Tarifas de Táxi em Buenos Aires (2026)
All licensed Buenos Aires taxis (Radio Taxis) use a taximeter. The flag fall rate and per-km rate are set by the Buenos Aires city government (GCBA) and updated periodically — sometimes multiple times per year due to inflation. The meter automatically applies the correct tariff. A night surcharge of 20% applies between 10 pm and 6 am. Due to inflation, the peso figures in this guide may be outdated by the time you arrive — use Cabify or InDriver for a real-time fare estimate in ARS.

Airport Fares — Ezeiza (EZE) and Aeroparque (AEP)
Leve dólares americanos ou euros — muitos serviços de táxi no aeroporto precificam em USD para se proteger da inflação, e você conseguirá um negócio melhor pagando em moeda estrangeira pela taxa do mercado paralelo. Confirme antes da viagem se o USD é aceito.
Cabify é o aplicativo de transporte dominante em Buenos Aires — mais popular do que Uber por aqui. Oferece preço fixo antecipado e pagamento pelo aplicativo. O InDriver permite que você proponha uma tarifa e os motoristas façam lances, o que pode gerar economia de 15–25% em períodos de baixa demanda. Ambos os aplicativos são confiáveis e os motoristas aparecem bem no mapa.
Radio Taxis — Pegando na Rua
Os Radio Taxis licenciados (carroceria amarela, teto preto) são seguros para pegar na rua em Buenos Aires — esta é uma das cidades latino-americanas onde pegar táxi na rua é geralmente tranquilo. Procure a placa iluminada "Radio Taxi" no teto e um cartão de identificação do motorista visível no interior. Sempre confirme se o taxímetro começa na bandeirada correta antes de partir.
Radio Taxis — Street Hailing in Buenos Aires
Unlike Mexico City or parts of Brazil, street hailing in Buenos Aires is generally safe. Licensed Radio Taxis are yellow with a black roof and display an illuminated "Radio Taxi" sign. The driver must show a visible ID card inside. Always confirm the meter is running at the correct flag fall before the car moves. Ask "¿Está corriendo el taxímetro?" ("Is the meter running?") if in doubt. Reputable radio taxi companies include Radio Taxi Premium (011-5238-9000) and Radio Taxi Plus (011-4931-1200).
Navigating Buenos Aires — Transport Tips
Buenos Aires has an excellent Subte (metro) network with 6 lines covering the main tourist areas including San Telmo, Microcentro, Palermo, Recoleta, and Belgrano. Subte fares are charged via SUBE card (rechargeable, available at kioscos/newsstands) at a very low fixed fare — typically under $200 ARS per journey. For late-night travel after the Subte closes (around 11 pm), taxis and Cabify are the practical options.
Perguntas Frequentes
How much is a taxi from Ezeiza Airport (EZE) to Buenos Aires city centre?
Approximately USD 35–55 or the equivalent in ARS via the official Manuel Tienda León remis booth inside arrivals. The journey takes 40–70 minutes depending on traffic. Due to Argentina's inflation, ARS figures change frequently — check with the booth on arrival.
Is it safe to hail a taxi on the street in Buenos Aires?
Yes — Buenos Aires Radio Taxis (yellow with black roof) are generally safe to hail. Look for the illuminated Radio Taxi sign and a visible driver ID inside. Confirm the meter starts correctly. Cabify and InDriver are alternatives if you prefer app-based tracking.
Is Uber available in Buenos Aires?
Uber operates in Buenos Aires but in a legal grey area due to taxi union opposition. Drivers may ask you to sit in the front and act as a friend. Cabify is legally clearer, more comfortable, and equally well-priced. InDriver is a good budget alternative.
Why are Buenos Aires taxi fares so hard to quote accurately?
Argentina's inflation means the GCBA updates taxi tariffs multiple times per year. ARS figures quoted anywhere online can be outdated within weeks. Use Cabify for a real-time ARS fare estimate, or convert recent metered rates to USD at the current exchange rate for a stable reference.
Should I pay for Buenos Aires taxis in USD?
Many airport transfer services accept USD and price in dollars to hedge against peso inflation. In the city, Radio Taxi meters run in ARS. You can tip in USD at the unofficial exchange rate if the driver agrees, but the meter fare itself is in ARS.
Should I tip taxi drivers in Buenos Aires?
Rounding up to the nearest $500–1,000 ARS is customary and appreciated. A 5–10% tip is generous but not expected. For Cabify, an in-app tip can be added. Cash tips in USD are always welcomed by drivers.
