Relax: the porteño style

Just 28 kilometers away from Buenos Aires city, you’ll find an oasis of peace and relax, which is known by all porteños as their ideal weekend getaway.  
Easily reached either by car, train or bus, Tigre is the perfect escape from a hectic day in the big metropolis.

Tigre got its name from the Europeans who discovered the area, and supposedly hunted tigers and jaguars here.

The main touristic attraction is the delta of Rio Parana, and the tourists will surely be fascinated by the image of numerous rivers, canals and little islands. Public transportation is done through boats, exactly like in Venice, Italy, and this only increases the charm of the region.

These small islands, on which Tigre is found today, were created after several floods, when much of the settlements were destroyed. 

The scenic landscapes and magnificent images become easily the best choice, for a quiet family day or a romantic anniversary.

If you’re into outdoor sports: kayaks and sky jets can be rented out from the local travel agents, and if you’re looking for something more adventurous, El Parque de la Costa has crazy roller coasters and other thrill rides; basically, Tigre has something for each of us!
