latest Argentina -BA reports ?
 

Anybody who's just came back from Argentina trip within last few months ? -As we're planning on going soon ,we would appreciate any feedback .Thanks again.

What would you like to know? <BR><BR>Weater:The summer was hot and muggy. With fall approaching, expect warm days and cool nights.<BR><BR>Currency: The rate of exchange has been trending downward...Yesterday it was about 3.09 pesos per dollar, but has been in a range between about 3.00-3.20 for several months. <BR><BR>ATMS: My Bank of America Master Card worked like a charm.<BR><BR>Safety: Adhere to the usual advice for any large city...use radio taxis at night, if there is a political protest go the other direction, watch for pickpockets, store most valuables in safety box in your room/hotel, etc. If you are American, don't draw attention to this fact by the way you dress (flag tshirts, etc) There is not much anti-American sentiment, but with the war looming, who knows...<BR><BR>Prices: Prices are up over a year ago, and the rate of exchange is down....so expect to pay a little more, though Buenos Aires is still a bargain for a large city....<BR><BR>My one real gripe is with some hotels and virtually all Argentina-based airlines that have adopted a dual price structure so Argentinos are charged one price and foreigners are charged another, much greater price. The difference is often more than double....<BR><BR>Overall, Argentina remains my favorite travel destination on earth! <BR><BR>Anything else?<BR><BR>anything I did not cover?

Thank you &quot;drdawggy&quot; for the info.I've read a lot of this board , just wonder if there's any changes lately that I should be aware of .Thanks again.<BR>Anyone else please?

What drdawggy says it´s correct. The only change that will take place is that we are having elections in April. That is all. As for the rest, I agree with drdawggy. If you have any question just post it and we´ll try to help you. Enjoy your trip!

thanks guys !
