The Peruvian National Team will face Uruguay on March 24 at 6:30 pm (Peruvian time) at the Centenario Stadium in Montevideo. The match is of the utmost importance for both teams since it could define a direct qualification for the Qatar 2022 World Cup.
Being a visiting party, supporting the Bicolor will not be an easy task, much less cheap since the cost of living in Uruguay is one of the highest in the region.
How much does it cost to travel to Uruguay?
The total average of the trip is in US$ 750; that is, round-trip plane tickets from Lima to Montevideo, although with stops in Sao Paulo and Brazil.
If you want to save a little more on it, Edwar Apaza, a member of La Blanquirroja, one of the official clubs of the Peruvian National Team, points out that a direct trip to Buenos Aires could be made (or also with a stopover in Santiago de Chile). This trip could be priced between US$400 and US$500.
After that, it is suggested to travel in “ships”, a popular means of transport in Argentina and that connects with Montevideo. The round trip ticket has an approximate cost of US$ 150 from port to port, for a round trip of 3 hours.
As for the stay, the hotel offer offers rooms for US$30 or US$40 per night, while food could also be somewhat expensive, according to Apaza.
If you add the US$300 per ticket to the stadium set by the Uruguayan Football Association (AUF), the total trip would cost more than US$1,100.
