    • Dear Passenger, If you have a confirmed reservation and wish to change the duration of your ticket, we request that you first cancel the current reservation and then generate a new one. This is necessary because the QR code is automatically issued with each new reservation and if you modify your existing one, you will not receive the updated QR.
    • If you have a confirmed reservation and wish to add more passengers, we kindly ask that you make a new reservation for the additional people instead of modifying the existing one. This is necessary because the QR code is automatically generated with each reservation. If the original reservation is modified, the QR code will not update to reflect the new number of passengers.
    • Important notice: Due to public works and associated road closures, bus stops 16 (Costanera Norte), 17 (Monumento Cristóbal Colón), and 18 (Parque de la Memoria) are suspended indefinitely. These stops will resume service once traffic returns to normal in the area.
    • To use and validate your ticket, you must download the 'Buenos Aires City Bus' app to your mobile device, available on Google Play and the App Store. Once downloaded, enter your reservation number to obtain the corresponding QR codes (one per person). These QR codes serve as your access tickets and must be presented when boarding the bus.
    • We recommend downloading the app in advance and connecting to a Wi-Fi network to pre-download the audio guide and map. This way, you can use its main features during your tour of the city, even without an internet connection.
    • From the app, you can also check the real-time location of the buses, access information on all stops, and listen to the audio guide, available directly in the app. Remember to bring your own headphones, as the audio guide will play from your mobile device through the app.

    Disappointing experience 😩😩

    On September 28th, I showed up to receive the services which were purchased a couple of weeks in advance. We validated them at stop number three (3), then during the tour we got off at stop number 20. When trying to board the bus again, they indicated to us that the tickets had been canceled since the 27th (the day I was on a flight from Calafate to Buenos Aires). The vouchers that I have indicate that my tickets are valid for 48hrs. Since I could not use the service, I had to resort to using Uber to get to my hotel, incurring an expense that was not planned. While I was waiting for the Uber, a bus stopped where the same person who validated our tickets in the morning was. I explained the situation to him and he could not explain to me the reason for the cancellation. In short, I was only able to use the service for a single stop and the second day was lost. Red bus not recommended. It would be better to deal with the yellow bus.

    Explorer: Hop-On Hop-Off Tourist Bus 48 hours + Navigation: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bariloche.

    How much does Explorer: Hop-On Hop-Off Tourist Bus 48 hours + Navigation cost?

    +

    Prices start at $60 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bariloche usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Explorer: Hop-On Hop-Off Tourist Bus 48 hours + Navigation take?

    +

    Plan for about 24 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bariloche is not rushed.

    Is Explorer: Hop-On Hop-Off Tourist Bus 48 hours + Navigation worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 54 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bariloche, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Explorer: Hop-On Hop-Off Tourist Bus 48 hours + Navigation?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Explorer: Hop-On Hop-Off Tourist Bus 48 hours + Navigation suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 24-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Explorer: Hop-On Hop-Off Tourist Bus 48 hours + Navigation?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bariloche can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bariloche and add a light layer if any part of the 24-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Explorer: Hop-On Hop-Off Tourist Bus 48 hours + Navigation start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bariloche within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Bariloche?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Bariloche experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Trekking day in the mountains close to Bariloche, Fly Fishing Bariloche, Fly Fishing Trips in Bariloche. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Bariloche?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Bariloche?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
