Travel: Argentina’s Tigre Delta

If you find yourself in Buenos Aires, take the train out to the Tigre Delta for a long relaxing weekend just like the locals do. And when you go, stay at Casona La Ruchi.

This bed and breakfast is in a perfect location just across the bridge from the train station, close to the ferry and next to a bunch of restaurants. You’ll get a huge room, a balcony and swimming pool surrounded by lush gardens. The owners are lovely but don’t speak much English, which is actually kind of nice for those of us who don’t enjoy normal B&B chatter.

Rob and I spent a few days at this hotel back in December 2004. It was so relaxing and a great break in the middle of our three weeks in Buenos Aires.
