Fighting for the limelight between Brazil and Argentina is little visited Uruguay, a rural gem of a country where cattle easily outnumber its tiny population. Argentineans have been hitting Uruguay's beaches in Punta del Este for years and we suggest you do the same for some r&r at the end of one of our South American adventures. Or take your time and reach Uruguay by ferry from Buenos Aires and explore inland. Pretty Colonia is worth a mooch, while capital Montevideo has bags of South American charm. The rolling hills and wide, empty beaches are perfect horse riding territory so you can roam Uruguay gaucho-style.
Montevideo
Where Buenos Aires buzzes, Montevideo quitely hums a pleasant tune. This wonderfully civilised city is well worth exploring.
Colonia
Step back in time in Colonia, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with perfectly preserved Portuguese colonial architecture. Just a fifty minute hop on the hydrofoil from Buenos Aires.
Carmelo
Check in to the Four Seasons Carmelo and experience life at a Uruguayan pace. River beaches, pine forests and unadulterated Four Seasons luxury. Bliss.
Punta del Este
Fabulous, glamourous Punta has had the Argentinean and international jetset flocking for years – and with good reason. Soak up the sun, shop ‘til you drop and party dusk ‘til dawn in this lively little hotspot. Those in the know head out to sleepy fishing village Jose Ignacio for more simple pleasures.
