 one of the most popular bus
companies in Uruguay by Shakermaker
When taking a bus you will have to pay a fee which is in general cheap (about 60 cents of us dollar), you should tell the driver where you want to go and he will give you your ticket. If you are not sure where to get out of the bus you should try telling the driver (in spanish, otherwise he won't understand) and he will tell you when you got to the place you wanna go.

No sé si esto es un comentario sobre transporte, sobre costumbres locales o acerca de las actividades que se deben ver... Toma un ómnibus y ve a cualquier parte; en un viaje de media hora, verás todo tipo de personas subiendo al bus: vendedores ambulantes (que venden golosinas, encendedores, lapiceras, revistas, o lo que quieras), cantantes y actores que hacen una represntación, y lamentablemente, mendigos (incluso niños pidiendo dinero).

If you would like to search which buses (omnibus) will help you get from one place to another in the city of Montevideo, check the following online tool: www.montevideobus.com
It's a lot of help, given the lack of information on Montevideo's public transport system. Leave a Comment

Moving inside Montevideo during days hours is easy. Bus ticket is only the equivalent of usd 0,5. At night the frecuency is realy less, almost null.
As I said before, no distance take more than 40 min. to be covered.
The International Airport (Carrasco) is 40 min. from down town. To take a taxi there (yellow), at the airport is expensive (about usd 10), you´d better take a bus "Interdepartamental" is about usd 0,75.
If you take a taxi inside Montevideo (yellow and black) please be carefull with the change, they almost never have change.
NO BUS TICKET CAN BE BOUGHT IN OTHER CURRENCY THAN PESOS URUGUAYOS.
You`ll find a lot of exchanges in this city. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

Ride the bus! I thought I would never ride the bus, never catch me on one until the $25 round trip via taxi to Carrasco was eating away at my wallet. They are safe, and believe it or not, fun! Great way to see the city on the cheap and people watch. You can't beat it for 15 pesos. There are also direct buses signified by the letter "D", such as D1, D11, etc. they cost 19 pesos.
Need to catch another bus ask for a una hora, easy to do, as you get on the bus and hand the driver your pesos just say "una hora", make sure they acknowledge you, look at your ticket, if it says "Comun" give it back and ask for a una hora again, they'll understand. This pass will allow you to transfer to another bus for free.
I ride the bus all the time and have never had any problems, I hardly speak any espanol as well. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

A bus ticket to MVD from Colonia cost 153P/$6.12USD and took a bit over 2 hours. This bus terminal was very nice, clean and modern. The best part was finding an office dispensing tourist info, maps and hotel bookings. They spoke English and were incredibly helpful.
We told them what kind of hotel we wanted and the desired location. They had pictures, prices and room information. They helped us to decide which ones seemed to meet our needs and called around until they found one that had the type of room we wanted. Much easier than us wandering around, guidebook in hand and just hoping for the best. No charge to us for this service.
One of the men from the tourist office then escorted us to a Buquebus office in the terminal where we were able to book a city tour for the next day. Cost $10USD each.
We then hired a remis to take us to our hotel downtown. The cost was 65P/$2.60USD. We were told a taxi might be cheaper, assuming the driver didn't drive around town a bit. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus

The easiest way into the centre of town from the terminal is on one of the many local buses which run from outside the terminal to Plaza Independiente. The bus takes about 15 minutes and costs less than a dollar. Leave a Comment Theme: Bus
