Cruise stop FAQ

Where do I meet the driver?

At the exit of the Quinquela Martín cruise terminal (Av. Ramón S. Castillo y Av. de los Inmigrantes), holding a sign with your name. The price includes 60 minutes of waiting at the port, so a slow disembarkation is not a problem.

Is there time for a city tour on a port day?

Yes. Tell us when the ship docks and the all-aboard time and we plan the day to get you back to the terminal with margin. The 4-hour city tour fits most stops; with a full day in port, the 6 or 8-hour version.

Is this a shore excursion I can book independently of the cruise line?

Yes. It is a private shore excursion booked directly with us, not through the ship, which is why it costs a fraction of the ship's excursions for a group and runs only for your party. Because the ship does not wait for independent tours, we plan every day to be back at the terminal well before all-aboard.

How far is the terminal from the city?

It is in the port area of the Retiro neighbourhood, a few minutes from Puerto Madero, downtown and Recoleta. The ride itself is short; traffic is what makes the difference.

Is the price per person?

No. Transfers are per vehicle and per trip; city tours are per group. A family of three in a Kangoo or a group of six in a van pays one flat rate.

My cruise starts or ends in Buenos Aires. Do you do airport transfers?

Yes: from Ezeiza or Aeroparque to the terminal, and from the terminal to either airport, at the prices on this page. We track your flight and the driver waits at arrivals with a sign.

Does the MSC Seaview sail from Buenos Aires?

Yes. In the 2026-2027 season the MSC Seaview is based in Buenos Aires, with 13 seven-night sailings between 10 December 2026 and 4 March 2027 calling at Santos, Balneário Camboriú and Punta del Este. If you fly in to embark, we take you from Ezeiza or Aeroparque airport to the terminal (from USD 52 per vehicle) or from your hotel to the terminal (USD 30), and from the terminal back to the airport after the cruise.

How do I pay?

Book on WhatsApp and we send you a secure card payment link in US dollars once the booking is confirmed.

Can I cancel?

Free of charge up to 24 hours before. These prices are not available on 24, 25 and 31 December or 1 January: ask us for those dates.

Buenos Aires shore excursions: what you can do on a port day

Cruise ships dock at the Terminal de Cruceros Quinquela Martín in the port of Buenos Aires (Av. Ramón S. Castillo y Av. de los Inmigrantes), in the port area of Retiro, a few minutes from Puerto Madero, downtown and Recoleta. A private shore excursion booked independently of the cruise line lets you see the classic neighbourhoods with a private city tour with a guide (from USD 250 per group), explore at your own pace with a car and driver by the hour (from USD 25 per hour), or simply get a private transfer into the city and back (from USD 30 per trip). Your driver waits at the terminal exit with a sign and brings you back before all-aboard time. If your cruise starts or ends in Buenos Aires, as on the MSC Seaview sailings from December 2026 to March 2027, we also transfer between the terminal and Ezeiza or Aeroparque airports. Book on WhatsApp and pay by secure card link.
