Getting to Uruguay from BUENOS AIRES |
||||
| You may either fly or take a ferry from Buenos Aires to Uruguay. The choice may vary depending on the season: | ||||
Generally if you fly you will do so from Buenos Aires' city airport "Aeroparque", but there are also flights from the International Airport "Ezeiza", sometimes connecting directly following flights from abroad. You can find a flight to Montevideo (230 km to La Pedrera), or to Punta del Este (120 km to La Pedrera). |
||||
| If you go by ferry, and your time is relatively short then you ought to choose to ferry to Montevideo, 3 hours port to port, if you have more time in Uruguay and plan to visit other areas you could also ferry to Colonia, 1 hour, from there it is about 6.5 hours to La Pedrera through Montevideo. | ||||
| Getting around in URUGUAY | ||||
| Renting a car | ||||
You may reserve and pick up a car at either airport (Montevideo or Punta del Este), there are a number to choose from, AVIS, HERTZ, DOLLAR, etc. Also some local ones, many of the car agencies will pick you up at the ferry terminal in Montevideo. You should know that you don't need a car in La Pedrera, if you want to visit Cabo Polonio or nearby attractions you can do so by taxi, in town everything, both beaches, restaurants, etc. are within walking distance. No car is a nice relaxing option! |

| Alternatively, if you fly to Montevideo you may take a bus directly to La Pedrera, it takes about 3.5 hours, the buses are comfortable, have WiFi, and leave you about 4 blocks from the hotel. For flexibility so that the flight arrival & bus departure times match better, you can also take a bus to La Paloma, then a taxi from there to La Pedrera (about 9 km).
