Wine tasting, shopping or a night out watching tango take your fancy? Come and experience Uruguay4U’s best gastronomic and cultural tours!
Explore the vineyards near Montevideo – one of South America’s largest wine producers – to learn about the different processes in their wine making, as well as sampling a lot of the wine they have on offer. If you’re not much of a drinker then you can shop till you drop with an expert guide, touring the markets and high end boutique shops of fashionable Montevideo. Once the evening rolls around the city gets ready to tango, and so should you! Learn about the roots of Tango and Candombe – the country’s iconic music – created by Uruguay’s African slaves, then enjoy dinner and a tango show to round off the night. You could also see yourself immersed in the gaucho lifestyle. Experience life in the Uruguayan cowboys’ shoes as you travel to the countryside of Estancia. Enjoy traditional home cooking, walks on the ranch and horse rides as you pretend to be a gaucho for a day.
Football fans amongst you rejoice, as Montevideo isn’t all about shopping, wine and tango. The first World Cup was held here in 1930 and you could be touring the Centenario Stadium on a Uruguay4U Football tour, where Uruguay lifted the very first Jules Rimet, and visit the Football museum, declared by FIFA as the only historical monument of world football. Learn more about the history of Uruguayan football, culminating with a stadium tour of El Palacio Penarol, home to the most successful team in the country – Club Atletico Penarol.
