I am from BA, but I am envious of the people who have the opportunity to come to see Buenos Aires for the first time, a lot of things to do and watch !!!
Hi Saul, thanks for watching! Yes, BA has a TON of things to do and see. What an amazing city! :)
I'm going there, today!! Any suggestions? Since your a local. SALUDOS
Your channel is by FAR the best of any travel channel, not only for Argentina, but for anywhere. Clear, informative accurate, insightful, interesting, well-produced information, and on and on. Thanks very much!
Wow thank you, Jeff. That is a massive compliment! I really appreciate it! Enjoy your trip to Argentina!
One thing to note about buses is that there are a lot of routes that have several branches, so telling the bus driver where you're going is more than important.
El tren urquiza es el subte de la superficie
اجمل بلد في العالم El país más hermoso del mundo, Argentina, encantador, saludos desde Argelia
Tal cual! Gracias Mehdi!
Hello Algeria 🇩🇿!! 👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️💞
Love your videos. I'm headed to Argentina in 6 weeks and can't wait!
Hi Betty, thank you so much! I hope you'll enjoy Argentina! :)
SUPER JEALOUS OF YOU ~!! Lol 👍👍😍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🇦🇷💞
the scanners on the side of the "molinetes" are for cards used by employees of the metro system, also it has the old slot right on the bottom of that scanner for the old paper cards wich are now outdated by the SUBE.
But they still work, usually if the metro suddenly stoped working and you are told to get our of the subte they give you a paper card valid for 1 free travel.
Well Nicki I'm Argentinian but I must admit, for a foreign girl you really know how to get around my city of Buenos Aires! I mean it is a massive city and even for other Argentinians that are from different parts of Argentina it can be intimidating let alone a woman from another country!!! Felicidades y saludos!!!
Hi Carlos, thank you so much, what a compliment!! :) Thanks for watching!!
Such an awesome comment !! A BIG HELLO to ARGENTINA from Los Angeles !! I am Japanese who loves your country ,especially your dragon fossile ( gotta go see it !!!! )& footballers !!! 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🇦🇷💕💞
@@NickiPostsTravelStuff What a great compliment !! I am so glad that I subbed to your channel !! Argentine approved !! Lol 👍👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🇦🇷💞
@@spark_6710 haha thanks again!!! :) I really appreciate your support!
@@NickiPostsTravelStuff You're so very welcome !! Keep up with the good work !! 👏 👍👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🇦🇷💞
I remember as a kid taking the bus with my mom and paying cash and getting a small ticket. SUBE is so much easier...
Yes, it's SO MUCH easier!!
This is the video that I needed 5 years ago when I first came to BsAs!!! I've been here 6 times now and public transport has always been challenging, purely because there is very little information about HOW you navigate colectivos and the subte and some of the apps don't work for non-Argentines. It took me ages to understand I needed to know my destination so I could tell the bus driver where I was going 😂. This video is by far the best I've seen with specifics about how the subte works. Thank you so much for making it!
There used to be to extra stations, Pasco sur and Alberti norte, they are closed; that's why Alberti and Pasco are like that.
I would like to recommend you the applications "Como llego"(similar to google maps) and "Cuando Subo" lets you know how much you have to wait for the next bus(if the time appears in blue is that the app is tracking the next bus, if it appears in grey it's the time the bus "should" pass)
Those are great suggestions, thank you so much for mentioning those other apps!! :)
Really detailed video 📸! Thank you so much.
Thanks for watching, Freedom! :)
احب الارجنتين 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇩🇿🇩🇿
awesome info! headed down and your videos are very helpful!
Great, I love to hear that. I hope you have a fantastic trip! :)
That was an amazing BA public transport guide!
Thank you so much, I hope it's helpful! :)
I'm in BA for my first time while watching this video. I've ridden 3 buses now and didn't know I had to tell them my stop, haha. This was great information. Thank you!
hahahaha Sounds like my first several weeks too! I didn't understand what I needed to do and just scanned my card and walked by. Later I realized my card never actually scanned because I had never informed the driver where I was going. They probably just thought I was a dumb foreigner and let me go! hahaha But finally one day while I waited for the bus, I realized I had probably been doing something wrong, and asked the woman at the stop with me how it all works. After that I felt much more confident getting on the buses! :)
I loved this video! I just lost my subte card and I didn’t t know the process of getting another and this helped me out so much!
Oh yay I'm so happy to hear that, so glad it helped! :)
How did you get the first one? Just kidding...lol!! 😝!
