The value of your currency versus the Argentine Peso (within a cent or two) has to be the best kept value for money secret on the global travel radarscope.

1 SA Rand = 0.50 ARS Pesos
1 NZ Dollar = 2.10 ARS Pesos
1 AUS dollar = 2.25 ARS Pesos
1 CAD Dollar = 2.40 ARS Pesos
1 USD = 3.00 ARS Pesos
1 EURO = 4.00 ARS Pesos
1 UK Pound = 5.50 ARS Pesos

  • A one litre bottle of beer costs ARS2.50.
  • A 750ml bottle of glorious Malbec red wine costs no more than ARS15 (USD$5)
  • A 6km taxi ride costs ARS 8 including the tip(USD$2.50)
  • A pair of exceptional hand-stitched men’s leather shoes costs no more than USD$75
  • Women’s fashion shoes run from USD20 upwards, but to pay USD$50 will deliver exquisite quality.
  • Hand-tailored leather jackets, custom designed leather trousers, vests, full length kid-glove leather coats bags, all at a fraction of the price you’d pay at home.
  • Tipping is not expected, but is accepted as long as the service receiver believes they have been given ´good service´. What’s more, service here is a profession and is delivered with style
  • As well, you are in for a wonderful surprise as dining here not only is as good as you’d find anywhere, but you’ll pay a fraction of the cost of the same meal as you would in New Zealand, Australia, Canada, the USA, let alone Europe or the UK.
  • For a slap-up top of the line three course quality dinner for four people, inclusive of three bottles of excellent wine, bottled waters, tea & coffee be prepared to outlay the princely sum of USD$21 per person – USD23 with a tip included.
    In many nations you can’t buy a half-decent bottle of wine for that price, let alone dinner, wines & the works.
