Uruguay

Discover Uruguay from Argentina

About the destination

Uruguay is the easiest international trip from Argentina and a hidden gem of South America. Colonia del Sacramento, with its cobblestone streets and colonial charm, is just one hour by ferry from Buenos Aires. Montevideo combines beaches, gastronomy, and an enviable quality of life.

Punta del Este is the most exclusive resort in the region, with spectacular beaches, sophisticated nightlife, and a top-tier gastronomy scene. But Uruguay also surprises with its boutique vineyards, rural estancias, and the longest carnival in the world.

For Argentines, Uruguay is like visiting a beloved cousin: the culture is similar but has its own personality. Mate, asado, and charrua hospitality make you feel at home from the very first moment.
