Traveling with cash to ArgentinaQ: I feel uneasy about carrying large amounts of US cash to Argentina and find travelers checks cumbersome to use epically in outlying areas.. Given the above, can we use our American Visa Debit cards to get money from our checking account while in Argentina or are our credit cards incompatible with the Argentine banking system ATM machines. A: Traveling with cash to Argentina is only recommended in small amounts. The amount we suggest is no more than 500 US dollars. If you will take a taxi from the airport, we suggest that you hire the ones that are offered at the airports in stands that say they are licensed. Never take a cab that is standing outside waiting for people as this could be a problem. ATM machines in Buenos Aires, Argentina work the same way that works in other parts of the world as in the US or Europe. You can take local currency from any ATM. Wr always recommend to be careful and try to take money out from not isolated ATM machines. In Adrogue you will find a selection of banks and because the town is pretty secured, we never had anyone experience a bad situation. Needless to say, be careful in Argentina as you are careful in other parts of the world. We accept payments with cash and through paypal services for deposits only Q: I do have one question and I suppose it tells me somewhere on the Teresita bed and breakfast website but it seems easier to just ask you. How do we pay for the balance that we owe. Can we use one of our credit cards? We just hate to carry so much cash to Argentian it seems dangerous to be walking around with cash in Buenos Aires. A: We only accept a 10% of your total amount through paypal as noted on our website, but we can make an exception in this case and accept full payment.
