Fellows travelers, be careful of curbside cabs in Buenos Aires. Last week I took one from the AEP to EZE .....and it cost me Arg Peso 300. The meter showed about 340, but I protested and gave 300 and walked away. The normal fare should be half that. I suggest buy the coupon in the airport and take one of those cabs, instead of the curb side ones.

My friend, we have been writing about those taxis ad nauseam , I am so sorry you did not read any of the many posts in Fodors on this unpleasant subject.

Yes Graziella5b. Wished I had taken the time to search this and other such forums....and read the experiences of others. Glad to be on Fodors now.

As Graziella5b points out, we have endlessly warned tourists NOT to take cabs from the line outside our local airport, known as AEP. Take a "remise" from one of the booths inside the airport and PREPAY for your trip.

Thank you BeramKumar for your update to the cautions about taking Taxis from the curb at BsAs airports/ports.

Thank you Beram Kumar for alerting on a sad situation regarding some taxis.
i am sorry to learn that you find out the hard way, but we have all learnt the hard way some
lessons while traveling.....have we not?

I wish to add thank Fodors for helping us to be better inform , giving us tools to avoid bad situations like the taxi Beram took in Bs As.
