💧 Tap Water
Drinking tap water is generally safe in Argentina, but high mineral content may upset your stomach. So, the safest recommendation: drink bottled water.
💰 Tipping
Like most other countries, tipping is not obligatory but expected. You may leave a gratuity depending on the service you receive. Tipping 10% when you’re satisfied is more than enough. Don’t think you have to leave tipping for poor service!
🈯 Language
Spanish is the official language in Argentina. However, due to a large number of international immigrants, German, English, French, Italian, and Arabic are also spoken. Italian with about 1.5 million speakers is the second on the list. Don’t expect fluent English speakers in Argentina as English is rated down the list.
💸 Cash
Peso is the official currency in Argentina. You can easily change USD to pesos at exchange houses. You can also withdraw pesos at most ATMs around the city. However, there’re transaction and withdrawal limitations for cards per day.
👗 Dress
Dressy shoes and nice pants are popular along with jeans and t-shirts. Women in Argentina enjoy very feminine clothing; they don’t like to wear sneakers even while they’re wearing jeans! Enjoy wearing summer dresses, but watch out: not to wear too short! Shorts are not much popular. Argentines still tend to wear classy even in hot summers.
🌐 Wi-Fi
Having difficulty finding an internet connection in Argentina is comic. Almost all hotels, restaurants, airports, and many public areas in Argentina have free Wi-Fi.
🔌 Adaptors
Plug types C, with two round pins, and type I, a triangular-three flat pin plug, are used in Argentina. Appliances operate on 220V. Heading to Argentina from the USA? Pack a plug adapter.
👮 Safety
Argentina is of the safest countries to travel to in Latin America, but expect trivial crime. Don’t use expensive jewelry in populated places, and take care of your properties to stay safe!
⚠️ Believe it or not: showing up on time in Argentina is considered impolite. Try to arrive late, for instance, 20-40 min, is usual impressing your Argentine’s host.
