Tigre Delta Tours & Tickets

Tigre is located in the Paraná Delta, a vast wetland system spanning over 17,000 km² where the Río de la Plata tributaries branch into thousands of islands and channels.

The town was named after jaguars (tigres in Spanish) that once roamed the delta, though they are now extinct in the region.

Tigre's iconic Puerto de Frutos market, established in the 19th century, originally served as a trading hub for fresh produce transported by boat from delta farms.

The delta's unique ecosystem supports over 350 bird species, making it a global hotspot for birdwatching and wildlife observation.

Tigre is only 30 km north of Buenos Aires but feels like a distinct world—accessible by train in under an hour, it's Argentina's primary river and wetland destination.

The town sits at the convergence of three major rivers: the Paraná, Uruguayo, and Río de la Plata, creating a complex tidal and freshwater environment.
