Recommended vaccines include measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine, diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis vaccine, varicella (chickenpox) vaccine, hepatitis A, B, typhoid, rabies and yellow fever vaccine.

SAFETY
All cities that you will be traveling through on this tour are very safe. If you do find time to explore on your own in the city of Buenos Aires, below are some key precautions to take:
TRANSPORTATION

If you prefer to hail one from the street, call a radio taxi (black & yellow), all taxis work with meters. Avoid paying with large bills. The easy local transportation available in Buenos Aires is the underground which works in straight lines. A card is needed calling SUBE which you can purchase at most metro stations.
