Casapueblo in Punta Del Este

[tedandandy]

WE are hoping to visit Casapueblo when we are in Punta Del Este. Does anyone have any hints on how to get there?. Is there a bus or is it a taxi ride.

Thanks

If you can find a tour that also includes the Ralli, you would get more for your money.  Casapueblo is 13Km from Punta del Este - there are no buses.

Thanks for that. The ship has a tour going to both Ralli and Casapueblo.  WE are not great art gallery people, more interested in just the architecture, so maybe it will just have to be a taxi ride

Rent a car.   I simply walk and pick one up.   A cab is not going to be cheap,   Superior to have your own transportation and add a whole bunch more touring.  plus make good use of your port time.  

 

Very simple "small town"  driving.   No traffic etc.   I've rented cars multiple times in this port,  including a few weeks ago.

What is the rental car agency you use in Punta Del Este,? approx. cost/day? are they pretty fast getting you on your way?

Thanks

There are multiple vendors.   Your other questions have no answer.  Car rental prices aren’t fixed.   YOU have do a search for your particular day and car type.    Supply and demand.    
 

You will have about a 15++ minute walk back and forth to the rentals.      
 

No clue how fast/slow pick up/return will be in the future- for you.

Agree with other posters.  Rent a car.   We spent three days in Punta.    Driving is easy, roads are fine.  Lots of beaches to visit for an hour or so if you are so inclined.   We rented in Montevideo so no idea about local rentals.
