With the arrival of long weekends and the tourist flow towards the Atlantic Coast, many drivers wonder how much money they should allocate for tolls to travel by car to destinations such as Mar del Plata, Villa Gesell, Pinamar, and other localities in the Partido de La Costa. According to updated values confirmed by the Argentine News Agency, traveling the main routes to these destinations implies a significant expense in toll booths, especially on the most transit corridors. Tolls on Route 2: access to Mar del Plata. For those traveling to Mar del Plata via Route 2, the main tolls are: Samborombón: $7,000. Maipú: $7,000. In total, for this stretch alone, $14,000 must be paid per vehicle for a one-way trip. Tolls on Route 11 and connections to the Coast. For those continuing to destinations like Villa Gesell, Pinamar, or the Partido de La Costa, other tolls are added: La Huella Toll (Route 11): $7,000. Route 74 (General Madariaga): $3,000. Route 11 (Mar Chiquita): $3,300. How much does the trip cost in total. Depending on the final destination, the total cost of tolls can exceed $20,000 for a one-way trip, especially for those who combine Route 2 with access via Route 11 or Route 74. This scenario forces travelers to consider the expense of tolls within the general budget of the trip, along with fuel and other associated costs. Recommendations for drivers. In light of these values, it is recommended to: verify updated toll rates before hitting the road; consider using automatic payment systems to speed up passage; plan the total cost of the trip, including tolls for both ways. This way, those who choose to travel by car to the Atlantic Coast can avoid surprises and better organize their expenses during the peak season.
