Buenos Aires Public Transportation
Buses are a convenient and cost-effective mode of public transportation in Buenos Aires, with tickets averaging around 1.25 ARS (depending on distance). There are no fixed fares; instead, you pay separately for each trip, so it's a good idea to have change on hand to purchase a ticket from the machine.
Metro is another affordable mode of transportation in Buenos Aires, the price of a trip - similar to the bus. If we compare buses and subways, it should be noted that while the former run around the clock here, the subway schedule is limited - from 6am to 10pm.
