The host of this brand new travel show fell in love with Montevideo. The wine, soccer, carnival, food… so many things to do.

Montevideo has around more than a dozen movie theatres including 3 non-profit movie theatres. Movies are subtitled so no dubbing.

Looking for the best seafood in Uruguay? The cuisine of Uruguay’s most eastern province, Rocha, is chock full of fresh seafood.

At Full Sailing, you hire a boat, board, kayak or instructor by the hour. It’s a perfect option in Uruguay, where most sailing clubs are members-only.

Minutes from downtown, Montevideo’s leafy El Prado district is a photographer’s paradise of ghostly mansions, stately art galleries and tangled greenery.

Most museums in Montevideo are run by the state and free to visit. The Gaucho Museum is located in a fantastic “palacio” worth a visit in its own right.

My favourite park in Montevideo, Parque Rodó has tons of stuff to do for adults and children alike and the best view of the sunset in the city.

You can buy tickets for concerts and carnival shows in Montevideo at box offices and Abitab and Red Pagos/RED UTS – the stores are found all over Uruguay.
