Arrival
Rosario's airport lies around 10km northwest of the city centre, along RN-9 ( 
0341/451-3220). There is no bus service to the centre from the airport – the half-hour taxi ride will cost around $20. Note that it is often quicker to reach Rosario by bus from Buenos Aires than to come by air.
Long-distance buses arrive at Rosario's clean and user-friendly Terminal de Omnibus Mariano Moreno, twenty blocks west of the city centre, at Santa Fe and Cafferata ( 0341/437-3030). An information kiosk there (erratic hours) can provide you with a list of hotels and a map. At the terminal you can buy a magnetic card (tarjeta magnética) used instead of cash on the city's local buses – walk one block north along Cafferata to catch buses #116 or #107 to the centre from the corner with San Lorenzo. Plenty of taxis pull up outside the front entrance, however, and will set you back only $5 to the city centre.
