Getting around like a local. Flag down the bus—or it won’t stop. Don’t tip your taxi driver—but don’t expect him to load your luggage! Essential maps.
The Montevideo international airport is 15 miles from the city centre. You can take a taxi, shuttle or bus. The most common way is private transfer.
It’s easy to travel around Uruguay by bus, even if you don’t speak Spanish. A centralised website collects timetables, travel durations and ticket prices.
And not like a tourist. This interactive map loads really fast. Use it to travel by bus or on foot and get around Montevideo like a local.
How to call for a cab in Montevideo—it’s easy, even when you don’t speak Spanish—, how much they cost, when it may be difficult to get hold of one.
It’s really, really easy to get online in Uruguay. In fact, Uruguay is the only country in the world to completely implement One Laptop Per Child.
