Uruguay Vacations

Nestled between the massive countries of Argentina and Brazil, Uruguay is the smallest Spanish-speaking country in South America. Although Uruguay may seem like an afterthought for travelers looking for the ultimate South America vacation, this tiny yet spirited country packs plenty of punch.

From cosmopolitan beaches and glitzy resorts set on pristine beaches to serene rolling hills, charming colonial towns and lush vineyards producing world-class wines, Uruguay offers something for everyone. Enjoy water sports off the south coast, explore Montevideo's beloved La Rambla boardwalk, discover the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Colonia del Sacramento or watch a soccer game at Estadio Centenario, where Uruguay won the first World Cup in 1930. In February, the streets come alive with music and Carnival celebrations.
