    One of Cologne's tourist attractions... I suggest a guided tour with a tour company as the city has an immense wealth of stories, there's no way to know everything on your own. I went with Master Turismo, the guide Ricardo speaks Portuguese, English and Spanish, super friendly and polite. He explained everything calmly in 3 languages; the van is comfortable and they stop to explain at each location.

    Best place to visit in colonia, Uruguay

  • 3/5 Audrey M. 5 years ago on Google
    The weather was quite damp, so I didn't experience it as much as i wanted to. I'd personally recommend spending only a day there if you like the city, and aren't a typical tranquility lover. Quite small, walked around a bit, but a day was way enough! I even requested to change my ticket to an earlier ferry, which they did! Very unique, a gorgeous little place for an escape...

  • 5/5 RISHAV M. 4 years ago on Google
    It was a great place for weekend visit

  • 5/5 Campe C. 4 years ago on Google
    A former Portuguese enclave in the Rio de la Plata with colonial architecture. Peaceful and beautiful, nice river beaches. Lovely sunset. Good food and hotels. Only 30 miles away from Buenos Aires by many ferries daily (you must book your ticket) and only 100 miles away from Montevideo, Uruguay's capital. A good base to rent a car and visit Uruguay's capital and, further east, the eastern coast like Punta del Este resort and many more small peaceful seaside town with nice beaches. Worth visiting if coming to Uruguay or Argentina. Colonia has a beautiful sport port of planning to navigate by your own from the opposite argentine coast. You may need charts and someone who knows how to avoid rocks and sand banks.

  • 5/5 An'e P. 5 years ago on Google
    Nice photo op by the waterfront, off-road parking nearby. Flat, level ground should make it accessible with stroller or wheelchairs also (as long as you don't get bogged down in the sand. I bet this is gorgeous in the evening with the lights.

    Definitely something to see when you visit Colonia de sacramento, Uruguay. It takes about 40-50 minutes by the beach from the port. Definitely recommend the walk.

    (Translated by Google) Not bad, at night it has lights that change color. However, it is not flashy either, it is not in an emblematic place nor does it have a striking view as for the photo. (Original) No está mal, de noche tiene luces que cambian de color. Sin embargo no es llamativo tampoco, no está en un lugar emblemático ni tiene una vista llamativa como para la foto.

  • 1/5 Lassla E. 5 years ago on Google
    The worst experience ever. It was horrible experience trying to get a trip, all companies from Buenos Aires were giving wrong information online and at the port where ferries depart crowded lines and lines for customs on the way to Uruguay and the way back. The place is historical but nothing spectacular just a colonial and the tiniest of all, only tourist trap shops only tourist trap restaurants they said they take card and the they scam you and say you need to go to the cashpoint cause the machine doesn't work... Happened to us in more than one place. The view of the river is pretty average and nothing you can't see in other places of Argentina or probably Uruguay without the hassle and multiple scams.

  • 4/5 Abhinav K. 5 years ago on Google
