Uruguay
In this charming country, three cities stand out. Punta del Este is notorious for its beach resorts and nightlife, Montevideo is the political and economic capital, and Colonia boasts a unique history and has picturesque landscapes. Colonia’s proximity to Buenos Aires makes it a perfect day trip from the city, or as an extension. Uruguay however, is deserving of more than just a “sneak peak,” and although small, has much to uncover and experience.
