2 days MVD . 4 days BUE , 2 days IGR would be a nice trip.
Add a day in Colonia if you wish but I would overnight to avoid hassles and that would also solve the problem where do I leave my bags? When we do a Uruguay trip we try and overnight in Colonia on the way back as the city has a nice vibe in the evening and is quite ttranquil.
MVD-BUE ferry is 2hrs 15mins / 2hrs 30 mins - COL - BUE ferry is an hour.- MVD has 2 frequencies per day , Colonia has 4-6 depending on the month , sometimes as much as 7/8 in January -February.
Weird to say, but no- we are not looking for budged lodging. We are with two kids, and we like hotels w/ amenities (not to sound snobby)- would love recs. I was thinking leaving MVD in the AM, spending the day in Colonia ,and taking the evening Ferry? Is that just too much? Is Colonia a must see?
