Getting to Nordelta or Downtown
Nordelta is reached via the Panamericana highway, Tigre branch. Downtown is close to Retiro station and the main avenues. If you arrive by plane, we arrange delivery at Ezeiza or Aeroparque on WhatsApp.
Which car to choose
For city driving, a compact car or sedan is easy to park. For the coast or the countryside with luggage, an SUV or a sedan with a large trunk offers more space. The quote shows the available categories.
Parking in the city
In Downtown, use licensed parking lots. Do not leave the car in prohibited areas or on streets closed for events. If the hotel has a garage, confirm the height and hours before booking.
Tolls
Some highways have tolls. We do not publish rates because they change. Keep the agreed fuel level and ask about the best route before leaving.
What to check at pickup
Check the car with the team: fuel, tires, documents and general condition. If something does not match the booking, tell us at pickup. If you travel with children, ask for the child seat when booking.
Return
The car must be returned clean and with the same fuel level. If fuel or cleaning is missing, the current rate applies. There is a one-hour grace period. After that, half a day is charged and from four hours, a full day is charged.
Airport delivery
If you arrive at Ezeiza or Aeroparque, delivery is arranged on WhatsApp subject to availability. Send the flight number and time so we can organize the meeting point.
