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
- Apps or platforms to use
I was there a while back and had a great time. Wondering if things have changed.
Any recent trip reports would be helpful.
Cheers

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

Word of caution — some online profiles are fake. Other than that, great destination.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Did you use an agency or find girls at bars?

Also recommend downloading Google Translate before you go. Essential.

Agreed on all points. Make sure to use a VPN.
