Editor review:
This Buenos Aires to Uruguay Ferry is a worthwhile experience for anyone wishing to tick an extra box on their South American holiday. Aside from the thrill of riding a slow and easy ferry, there’s also the option to take your car along if you really want to (at extra cost). But the best way to take the Buenos Aires ferry to Uruguay is as part of a guided day tour, as it saves you the hassle of arranging the tickets (which come included).

Between Chile and Argentina sits a narrow strait called the Beagle Channel. It is only 3.1 miles wide and around 149 miles long, and a popular day trip via catamaran. Among the features of the trip is the opportunity to see some of the southern ocean wildlife. This type of tour should be top of your list when looking for amazingly unique Argentina day trip experiences.

Editor Review:
It’s certainly hard to find a comparable tour anywhere else in the world, mainly because of this unique geographical setting. When near the Beagle Channel in Argentina or Chile, it’s definitely worth considering taking the day to see the southernmost parts of our planet that most ordinary people don’t get to see.
