Join Maita and me as we talk about Uruguay, an under-the-radar destination for Americans. We'll introduce you to the hip José Ignacio, the "Hamptons" of South America, and the cosmopolitan city of Montevideo. We'll explore the active adventures on land like learning to play polo, going for a moonlit horseback ride, and hiking.
We'll touch on the variety of watersports from surfing and kiteboarding to kayaking down rivers. For those who love art and architecture, there are sites not to be missed, including the unique circular bridge and Casa Pueblo.
The food scene is renowned – from the traditional Uruguayan BBQ to vineyard picnics to Francis Mallmann's chiringuito on the beach and his fine-dining restaurants. As always we'll talk about a few of our favorite hotels including the Vik properties.
