Welcome to Uruguay, a land of world-class wine, glamorous beach resorts, gaucho heritage and five-star hotels—for those in the know.

Uruguay is sometimes overlooked on a luxury tour of South America, due to its better-known neighbors of Argentina and Brazil. But visit for yourself and you’ll soon see that Uruguay is the continent’s best-kept secret.

Immerse yourself in a world of fine food and wine in the capital, Montevideo, experiencing the trendy bars and restaurants around the harbor. Soak up the colonial architecture of the attractive Old Town, dipping into museums that showcase everything from the country’s carnival traditions to the gaucho lifestyle.

A wine tour in Uruguay is another major highlight, with Colonia, Canelones and Maldonado offering some of the country’s best. Then you have Colonia del Sacramento, a charming colonial town dating back to the 17th century. Wind your way along Colonia’s cobblestone lanes, admiring the well-preserved architecture of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Uruguayan culture and tradition is proudly on show throughout its rural regions too, with working horse ranches and scenic estancias making for a refreshing alternative to the cosmopolitan cities. 

Of course, there’s no better place to wind down than on one of the inviting stretches of golden sandy beach, and Uruguay has plenty of those up its sleeve. From the glitzy beach resorts along Punta del Este, to the laidback town of Jose Ignacio, Uruguay’s coast has an array of coastal gems in store for you.

So come to Uruguay on a tailormade tour with Atelier to get in on South America’s best-kept secret.
