Montevideo
Montevideo has a unique personality, characterized by a laid-back ambience, café culture, and a unique confluence of cultural traditions resulting from the people’s Italian, Spanish and African ancestry.
There is plenty to do in Montevideo - day and night!
Visit a gallery or market during the day and attend a concert, soccer match or milonga in the evening!
Montevideo is a unique combination of simple, sophisticated and cultured. Montevideo is particularly rich in literature, music, theater, and visual arts – there are many museums, galleries, and theatres that are well worth visiting. Visitors to Montevideo are often surprised by the European feel, as well as the kindness and generosity of the people.
Considered one of the safest cities in Latin America, people are generally friendly, helpful and engaging. In fact, it's not uncommon to strike up a lively conversation with an Uber driver, a shop keeper, or even the people sitting at the next table over in a café!
While many of the museums, galleries, and restaurants are located in historic Ciudad Vieja (Old City), there are many neighborhoods in Montevideo worth visiting. We highly recommend
You can easily spend several days exploring all the interesting sites and activities that Montevideo has to offer!
