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
- Transport tips
I was there last year and had a great time. Wondering if things have changed.
Keen to hear from anyone who has been recently.
Cheers

Been there 12 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The friendly atmosphere is what keeps me coming back.

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

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

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was much better. Experience makes all the difference.

Did you use dating apps or find girls at the hotel?

I was there in last month and prices were great value. Spent about $120/day all-in.
My tip: go early evening.

I was there in last month and prices were about average. Spent about $100/day all-in.
My tip: midweek is much better.
