The historic city of Colonia del Sacramento, founded in 1680, evokes images of ancient Lisbon for its Portuguese-style architecture and winding streets. Colonia is located in the southwestern part of Uruguay, on the Río de la Plata, and in 1995 UNESCO declared it a World Heritage Site. You can visit Colonia easily by ferry from Buenos Aires in just a day trip, and this is one of the reasons that make its beaches a popular destination of great tourist attraction for Argentines. Among its main monuments are the Church Matrix, which is the oldest in the country, the Municipal Museum and a port dating from the seventeenth century that merges harmoniously with the river.

Great day trip, worth the price

We had a wonderful on this day trip to Colonia. We really wanted to cross the river and visit Uruguay but were worried about figuring out all of the parts on our own and this tour was the perfect option for us. It is pretty expensive - would be a lot less if you did the trip on your own - but having everything figured out and booked for us and a tour guide to walk us through it all was worth it. The ferry ride across the river was very comfortable and our tour guide was waiting for us. She was lovely and it was fun spending the morning walking around this beautiful old town with her. We learned so much about the history of this town that we never would have learned by ourselves. We had plenty of time to explore and eat on our own before we met up with her again to return to the ferry. Definitely worth the day trip to escape the busy city of Buenos Aires and enjoy some peace and tranquility in the gorgeous old city of Colonia.

We had a wonderful day in Colonia! Transfers were seamless, the boat was quick. Our tour of the beautiful town was one of the best of our vacation - informative about Uruguayan history, and our guide was so personable. We would love to return!