I am from the City of Buenos Aires and of course I already knew everything! But it's pretty interesting to see the perspective of a foreign :) One thing that I wish Buenos Aires would do a better job with it's information for tourists, you would NEVER know that you need a SUBE card that you have to purchase in kiosks if you don't research before. Wish there'd be signs and a more friendly way of selling them.
hahaha Buenos Aires and Argentina, honestly, make nearly everything difficult for tourists. You need a DNI to do most things and a ton of websites don't work and/or have outdated info, and they NEVER work in English. It's definitely a harder place to travel, but worth it! :)
Such a sweet traveler welcoming / supportive comment !! I love your country !! A BIG HELLO from Los Angeles !! I am planning to visit your country in a couple of years !!! It's been in my bucket list for decades !! 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🇦🇷🐧🐲💞
@@NickiPostsTravelStuff That's a bit discouraging !! But,that's why I am subbed to your wonderful channel !! Lol.👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🇦🇷💞
@@spark_6710 Thank you so much, Spark!! ❤️
@@NickiPostsTravelStuff Not at all !! You're so appreciated by so many !! 👍👍💜🥁🐉🎤🎶✈️🇦🇷💞
Another incredibly informative video! You really went all out on the animations. Looks great! 🙂 *claps*
hahahah you know how I feel about animations! :) Thanks for watching Gringster!
Awesome detailed information. Thanks you are my rock star!
🪨🌟 hahahhaa thank you, Jim! Thanks for watching! :)
Thanks for such practical information. I was there. In December. But I was too shy to take the underground or buses. Taxi’s are not expensive so that’s the way I got around in this stunningly beautiful city.
This is GOOD content. Thank you!
Oh yayyy so glad it helped! :)
Thank you, Nicki, your vids are so helpful, many thanks, all the best!!
Great stuff, thanks!
Well done Nicki - very helpful!
Thank you, David! I'm glad it will help! :)
Another amazing video! We have no concerns about getting around because you laid everything out so well. Appreciate the list of apps, even if they are not ideal.
Thank you so much, Will & Katy! I hope you'll make it here! :)
Good stuff Nicki!
Thank you, Edward! :)
Also heads up they updated the Subte Fee from $30 to $42 pesos in early october i think, Keep it up!!
Oh awesome, thank you so much for the update! :)
Soy de Buenos Aires. Me sorprende cuan precisa y completa es la informacion de este video. Muy buen trabajo! Congrats =D
Looking forward to to trip thanks❤
Excellent information !!!
So glad it helps! :)
Muchas gracias hermana! I’m heading to Argentina in February, Mendoza and BA, from Santiago then to Montevideo via Buquebus. I watched several of your videos and they were all useful and informative. So, thank you very much from the Canadian high Arctic.
That's great, I love to hear that my videos have been helpful! :) Have a fantastic time in Argentina!!! :)
great info girl, thanks
Thank you for watching!! :)
super helpful :)
I'm so glad to hear that! :)
Your posts are very useful!!… me encanta!… im moving to BA ….I always loved riding the buses… got to see the city that way😁…. Thank you for the helpful info…
Aw thank you so much. So glad to help! :) I also like the buses- it really helps to get to know the city. Have the best time in BA!
Thank you soooo much!!!
You’re sooooooo welcome:)
Corrección:Alberti y Pasco son estaciones independientes,solo que oir su cercania en 1953 se clausuraron los andenes Alberti Norte (Dirección a Plaza de Mayo) y Pasco Sur (Dirección a Primera Junta en ese momento,dirección a San Pedrito al día de hoy)
Gracias por la historia! :)
Me encanta que las palabras en castellano las dice en el típico español porteño :-) Love that she speaks the Spanish words in Rioplatense Spanish :-) A few things have changed, but overall a great video!
Olá boa noite buenos Aires é bom se moraria lá obrigado pelas dicas
🇫🇷🇱🇻🇰🇵🇳🇱🇨🇭🇩🇴🇪🇸🇨🇦🇬🇧🇦🇷🇲🇽🇱🇮🇩🇪🇫🇰🇦🇹🇲🇪
The thing about having to let the Bus driver know where you're going is crazy! Just make it a flat rate already! I suppose is not fair if only going a few blocks but c'mon, when you go farther then it will be "a wash"..😝 😝!
last time i went to BA, SUBE wasn't even a thing lol, and im from Argentina!
fantastic video
Haha yes! It didn’t exist my first time either. But it’s so convenient to have now! :)
Subway stations do connect underground when transferring trains
Saludos y felicitaciones!!!
Gracias El Franky! :)
@@NickiPostsTravelStuff very good video! congratulations!
@@elfrankyconel47 Thank you! :)
hello and thanks a million for all the info you share about buenos aires. I am travling for the first time and by watching your videos I already know everything I need to know. It will make my trip a breeze I think. But I downloaded the BA taxi app and only see spanish on the app home page. Whats the solution to translate in english?
The thing about having to let the driver know where you're going is crazy! Just make it a flat rate already!
