Overview

Uruguay

The smallest Latin American country is a calm country with the respected tradition of the siesta and a largely European population. Though the beaches and luxurious sea sides attract tourists fond of lazing about, the country's capital Montevideo is packed with music, theatre and cinema, all set within remarkable architecture. Lovers of meat and keen riders will be delighted to encounter the gauchos, who will show you the 'old country' through hunting and walks.

pros

  •  Uruguay is a very rural country and one of the best ways of discovering it is to spend a few days with some true ?gauchos'.
  •  The country's small size means that visiting it can be combined with a visit to one of its neighbours, Brazil or Argentina.

cons

  •  Uruguay, together with its neighbouring country Argentina, is the most expensive country in Latin America.
  •  You will quickly tire of the landscapes in the centre of the country.

Country Guide

Our Editorial team's advice

During the tourist season from December to March, prices often double and it is a good idea to book in advance. After the summer period, many establishments are closed along the coast.
In order to cross the Rio de la Plata towards Buenos Aires, the older boats are preferable as they offer crossings in the early morning and evening and unlike the superquick ferries, the older boats offer outdoor decks.
