I love Argentina! I lived there 9 years - Buenos Aires is a beautiful city, the food is fantastic, and the people are very nice! I remember we were able to stay on our tourist visas for 6 months, then we had to cross an international boundary, going to Montevideo, Urugay, and returning to Argentina, we were good for another 6 months. We took the Buquebus from Bs. As. to Montevideo - an overnight trip! It was an experience (a good one, actually) I'll never forget! Eventually, we got permanent residency in Argentina, and lived there 9 years! (My oldest son was born in Bs. As., downtown in the Hospital Aleman (German Hospital), June 29, 1986, the day Argentina beat Germany in the Word Cup! I will never forget that day!) We had 3 sons born in while living there. It's an adventure well worth the trip!
How did you get a permanent visa?
Why did you leave?
Omg. I was born in Hospital Aleman too in 1993.
Buenos aries sucks ass crowded ,polluted,dog shit every where on the street,50% of people here don't speak English ,Argentinian cuisine doesn't exist here ,all they like to eat is just hamburger or steak (ribeye,siroilin...etc etc ) I guess its famous here ...people here are to serious not friendly like we are in the USA ...this is my first time here and my last time!!
Gratsiela Borisova Just ask for a permanent residency once you are in as a tourist. Very easy. You just need your criminal record
I find it interesting that there was sea sickness experienced by the lady. When I took that ferry from B.A. to Colonia, I didn't realize the boat had left Argentina until I happened to look out a window. I found the ride to be very smooth.
Me too, but some people are super sensitive
Hope you had a great time, greetings from Argentina!
Thank you!
Can’t believe you’re in my country Argentina and I’m Europe. I’m a huge fan, I always expect to see you somewhere in the world when I travel , greetings from Barcelona.
Great video! In addition to Buquebus there’s another company called Colonia Express which also offers service between Bs As and Colonia. I used them to go to Colonia a month ago and returned with Buquebus the following day on a Saturday. It offered me more options with the available times. One thing is that the terminal for Colonia Express is on a different location of Puerto Madero on the side closest to La Boca neighborhood. I hope you had an awesome time in Bs As and Colonia (including having a chivito sandwhich in Colonia😊)
oh yes... had a few chivito sandwiches.... :)
I always take the slow one, it's like a mini cruise through the Rio de la Plata the ship has an open terrace with a bar, its quite beautiful if you like ships. It's cheaper too.
If Uruguay were an actual Argentine province and not independent, I don't really know if there would still be all those ferries between Buenos Aires and Colonia, considering that they might have built a bridge (maybe complete with trains as well as a road) over the Rio de la Plata between the two spots. Or at least with each end being near but not in those cities/towns.
Actually, theres a law that states that all provinces must be conected by land where possible. There's a couple exceptions to this due to geographic reasons, like the province of Tierra del Fuego, which is an island in the southest part of the country.
Mark, your timing is impeccable as I just began researching South America and the BA to MV ferry is one of those things I wondered about. Best ferries in my opinion - Istanbul, no matter how choppy the water is they are flat bottomed and it doesn't seem to make too much of a difference.
Next time try to come to Montevideo or Punta del este here in Uruguay :) hope you had a good time.
Love your transportation videos - planes, trains, ferries, chicken buses...you name it. 👍
I got back from Argentina 10 days ago. Hidden gem. Wanted to do Colonial but ran out of time.
Thanks for the video! I've been wanting to go to Buenos Aires and Uruguay but I didn't even know you could do this. And now when I go to Buenos Aires I could also go to Uruguay too. So thanks for the video; it really helped.
I took that very same ferry a few times to make it to Uruguay. And I totally remember getting seasick too
Cool video! I went to Colonia a few years ago and loved it. Cant wait to go back.
The rich get Richer because the poor thinks every opportunity is a scam. i took bitcoin investment as my part time job, investing with a legit platform and i 'm earning smoothly without any stress. i got paid of $98,500 after a week of investing, I really appreciate it and can't help but let others know about it because it is so suitable anyone can trade from anywhere and anytime Mr Nicholas is recommended on Instagram @nicholas__fxtrade. for more information. He is genius....
Awsome video! I liked the play by play format!
Colonia del Sacramento is a great 1 day experience but there's also a different way of enjoying it. I have two kids ( 2 and 8yo) so we took our car in the ferry and stood for a couple days, and drove our way around Uruguay while having our HQ on a Colonia's Hotel. It's amazing how different it is, from the madness of Buenos Aires as a propper metropolis to a calm, historical, almost country-side town as it is. Oh btw, it's highly recommended to book for Bussiness / first class every time, it really pays off...
