mini bus option?

Could someone post a phone number of a reliable service, and approximately how much it costs compared to a taxi just picked up at the airport?

Thanks

If the wait times between the different groups is not too long, you may consider speaking to one of the car service companies about a mini-bus, as this may allow you to enjoy savings over the standard car service. Bear in mind that the average car in Buenos Aires is european size, not the large US style cars that can accomodate at least 3 in the back plus a good amount of luggage. If the students are carrying a decent amount of luggage each, getting more than 3 in one car will be a challenge. I know that Manuel Tienda leon does offer mini-buses and may be able to offer you a good group rate. My guess is that the other car companies there should also be able to offer you something similar.
