    • I traveled to B.A. on my own for 10 days and had no problem. Do your research before you go...things like taking radio cabs. I hailed cabs on the street all the time...just make sure they say RADIO TAXI on the back door. The license is prominently posted on the inside of the cab and there is always a meter. Look arouind before you go into an ATM area to withdraw cash...it's not brain surgery. It's all the same things you would do in any large city. Yes I saw a protest a few blocks away and just walked around it. The streets are bustling with people at almost all hours, just stay on the well lit busy streets, especially if you are by yourself.

    Warnings Or Dangers: Taxi scam in La Boca

    • When you are ready to get a cab and leave La Boca, walk away from the central area a block or two...

    A man asked me if I wanted a taxi and pointed to a radio taxi so I said yes, then he had his hand out and demanded to be paid! I think I gave him a peso just to get out of there! It wasn't dangerous, just a rip off scam.

     Nice page. I was in BA around the same time. Too bad you missed the VT meeting on 2/25. That's great you got to see a concert in the Colon Theater. They were all sold out when I went. Took the tour though. Will have to see on my next trip. :)
