You simply have to drive 10 mn on the "Autopista J. Balaguer". You will know you are in Villa Gonzales wen you see the tobacco factory "La Tabacalera" on your right-hand side.

The turn off is before La Tabacalera. There is a Jehova's Witness church on your right, just at the turn off.
There is a long straight just before this, with the Instituto de Tabaco and an Isla gasoline station on your left. Just about 500 meters ahead is the turn off.
Now, if you miss the turn off, then take you next right.

then you take the second right (dangerous intersection!!) after you pass the Jehova's Witness church!...Be careful you don't get rear-ended...not kidding. the gate is 100 yards after you turn right.

You service cigarette making machinery??? they have some interesting stuff from when Winston (RJ Reynolds) was there.....I think that they had/have the only 10 count box making machine.. Might not be true any longer.
