2 – HOW TO GET TO COLONIA FROM BUENOS AIRES (ARGENTINA)<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

To get to Colonia, Uruguay, some travelers prefer to fly to Buenos Aires airport and then take a ferry to cross the river to Colonia.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

First part-From Ezeiza International Airport (Buenos Aires) to the Buquebus ferry station (Buenos Aires, Puerto Madero)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Distance: 40 km (25 miles)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Recommended transport from the Ezeiza Airport:<\/p>\n

Transfer Express <\/strong>https:\/\/remistransfer.com.ar\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Estimated Travel time: 50-60 minutes depending on the time of day.
\nEstimated standard rate (July 2023): ARS 14,700 (USD 30 approx.)
\nThe ticket must be prebooked at least two days in advance. A credit card should be used to pay the ticket and confirm the reservation.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Second part-From Buenos Aires, Puerto Madero, to Colonia del Sacramento (Uruguay)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ferry crossing<\/strong><\/p>\n

Argentina and Uruguay share the R\u00edo de la Plata River. Traveling from Buenos Aires<\/a> to Colonia only takes about an hour by ferry. Ferries run daily with morning, afternoon, and evening departures.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Buquebus is the most popular option. Their ferry terminal is located in Puerto Madero, an upscale area in downtown Buenos Aires. Make sure to book a \u201cfast\u201d ferry. Other ferry rides are much longer, up to three hours long.
\nYou can go directly to Buquebus\u2019 website<\/a> to book your ticket.<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.buquebus.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are two other ferry options to Colonia:<\/p>\n

The Seacat<\/a> is a slightly more economical option and offers a number of departures. It leaves from the same port as Buquebus.

The Colonia Express<\/a> has fewer departures. Its terminal is located nearby on the opposite end of Puerto Madero.

 <\/p>\n

Make sure to have your passport ready since they\u2019ll ask for passport information when you make your reservation. We recommend booking the ticket in advance. Be careful about where you get in line to check-in for your ferry. The screen must state the ferry that you\u2019re taking.
\nYou may want to prepare with some motion sickness medicine, if it\u2019s a breezy day and you get seasick easily.
\nOnce you arrive at the Buquebus station in Colonia, you can take a taxi to get to the Sheraton Hotel (venue hotel). Distance: 6,5 km (4 miles). Estimated trip time: 15 minutes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
