Question 1

for feb trip, what's the typical transfer time from cordoba airport to the lodge vs from buenos aires, trying to figure out which arrival city is less travel time overall for the lodge

Accepted Answer

That's a great question for planning your trip to AWS Lodge!

Our lodge is conveniently located just **2 hours 30 minutes from Buenos Aires (EZE) international airport**. This means you **do not need any domestic flights**, and many of our guests are able to land, transfer to the lodge, and enjoy their first hunt on the very same afternoon they arrive.

Traveling from Cordoba would involve a much longer transfer time, likely requiring an additional domestic flight or a significantly extended drive, making Buenos Aires (EZE) the clear choice for convenience and efficiency to reach our lodge.

Regarding transfers from EZE, round-trip airport transfers directly to the lodge are typically estimated around quoted directly by our human team based on current market rates, but this is subject to market variations. Our human team will confirm the exact transportation cost for your specific dates.

Question 10

what's the difference in travel time from cordoba airport vs buenos aires airport to the lodge

Accepted Answer

Our AWS Lodge is strategically located just **2 hours 30 minutes from Buenos Aires (EZE) International Airport**. This is a significant advantage, as it means you can land at EZE and be in the field hunting doves the very same afternoon, without the need for any additional domestic flights.

Flying into Cordoba would actually make your travel much longer and more complicated. Our lodge is situated in the Buenos Aires province, so arriving in Cordoba would require either a lengthy ground transfer or an additional domestic flight back to Buenos Aires, and then the 2-hour transfer to the lodge. Our entire operation is designed around seamless transfers from EZE to maximize your hunting time and ensure a smooth arrival.