Loved the vlog style of this video
Good tips thanks for posting....the seasick lady was cute. Peace.

I love Uruguay ❤️very nice and warm people ❤️best meat in the world ❤️
Nice beaches
Thanks for the video! In Chile now and hoped you had video on this country haha please do one in the future if you’re here :)
You should visit Salto in Uruguay, where there are hot springs, winter is the best time for that!
This was very informative I needed to know everything about the ferry for future reference thank you😇👍👌✌
If you even remember...when did you purchase tickets in relation to departure? Day before? Week before? A month before, etc...?
I wish I'll avail this opportunity in some day!
You must visit in Argentina the Iguazu falls ..are amazing!! 👍😉
The two hours waiting rule is because there's no way for the buquebus company to know how many people may take a single ferry in any given time...ALSO IT'S A GREAT CHANCE TO MAKE YOU SPEND SOME MONEY IN THE INNER CAFES AND KIOSKS IN THE WAITING ROOM :V
nice informative & vid quality presentation thanks
You shoud visit Buenos Aires in the spring! Why in winter?? Also, if you have the time and money, go to the South (Bariloche) or the very north (Salta). ¡Que te diviertas!
Aahhhh you are in my country. Love It!!! I am planning to travel Washington and your videos are the best.
Fingerprinting?
Can these ferries take cars? I'm looking at renting a car in Buenos Aires and doing a bit of a tour of S. America, so would like to drive out of Colonia the next day.
I like this style for ur video! But little too short😏
Not much to be done I guess. It was just explaining the ferry. Will have longer videos later this week.
I really like to say Buquebus. It's an orworm (or however you spell earworm in German. )
Jocelyn Wolters Ohrwurm. Didn't know, that this word is also known in north America.
Takeshi Nakagawa it might not be... Mark did his Master's in Berlin and is fluent, we have loads of German friends also. So when others use them, those useful words tend to creep into our household vocabulary. We use random German, Greek, Portuguese, Italian or Spanish words daily in this house. 😉
Jocelyn Wolters I am an American and I’ve heard ear-worm all my life😅 it might be because of the large German presents in the US
There must be some sort of regulatory constraint on operating the ferry service, because the ferries are really expensive, really popular & don't have good customer service. It's like South America's equivalent of the Eurostar.
Can't wait for your videos about Argentina!
Tip #1: use the bathroom before you get on the rocky boat
Tip #2: Bring medicine if you're prone to get seasick
Tip #3: Always take businesd class...unless you can't afford it
I highly recommend " Ginger rescue" all natural ingredient tablet ( chewable ) as an effective alternative for motion sickness !! Me & mom take it often & always works !! 💜🥁🐉🎤🎶💞
Wonderful video! 💗💗💗 Greetings from London! 🇬🇧
Cristian Gabriel Groman thank you
0:40 for all the fellas 😂😂😂😂
Do they serve beer in the waiting area? Please let it be "yes"
Everyone will want to know the price. I can't understand why there is no mention of it unless it's because of the inflation rate. Still, people would benefit from knowing it at the time of departure. It's basic and should have been included.
Great info but it would be a lot better with less background noise and no music... really hard to hear and understand you.
Belo, muito belo , estou curtindo.
You should do a series of videos where you travel to different countries on a limited budget to show people how they can save money on their holidays. For example staying in a town or city that's cheaper than staying in the capital, instead of using an expensive long haul airline like Virgin Atlantic or American airlines use a budget airlines like TUI fly, Thomas Cook airlines or Norwegian air shuttle, etc.
Mark!! How much did it cost??
Axelandre Markus In 2012 from Montevideo to BA cost me $950 USA dollars one way for my wife and I because we weren’t Argentina citizens
@@cmdrrgh that aint right. 1000 usd for a 1 hour boat ride. naah.
Sounds stupid but I looks like a ferry between the UK en Europe.
LOL Moment of the Day at 0:49
(Jocelyn makes a face. Mark then turns around.)
Mark (thinking): I saw that!
Argentina is literally the only SA country I really want to visit.
Uruguay is better
David Bauman montevideo is amazing too
Buenos Aires looks like Brooklyn in the 1970's. I almost broke my foot crossing la Calle Florida. I ain't going back!
Peru - just do it! And I don't mean just Machu Picchu.
Latinos comentando en ingles entre ellos jaja que curioso 😂😂
Pls visit nsw Australia 2018
we will get there hopefully next year. plans got all twisted around this summer so we had to switch out australia for argentina this summer
Traveling there must've been really tough.
What happened at 2:15??
SeaBands work well for sea sickness
Can u speak a second language fluently?
