If the water route isn’t for you, you can also take a bus ride from Buenos Aires to Colonia or Montevideo in just over two hours. The faster ferries are equipped with free Wi-Fi Internet. During peak travel times, such as weekends and during the Christmas, New Year’s, and Carnival holidays, make sure to book your ferry ride well in advance.
