Visa trip to Colonia from Tigre

[CarlyB]

Has anyone done this? I see there's a company called Delta, but the information looks old. Any info about anyone's knowledge and/or experience doing this is appreciated. I am wondering why we only seem to hear about buquebus..

Gracias,
Carly

I saw the website, which has at the bottom a logo about San Fernando, year 2005, so I believe it is outdated. Did you try to call them over the phone?

I mean, it's about time I make another run for the border.

Why?

Yes, I've been to this site. The information is rather sketchy. so I was hoping to hear from others who have traveled to Uruguay this way.

I've done it before but with http://cacciolaviajes.com/. It was fine, no problems.

1) How much?
2) How long was the boat ride?
3) How long was the turn around?

Thanks

In Pesos, the "Victoria" boat goes on Mondays and Fridays. I never did this way, I thinkit is 3 hours from Tigre to Carmelo. Carmelo is in Uruguay, so for visa runs is ok. And it is interesting because you travel around the islands.
