Buquebus Ferry Question
 
Looking at the Buquebus ferry to Montevideo (assuming it's the hydrofoil) they list 3 different classes. Tourist $176, Special Class $222 and First Class $207 (all AR Pesos).
Can anyone tell me what the difference would be as far as comfort?
Thanks
Pat

slightly larger chairs. I would go with the Tourist class, we did and it was just fine. Have a great trip.

We took Buquebus without special seating and had no problem....just try to board early in the process. Also, to save ourselves a hassle that day, we went to the ferry office in advance to buy our tickets.

Hi, I have taken the Buquebus many times
although the difference in dollars is not much It is not worth it to travel in the upper class or classes. Travel in tourist it is almost the same.
With the difference have a drink, a coffee or something to eat on board.
They do not give you anything free in any of the 3 classes.
