Day trip from BA to Colonia
I will be in BA for a week at the end of May. I was thinking about taking a day trip to Colonia. Will I need to have Uraguayan pesos or do they accept AR$ and/or US$? Also, is Colonia worth the time and money? I saw a posting on this forum that said it was not. Does anyone have any input about this? Thanks

Hi, odosmom!
About your "Also, is Colonia worth the time and money?", it is difficult to answer, because it's a matter of taste.
I would much rather go to http://tinyurl.com/3xna57 but that's just MY taste.
You'll definitely get a better rate of exchange if you take dollars than if you take pesos. In fact, I found paying in dollars to be quite common in Uruguay

The link is correct and I provided it so you could see the reviews they get.
I wouldn't call it a "stable". I would call it an "estancia" where the main activity is riding a horse.
Have a great time in our country.
