Description
Embark on a delightful day trip to Colonia del Sacramento, the first site in Uruguay recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Your adventure begins with a round-trip ferry ticket from Buenos Aires to this charming city. Choose from various options, including a guided walking tour or a visit to a local winery. Founded in 1680 by the Portuguese explorer Manuel Lobo, Colonia has a rich history marked by shifts between Portuguese and Spanish rule until its Declaration of Independence in 1825. Discover how these influences have created a unique architectural tapestry where Spanish and Portuguese styles harmoniously coexist. Stroll along the cobblestone streets, taking in breathtaking views of the Río de la Plata. Experience the allure of colorful houses, traditional lanterns, and picturesque sunsets at El Portón de Campo, as well as the famous Street of Sighs and the iconic lighthouse. If you opt for the walking tour, your knowledgeable guide will meet you at the ferry station, ready to share captivating stories about this remarkable town.
