While a beautiful destination in it’s own right, Montevideo is a great choice for long-stayers in Argentina looking to do a visa run.
Montevideo is about 1.5 hours from Buenos Aires on the buquebus. Which is a high speed ferry that runs back and forwards between Buenos Aires and Montevideo and Colonia del Sacramento.
You should plan to visit both Montevideo and Colonia del Sacramento on any holiday to Buenos Aires.
