Other possibility : From the city center of Buenos Aires, take the bus 60 and go out at the terminus in Escobar. It takes around 3 hours but it costs only 5 pesos ! In Escobar, you should go to HIPERMERCADO JUMBO, on the street called Ramal Escobar. Then you will see the shild with the direction of Campana and Zarate. You can start hitchiking.

Extra information for bus 60. There are 12 variants of the 60. Make sure it says Escobar on the LOWER display panel, and confirm with driver. It also costs about $12 with cash payment. My driver accepted $7 with a persuasive smile. Coins only. Express 60 leaves from plaza Italia, but costs 27$. Ride on normal took 2 hours, but note; it passes the peaje where Ruta 9 peels off (see map) and an excellent YPF station on the highway about 1.5 hours in, both good places. I stayed till Escobar, went to the on ramp and got a ride to Zarate in 10 mins. Demonstrating you are a traveller is a VERY good idea to get out of BA, even if it means hamming it up with a flag or thai fishing pants. Ok, don't go that far. All in, 3 hours to get out of the city, and made it to Montevideo in a long day. Lukeyboy95
