Estimate a meter-based taxi fare reference from Ministro Pistarini International Airport (EZE) to Buenos Aires City Centre using road-route distance, your selected Buenos Aires travel time and any additional stopped waiting time you enter. This independent informational tool does not book taxis, accept payments or guarantee the final fare.
The city-centre destination is represented by the Obelisco area near Avenida 9 de Julio, Microcentro and San Nicolás. Your actual road distance and fare will depend on the exact hotel, street or property destination.
The Ezeiza Airport to Buenos Aires City Centre Taxi Fare shown above is a meter-based planning estimate for the route from Ministro Pistarini International Airport (EZE) to the Obelisco area. Select your travel date and time, add any known stopped waiting minutes, and choose Get Fare Estimate to see the road distance, expected duration, selected tariff and fare breakdown in Argentine pesos.
The Obelisco represents central Buenos Aires for this calculator. Hotels and addresses in Microcentro, San Nicolás and nearby parts of the city centre will not all have the same road distance. Your exact destination can therefore produce a different fare.
An official airport taxi counter or digital system may issue a pre-established fare for your address. If you receive an official fare ticket before departure, use the amount printed on that ticket. It is different from the meter-based reference provided by this independent calculator.
This EZE Airport to Buenos Aires taxi calculator is intended for fare planning only. It does not request a vehicle or provide a booking.
Check that the pickup is Ezeiza International Airport and the destination is Buenos Aires City Centre (Obelisco).
Select the date and time when the taxi journey is expected to begin in Buenos Aires.
Leave additional stopped waiting time at 0 unless you want to include known vehicle-stopped minutes.
Select Get Fare Estimate.
Review the road distance, estimated duration, day or night tariff, fare range and route map.
Do not enter the full journey duration as waiting time. The waiting field is only for extra minutes when the vehicle is expected to remain stopped. The route duration is displayed separately.
The calculator applies published City of Buenos Aires meter values to the estimated Ezeiza-to-Obelisco road distance. It uses three main components:
Bajada de bandera: The starting meter amount.
Distance fichas: One fare unit for each 200 metres of the calculated road route.
Stopped waiting fichas: One fare unit for each additional stopped minute entered by the user.
The basic meter-reference method is:
Estimated meter amount = starting fare + distance fichas + entered stopped waiting fichas
The calculator then displays an estimated range around this amount. The range allows for normal route variation, but it is not an official airport quote. When the live route service is unavailable, the calculator clearly shows a wider fallback range.
The travel time you select determines whether the calculator uses the CABA day or night meter values.
The City of Buenos Aires publishes the daytime values and states that the night tariff is 20% higher. Decree 278/2024 gives the rounded night meter values of ARS 2,300 for the starting fare and ARS 230 for each ficha.
These CABA values are used as a transparent meter-based reference. A taxi journey beginning at Ezeiza Airport is an interjurisdictional airport trip, so an official pre-established airport tariff can use a different calculation method.
| Fare component | Day tariff | Night tariff |
|---|---|---|
| Applicable hours | 6:00 a.m. to 9:59 p.m. | 10:00 p.m. to 5:59 a.m. |
| Starting fare | ARS 1,920 | ARS 2,300 |
| Each 200 metres | ARS 192 | ARS 230 |
| Each stopped waiting minute | ARS 192 | ARS 230 |
Ezeiza Airport is in Buenos Aires Province, while the Obelisco is inside the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires. The journey therefore crosses jurisdictions.
National Resolution 12/2019 established a fare method for taxi journeys that begin at national airports and travel within the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Region. Resolution 286/2019 later replaced its annex. The updated method uses the starting fare, route distance, the applicable day or night value, a congestion factor and chargeable additional luggage. Tolls may also be added when they apply to the route.
This page does not reproduce the airport’s official pre-established tariff because the calculator does not apply the official congestion-factor table, tolls or chargeable extra luggage. It gives you a clear meter-based comparison for the representative Ezeiza-to-Obelisco route.
The amount paid may differ from the result above because of:
Your exact hotel, street or property address
The road route used for the journey
The day and time when the trip begins
Congestion and stopped time
Tolls on the selected route
Chargeable additional luggage
A valid pre-established airport fare
Later changes to official taxi rates
Check the destination and amount on any official airport fare ticket before leaving the pickup point. A fare for the Obelisco area should not be treated as the exact price for every address in central Buenos Aires.
The Buenos Aires Airport taxi fare can therefore change even when two passengers begin at EZE at a similar time but travel to different city addresses.
The attached calculator lets you add stopped waiting minutes. Under the published CABA meter structure, one ficha is charged for each minute the vehicle remains stopped. This is separate from the distance charge.
Traffic conditions are not fully predictable before travel. The route duration displayed on the map is a road-routing estimate. It is not automatically converted into waiting charges. Only the stopped minutes entered in the calculator are added to its meter-based result.
The official pre-established airport tariff can account for congestion through its own factor. That is one reason the official fare ticket may differ from the estimate shown on this page.
Tolls are not automatically included in the calculator result. The official airport fare method allows applicable toll costs to be added.
Published rules allow hand luggage and one suitcase or package up to 0.90 × 0.40 × 0.30 metres without an extra luggage charge. Each additional chargeable item is valued at five fichas. The calculator does not ask for luggage, so this possible amount is not included.
Confirm that the fare ticket shows your correct city address.
Check whether the amount is a pre-established airport fare.
Keep the ticket or fare information available during the journey.
Check whether tolls or extra luggage are included.

Use the calculator above to see the current meter-based range for the representative Ezeiza Airport to Obelisco route. The final price depends on your exact address, travel time, congestion, tolls, luggage and any official pre-established airport fare.
An authorised airport counter or digital system may issue a pre-established fare for the exact destination. Use that amount when a valid official fare ticket is issued. The calculator above is a separate meter-based reference.
The calculator uses the night values when the selected trip begins from 10:00 p.m. to 5:59 a.m. It uses the day values from 6:00 a.m. to 9:59 p.m. An official airport fare ticket may apply the corresponding airport tariff method.
The destination is the Obelisco area near Avenida 9 de Julio, Microcentro and San Nicolás. A hotel or property elsewhere in central Buenos Aires may have a different route distance.
No. The calculator does not automatically add tolls. Applicable tolls may be included in or added to an official airport fare, depending on the route and fare method.
It includes only the additional stopped waiting minutes entered by the user. The displayed route duration is not automatically charged as waiting time. An official pre-established fare may account for congestion separately.
Hand luggage and one suitcase or package within the published size limit are carried without an extra luggage charge. Extra chargeable items may add five fichas each. This calculator does not add luggage charges.
The calculator uses CABA meter values, road distance and entered stopped waiting time. The official airport method can also use a congestion factor, tolls and additional luggage. The exact destination and tariff updates can also change the amount.
