Is it safe for a single woman to travel in Argentina?
🌍 Part of the My Guide Network
Usually, women traveling alone in big cities such as Buenos Aires tend not to have many problems. The occasional catcall or stare is about as much as you will get in these more progressive areas as they are used to seeing tourists and have much more modern attitudes towards women.
Women might attract more attention to rural villages that aren’t used to seeing foreigners. Women should take care when on their own late at night and always take a taxi rather than walk around when it is dark. Machismo attitudes are still very much alive here and once the alcohol starts flowing catcalls can turn in to grabbing.
