Car Rental at Buenos Aires Airport Ezeiza

Airport travel guide

The capital of Argentina, Buenos Aires is frequently called one of the most impressive cities in the Americas. Although often compared to Old World metropolises like Paris, it has its own unmistakable atmosphere and charm. These are four of its most notable attractions:

• Teatro Colón. Often mentioned as one of, if not the, best opera houses in the New World, Teatro Colón is an unmistakable symbol of Buenos Aires. First opened in the 1850s, its reconstruction in the early 21st century took around five years, but the long wait was worth it. Visit the theater’s website to learn more about upcoming shows and tickets.
• National Fine Arts Museum. Another pride of the city, the stunning museum has works not just by just famous Argentine artists, but also by globally renowned masters like Rubens, Goya, Picasso, and many, many others. The museum is in the classy Recoleta neighborhood known for its upscale restaurants and many parks.
• Caminito. A pedestrian avenue known for its street art, colorful facades, and impromptu tango performances, Caminito is perhaps the Buenos Aires that many visitors have in mind. The street is in the hip La Boca neighborhood, home to the Boca Juniors football team, and the whole area is worth a long, slow-paced visit.
• Palermo Viejo. The namesake of the Sicilian capital, Palermo is a northern barrio of Buenos Aires and one of the most popular areas of the Argentine capital. While most of the neighborhood is made up of highrise buildings, its oldest part, Palermo Viejo, is known for its historical architecture and has unsurprisingly been turned into a fashionable hotspot of galleries, cafeterias, and restaurants, and is also the location of several well-known landmarks.

Nearest gas station

A Puma station is located at the airport. Unfortunately, it is located near the exit of the airport, so you will have to make a complete circle to reach it and then again to reach the rental car returns after filling up.

To avoid any last-minute hassles, plan your trip accordingly and ensure that you have enough time to refuel your rental car before returning it. Filling up the tank prior to returning the vehicle is usually required by rental car companies to avoid additional fees.
