild temperatures and less humidity compared to the summer months. You'll also avoid the peak tourist season.

Some of the top attractions in Buenos Aires include the colorful La Boca neighborhood, the historic Plaza de Mayo, the elegant Recoleta Cemetery, the iconic Teatro Colón opera house, and the trendy Palermo district. Don't miss a tango show!

Argentinians, especially in Buenos Aires, are known for their warmth and hospitality. It's customary to greet people with a kiss on the cheek (one on the right cheek) when meeting and saying goodbye. Punctuality is not always strictly observed, and mealtimes are typically later than in other cultures. Also, be prepared to speak some Spanish, although many people in tourist areas speak English.

Buenos Aires has a comprehensive public transportation system. The Subte (subway) is an efficient way to get around, and buses (colectivos) cover a wide network. Taxis and ride-sharing services like Uber are also readily available. Walking is a great way to explore many neighborhoods.

You must try the local cuisine! Indulge in a delicious 'asado' (barbecue), empanadas, and milanesa (breaded and fried meat). Enjoy a traditional afternoon tea with pastries and coffee. Explore the many 'parrillas' (steakhouses) and cafes throughout the city. Don't forget to try the dulce de leche!
