You are in the centre (and close to the Tourist office (Casona de SENATUR) on 515 Nstr. Señora de la Candelaria c/ Mcal. Estigarribia).

Some buses that pass to neighboring towns such as Ypacarai and Itaguá also pass through Areguá. Main bus lines that go through Areguá include No. 111 Aregueña and the No. 11 San Augustine and the No. 56 Cerro Koi. You should make sure to ask the bus driver if they go into the center of town (el centro), instead of the outlying rural areas (las companias).
