Changing Pesos back to US Dollars
Good day all,
I will be leaving Buenos Aires in a few weeks, and I expect to have about $400pesos left in my pocket on the last day. I'm interested in general tips about changing pesos back to US dollars.
1) Where are my options to go to exchange my leftover pesos back to dollars? At the airport exchange counter, etc.
2) $400p is basically $100US, right? So, will I receive that $100US back, or a lower / higher amount?
3) Is it smarter to exchange my pesos for dollars in Argentina, or should I wait until I am back in the states to exchange it? Or does it not make a difference?
4) Any topic-related anecdotes (pos or neg) that you think might be helpful, would be great, too.
Thank you.
Just do it at the airport
At the airport Ezieza apart from money changers there is Banco de la nacion (as you arrived in buenos aires and left customs it was on your right hand side back to the wall) where they will change it back at the official rate and since we are not talking that much money the diff is minimal. Also don't forget to save pesos for airport exit tax.
