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
- Best hotels near the scene
I was there 6 months ago and had a good time. Wondering if things have changed.
Keen to hear from anyone who has been recently.
Cheers
Best time of year to visit Uruguay?

Did you use freelancers or find girls at the hotel?

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

I was there in March and prices were great value. Spent about $120/day all-in.
My tip: midweek is much better.

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

Adding my experience: scene has bounced back since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 15-20%.

Word of caution — be careful with street touts. Other than that, great destination.