I suppose is fair that you wont pay as much if youre just going a few block but c'mon, when you go farther it will be "a wash". 😝!
Hi Nicki, great vlog! Does the SUBE card also works in other cities in Argentina and where to find that information?
Hi Michel, thanks so much. From what I've seen, the SUBE works in Mendoza and Bariloche. It does NOT work in Cordoba. There may be other places as well, but those are the ones I've seen! :)
Subte doesn't go outside the city. In fact it doesn't even go near the city limits, you'd have to move, in some cases, about 20 blocks to get to the city limit. A common mistake among tourists that only move in the touristic area, Buenos Aires is a massive city, almost three times the size of Manhattan, two times the size of Paris; it has 48 neighborhoods and most tourists only move in 5/6.
WOW.....looks like the perfect retirement place.....for this North American. On my list......
Is there an UBER service in Buenos Aires that uses a 6 passenger van for a large family while visiting Buenos Aires?
Just use google maps to get around, real time updates of when buses arrive, etc
Google Maps is not always very accurate in BA. But this video isn't about informing people bus times. It's about all the modes of transport and how to do it because every place is different.
Thank you for making this video! Is it currently possible to take Uber from EZE into the city? I read online that the airport free wifi blocks the app...is that true?
I haven’t heard of it blocking Uber but I also wouldn’t be surprised. I suggest taking a private from EZE to the city. It’s $30, and will make your life so much easier after arriving from an international flight. Emilio is the best, send him a WhatsApp message: +54 9 11 5905 8226
I've been following your channel since I've temporarily moved to BA, but I have absolutely no idea where to actually buy a card - I've watched several videos and it's not very clear where these kiosks are. Thanks for the great content!!
Hi Gio, thank you so much! The kioskos are all over the place. Like every after block has 1-2. There is a big franchise called Jevi, but there are a ton of smaller ones everywhere. Just look for a small place that has candy, drinks, etc. if they have a blue SUBE sign in the window, you should be able to get a card there. You should also be able to buy a card in the bigger Subte stations as well. Best of luck! :)
@@NickiPostsTravelStuff I went into a couple of the corner stores but they said they didn't sell them, only recharge - I'll try out the Jevi otherwise hit up the Subte. Such a fast reply, thank you so much!!
@@sergnio No problem! I know for a while there was a scarcity of cards, so maybe they’re still having issues. I hope you’ll be able to get one! :)
@@NickiPostsTravelStuff 100% still having supply issues - I visited 4 Jevis around the city and a total of 17 kioskos and 0 of them have any in stock!!
@@sergnio This is so frustrating. I'm really sorry you're having that issue. Still no sube? Can you message me on IG? I'll see if I can help you out! @NickiPostsStuff
Wow, it's changed. I went when the buses took cash! It was chaotic. How much is the full bus fare? I think it's so little I would avoid the destination chat with bus driver by just saying "hasta el final". Are the buses all one entity now? They used to be all different ownerships. They definitely didn't have air conditioning. Do they now? You needed to have the little Guia T book for the bus lines.
Can I use one card for two passengers both on the Subte and colectivos?
You can!! :)
How is the disability access like Elevators
Isn’t the Subte a train?
Yes, it's a subway train. Subte is short for subterraneo.
Awesome! Reliable and cheap public transport. Do they also run super late?
Thanks Calvin! Super cheap and reliable. This is what I found on the BA tourism page for subte: "about 5.30am to 11.30pm Monday to Friday, 6.00am to midnight on Saturdays, and 8.00am to 10.30pm on Sundays and public holidays." Buses are 24h/day.
@@NickiPostsTravelStuff Thanks for researching that for me!
@@calvinwilliams1919 hahha no problem. I knew I had seen the subte gates closed before but couldn't remember what time.
Colectivos (buses) work 24 hs.
Subte (Subway system) works from 5:00 to 23:00 aprox.
Dogs ok to accompany?
Do you know of any expat websites for English speakers in Argentina? I am trying to find out more about what electronics I can bring to Argentina and resell. Thanks.
Check out the BA Expat Hub on FB!
wow....such beautiful eyes..
Why not pay with credit card?
I miss another transport, the "REMIS."..
Isn't that almost the same as taxi?
@@NickiPostsTravelStuff It is like a kind of Uber, but it has been in operation for 60 years in the country
Prívate car from an agency
How about Uber?
Yup, Uber is available. Though I have heard it can be hard to use from the airport. I prefer to use BA Taxi since the money will go to a real local taxi person, rather than an American company. But it is available.
Cabify and Didi are widespread too
Oye nicki deberias prender idioma español
uber is alive and well in Cordoba 😂
This video is a bit dated. Ticket prices on both buses and metro have gone up with inflation, as well as the price to buy the SUBE in the first place.
Que devaluado quedo este video
60 cents? More like 11 cents.
