Headed to Uruguay
Monday, March 23rd, 2009
The way most of consider going to Uruguay is by using the Buquebus. The ferries that run from Buenos Aires to Colonia and Montevideo each day – fully equipped with bus transfer as well. A new contender has arrived and by charging only AR$18 as opposed to AR$150 for a one way ticket, people are likely to turn heads.
Check out Colonia Express. If you book far enough ahead of time you can get some of the cheapest ferry rates. Which is nothing to scoff at, when during high season you might pay as much as AR$400 for a ticket to Montevideo or Punta del Este. 20 days in advance qualifies you for the lower price. So check it out!
