Rent a Car in Downtown Parana

Paraná is the capital of Entre Ríos province and sits on the mighty Paraná River, approximately 500 km north of Buenos Aires. By car, you can easily explore the city's historic center, the riverside promenade Costanera, and the surrounding deltas. There is one rental company in the center to help you get started.

Paraná is connected to Santa Fe via the Túnel Subfluvial, a 2.4 km tunnel under the river – a unique experience in itself. Parque Urquiza along the riverbank is a popular excursion destination, and Diamante with its sand dunes is just about 45 km to the south. Book your rental car in advance since availability is limited with only one rental company in the city.

Drive along Ruta Provincial 11 north to experience the beautiful countryside of Entre Ríos and local estancias. Parking in the center is easy to find at Plaza 1° de Mayo. How far is it from Paraná to Buenos Aires by car?

It is approximately 480 km and takes about 5 hours via Ruta Nacional 12 and the A001 highway. Can I drive the rental car across the border to Uruguay? It depends on the rental company's terms – always check border crossing permissions before booking, as additional fees and documentation may be required.

Are there parking options at Costanera in Paraná? Yes, along Costanera Sur and Norte there is free street parking, though it can be tight during weekends and summer.
