Montevideo Vacation Travel Guide | Expedia

Montevideo – Uraguay’s capital welcomes visitors to its seaside city bounds. Explore Montevideo with us and start planning a trip here of your own.

Uruguay is emerging as one of South America’s favorite destinations. Its capital #Montevideo has a warm, temperate climate, pleasant sea breezes and miles of boulevards.

#Tour the city while on #vacation here and #visit the towers, squares and cathedrals of its Old Towns. Wander along the 19-mile long promenade, La Rambla leads to the city’s favorite playground: De Los Pocitos Beach.

Enjoy the proud local tradition of “parrilla". The best way to try it is to buy cuts of meat in the Mercado del Puerto, and have those cooked for you on the spot.

#Explore the UNESCO-listed Old Town of Colonia del Sacramento, with its landmark lighthouse, sleepy Plaza de Armas, historic Portón de Campo and atmospheric Street of Sighs.

Uruguay may be small, but its big heart and relaxing vibe creates a lifetime of memories.

For now, we hope you enjoy watching this #travel #guide as much as we enjoyed making it.

¡Qué bonito es Uruguay caramba! Saludos amigos uruguayos desde Tikal, Guatemala.

I was there almost 10 years ago and loved it!!! I really liked the food, culture, customs, people, love of liberty, and all the old classic cars that people still drive. I drove through 15 of the 19 departments of Uruguay! I met the man outside of Colonia de Sacramento that is in the Guiness World Record Book for his pencil collection. I loved the Hot Springs in Dayman, south of Salto, way up north. I climbed to the top of that lighthouse in Colonia, but never did visit Paloma, which was past Punta Del Este. Great Vlog, you got my vote!!

Uruguay is such a peaceful country, truly the Switzerland of South America, greetings from Brazil.

I was use there for 8 days. Mentioning and comparing them to their neighbors so often isn't fair. They are quite different and are extremely proud to say they are Uruguayan. I found most of them very friendly and will help gringos. Their neighbors aren't as friendly. Especially in Buenos Aires. And in Uruguay I met so many people that can at least speak basic English. For their neighbors, not so much.

We'd love to visit Uruguay. We loved traveling in Argentina and Chile and hope to get there soon on our family travels.

Montevideo - my favourite city in Latin America! I will go there again in February! It is so great to walk thru Ciudad Vieja and along the Rambla and finish the day with a glass (or 2 or 3) of delicious Tannat red wine in Bodega Gato Negro in Punta Carretas! 😁
