My last outing from Buenos Aires was to Tigre, this time I had company; Steve who was here on a tango holiday joined me for the day. We travelled to Tigre on the Tren de la Costa, the more expensive tourist train. We got off the train for a quick look round San Isidro, which is on the Rio de la Plata, but half an hour was not long enough to find the coast and historical centre.
From Tigre we went on a 2 hr trip on a catamaran, we sat upstairs to get a good view of the amazing houses. We travelled up the Rio Sarmiento, past the Museo Sarmiento. We then travelled along the Rio San Antonio and Canal Vinculacion, this area was completely different. There were no houses, the river was very wide surrounded by vegetation, quite shallow along the edge with reeds growing in the water. Amazing views of Buenos Aires in the distance from the Rio San Antonio.
