Parque Nacional del Iguazł Travel Forum

Hi,
We'll be travelling to Buenos Aires this coming March for a little over two weeks. We plan to leave for the falls by bus on March 7, tour the falls all day March 8, and return to Bs As on March 9.
I heard there are different bus lines, different services available. Also one of us is over 65 years of age and somewhat disabled (eligible for a disabled parking permit) someone mentioned that some travel discounts are available to senior or disabled people, actually free travel on buses and metro in BsAs.
I'd appreciate information about bus schedules, bus lines, where to get tickets, how long in advance, ticket prices, etc.

Also, are visas necessary to enter Argentina for citizens of the European Union? Specifically Hungarians?

Thank you

Gabor

There is a website with a lot of information about bus travels in Argentina:
www.plataforma10.com

Be aware the bus ride will take about 18 hours !!


happy travels

According to the Argentinian embassy in UK, Hungarian citizens don't need a visa to enter Argentina but you might wanna check it out at the embassy in Budapest.

Check out if you need a visa to enter the Brazilian side of the falls.

Thanks folks,

I guess I should post my questions on the Buenos Aires forum too to get information about the local bus/metro as well.
