Prices and availability for Buenos Aires come through our partner networks, EconomyBookings and Discover Cars. Your booking completes on the partner's secure checkout.
Buenos Aires is a city you walk, take the Subte and hail taxis in, and traffic on the wide avenues is fast and assertive, so a car is not for exploring Palermo or San Telmo. It earns its place for the region: the Tigre delta, the estancias and pampas towns, the riverside road out to San Antonio de Areco, or a longer run to the Atlantic coast. Our partner network compares local and international rental companies with live prices for Ezeiza, Aeroparque and city pick-ups.

Renting a car in Buenos Aires: common questions
Should I pick up at the airport or in the city?
If you are spending a few days in the city first, pick the car up when you leave rather than paying to park it downtown. Ezeiza is on the motorway side that leads south and west; Aeroparque sits on the riverside near Palermo and suits trips north towards Tigre and Rosario. Choose the matching pick-up point when you search.
What is driving and parking in Buenos Aires actually like?
Lane discipline is loose, buses have priority in their own lanes, and the 9 de Julio avenue is best crossed rather than driven. Street parking in the centre is scarce and towing is real, so use a paid garage (estacionamiento) or keep the car for the day you head out of town.
What licence do I need?
A full driving licence held for at least a year is the usual requirement, and each company sets its own minimum age and young-driver conditions. If your licence is not in the Latin alphabet, bring an International Driving Permit alongside it. The exact conditions for every car are shown before you book.
Is there a deposit, and what about insurance?
Deposit and insurance terms differ between companies in Buenos Aires, so they are shown per car before you book. You will see what is included, what the excess is, and whether a deposit is held on your card at the desk.
Where does the booking actually happen?
