There is no doubt that Uruguay has it all. When it comes to nature and tourism, it combines mountains, hot springs, littoral river sceneries, rural plains, vineyards and, of course, one of the most important metropolis in the world: Montevideo. Its cobbled streets speak of its very rich literary life, of candombe and of the artistic culture in the Río de la Plata area. Its beaches, bathed both by the shy Río de la Plata and the brave sea, are visited year round and they welcome tourists with an accommodation infrastructure that meets every need. The same happens in every other important city in this beautiful country.

Uruguay is divided by departments and each of them presents different climates and geographical features that invite visitors to discover and enjoy the differences, similarities and typical characteristics of its natural, cultural and historical beauties.

The City of Montevideo is the capital of the country and one of the most eye-catching cities in America, both due to its emblematic features and to its cosmopolitan character. Colonia del Sacramento, a tourist destination itself, is another very picturesque city in Uruguay, where a rich history of disputes between the Spanish and the Portuguese find harmony in its architecture, its streets and single daily details. At both cities, visitors may find accommodation and enjoy their stay as well as organize their trip towards the various destinations in this wonderful country.
