Puerto de Frutos

It is a very nice local attraction for a day trip from Buenos Aires, my friend and I really enjoyed the river cruise and the local cuisine and coffeehouses! Cheers!

Sept.25: We wanted to visit the fruit market (Tuesday), unfortunately everything was closed. Seemed only open Thursday till Sunday, Monday to Wednesday closed.

We stopped by the semi open air market place / shopping mall on our way to a tour of the Tigre Delta. There were one or two interesting shops with things we could never pack, but in general, our idea of touring doesn't involve any shopping so this was not a highlight for us. For others on the tour, it was like a shoppers paradise with all sorts of touristy things. We enjoyed walking around and looking at the working ships at the docks.

Cool but I expected more. Its insanely big and lively BUT the variety is awful I felt like I kept walking past the same shop just branded differently. Plus it was hard to find local artisanal shops.. most seemed to sell imported goods.. which is not what I was looking for. However I would still give it a chance as it is very unique and pretty since its along the river ! BTW book a boat tour of the surrounding area its very interesting and relaxing (:

The Puerto de Frutos in the Tigre area of Buenos Aires is an amazing destination to explore local culture and art. This market is filled with intriguing shops offering handmade and local products, such as art, food, handcrafted decor items, and much more. The atmosphere is notably lively and vibrant, with the colorful market attracting both locals and travelers. It's a place to wander, discover unique pieces, and feel the authentic vibe of the region. Whether you're looking for gifts or simply embarking on an adventurous discovery, the Puerto de Frutos provides a distinct experience that mirrors the cultural diversity of the area.

Short stop on the way to Tigre Delta. Very disappointing, only a few shops opened. Would be more inviting on the weekend.

Nice place with several options for shopping (home decoration, clothes, etc.). This is one the highlights when visiting Tigre and jt is also very close to the Casino, so visitors can do both attractions in sequence. It was busy when I was there, but nothing out of normality so it was pretty enjoyable. If you want to pay less for food though, go somewhere else nearby.

Very nice market with rich history. Its perfect for a day trip from Buenos Aires. I enjoyed it with a couple of friends, browsing through the nice little shops and enjoying a boat trip on the river. There is also a rollercoadter park and a museum close by that you could check out in one go. 😊
