Welcome to UruguayNow!

UruguayNow is the first dedicated, constantly updated English-language travel guide to the beautiful and varied country of Uruguay – with a particular focus on Montevideo, its capital city. The guide contains a wealth of practical details on how to make the most of your stay in Montevideo, at the country's beach resorts, and in Uruguay's relatively undiscovered interior.

Whether you are a first-time or regular visitor, we hope that you'll find UruguayNow useful, informative and entertaining.

For essential tourist information, reviews of Montevideo's accommodation options and its dining scene – and a guide to the city's sights – please click on the buttons at the top of this page.

For features on unusual and distinctive aspects of life in Uruguay, browse through the selection in the middle of our start page. Whether you are thinking of coming to Uruguay for real estate, antiques, football or the high life in Punta del Este, we have something for you.

The whole guide can be printed out as a pdf file. Simply click on the button on the start page and make your own guide. It's free!

UruguayNow is also dedicated to searching out excellence in the country's offer of hotels and restaurants. That's why, starting with Montevideo, our researchers have visited scores of accommodation and dining options in the city to bring you our choices of Best Hotel, Best-Value Hotel, Best Restaurant and Most Innovative Dining Experience for 2010. And when hotels and restaurants get things wrong, we'll also tell you.

Although the guide is subject to copyright, we are always delighted for brief passages to be quoted in other publications with a clear indication of the source.
