Has anyone been to Uruguay recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- New venues worth checking out
I was there last year and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.
Any recent trip reports would be helpful.
Cheers
Uruguay vs last year — has it changed?

Adding my experience: scene has evolved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more online activity.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

First time was overwhelming but exciting. Second time was so much more efficient. Experience makes all the difference.

Also recommend downloading Maps.me before you go. Essential.
