*** Video shot BEFORE Coronavirus outbreak *** We're back with our South America series...and Uruguay was one of our favorite countries. It seemed like it was under the radar for tourists, but we loved our time there!
The Near & Away "under the radar" for tourists from USA mostly, simply because they don't even know the country exists. Glad you enjoyed your short visit. There's a lot more to see in Uruguay
Desde San Juan, Argentina, les mando un afectuoso saludo a los uriguayos! Les pido disculpas por algún descerebrado que dice que Uruguay es una provincia argentina. Gracias a Dios que no es asi!! Que el Todopoderoso proteja por siempre a la gran República Oriental del Uruguay de los politicos argentinos!!
Uruguay is always regarded as a hidden gem by traveling aficionados. Delicious food, beautiful places, the whole country is very quiet, and the people are super chill.
As an Argentinian I admit Uruguay is much better than us (so many Spanish speakers think we speak the same "castellano" and we do indeed but we have our differences as well ;-) ) They know how to deal with tourism. Safe country, well organised, efficient and punctual services, clean. Uruguayan people are warm and good mannered. They are known as the Switzerland from South America for all these positive aspects but specially for their safe banks.
An efficient airport experience will start our trip off right! I always enjoy your eating adventures. Everything always looks so good. I really want to Uruguay now!
That's right lady, Keanu Reeves stayed at Sofitel Carrasco Hotel, the Rolling Stones and many more, Einstein and García Lorca in other times. Uruguay is called "the pearl of the Río de la Plata" There were many beautiful places to visit, I recommend Colonia del Sacramento (a bubble in time), the beaches in the east of the country, Maldonado, Rocha, the in / deep countryside and the Corridor of Painted Birds, a western coastal area of the country with a lot of cultural variety and rich nature. Muy buena reseña de Montevideo, Bienvenidos a Uruguay!
Thank You for your video. My wife and I first visited Uruguay in 2009 and after years of research, we were looking for the perfect place to retire, we had just moved back to Canada we had been living in New Zealand for 15 years and had thought we had found it and more in NZ. We are both from British Columbia and the lower mainland. I had formally been a flight attendant with CP Air for 16 years moving to NZ in 1995. New Zealand was and is a fantastic country and exceeded all expectations but, never felt like home. Visiting UY 2 months at a time every year, January and February in 2012 we had just purchased a small farm and had a near-fatal car accident, we spent 15 weeks in British Hospital getting well. Recovery took several years and we had sold the property we purchased along the way. Now it is time to finish what we started in 2012. Completing some updates and renovations to our rural log home in the mountains this fall and winter, then in the spring of 2022 list our property for sale and fingers crossed to return to UY and work on our Spanish
Hi Robert, Your near-fatal car accident was in Uruguay? Or UK? Were you in a rural area when it happened? We are looking to retire in Uruguay now also.
We are very proud of our country but we are mostly humble and low profile. Perhaps the best definition of Uruguayan approach to life is the slogan of our soccer national team: “más que nadie, menos que ninguno, distintos a todos” (more than anyone less than nobody, different to all). All honest people are welcome to Uruguay 🇺🇾
I couldn't agree more...everyone we met in Uruguay were so nice! Looking forward to visiting again, once things get back to normal! Thanks for watching!
It's difficult to translate that slogan properly. To say "More than anyone" es decir "Mas que cualquiera". Seria mas preciso decir "No more than anyone" o "More than no one" / "More than nobody". De todos modos ellos te entienderon el sentimiento.
@@theselector4733 you are right. Quick translation :) anyway I think we alway welcome foreigners and although some people say we are 'grey' I think we are low profile and take life easy. We do not believe better or worse than anybody. Thanks for the correction.
It’s and merchandisers have searched the world for the best tasting organic grass-fed beef and found it in the South American country of Uruguay. The cattle are raised on small family ranches by gauchos using traditional methods of pasture-based farming. Uruguay has both endless green pastures and an extremely temperate climate; there is no snow, grass is present all year long. This means cattle are never fed on straw or hay in the winter months, which tends to degrade taste.
@@TheNearAndAway Actually Uruguay are doing a great job with red wines, with wineries from east to west and south to north of the country! Bodega Bouza, Bodega Stagnari, Bodega Garzon, Bodega Bertolini & Broglio, Bodega Juanico and others produce great red wines, not only Tannats, also Cabernet sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Carmenere and blends of them. About the meat, mostly of his best meat are exported to China, UE, US, and the few "exportation level" meat you can find in Uruguay are expensive compared with Argentina (maybe no expensive for tourist come with a good budget). Another great food in Uruguay I really recommend to the tourist come here are the milk derivatives, specially the cheeses are greats! Also the could cuts are fantastic, like mortadella (try mortadela de bocha Otonnello with pistacho), salami, hams.. I think fishes and sea food are also interesting in Uruguay, but Uruguayan wineries need to pay more attention to their white and second fermentation wines to marriage and be at similar level of their sea food and cheeses.
I haven't been to Uruguay yet, still on my list to do ... so excited since you said it's your favourite south american country :D thanks also for all the useful information ... but strangely I feel very hungry after watching your video :D btw: my best steak was in south africa shortly followed by argentinia ... can't wait for Uruguay tho :D
My friend and I visited Uruguay about 9 years ago. Absolutely loved it there mostly because it is a civilized society. We want to visit again after Covid.
I have a son which is Half Uruguayan went there 3 years ago to meet his family and was so in love with Uruguay that we’re planning to visit maybe this year. Un abrazo a todos los Uruguayos.
I would love to visit Uruguay, I am a big fan of all things beefy, so this would definitely be an ideal holiday experience for me! I went to Argentina, and so far that has been the best steak of my life so far, be interesting to see how Uruguay compares.
Thank you so much for watching! We absolutes loved our time in your beautiful country! We can’t wait to come back and visit again...your husband is so lucky to live in such a great place!
Always exciting to add another country to your list! So many cattle, that is crazy! That meat platter looks mouth-watering. Wayne loves the vintage cars. Damn Keanu! 😂 We have been craving empanadas...can't wait to get to a South American country to try some. Notice your chapters...has it been shown for videos to do better like that? (You can PM if you'd rather)...
Visit Balneario " Atlantida" " Piriapolis " and Punta del Este too Termas in Departures of Salto.too Lavalleja " villa serrana " and Colonia del Sacramento .Eat the hamburguer " chivito"
The hotel looked stunning! So incredibly beautiful! We didn't know that Uruguay is such a small country, good thing that they have so many cows for so much delicious food! You guys always go to the best restaurants, amazing the wine pairing, you made us so hungry! Those car in the courtyard, were still working?
Well, it is considered a small country because in South America most of countries are huge, specially Brazil which is north of Uruguay, besides we are only 3.5 million people... but the territory itself is not that small, it is larger than many European countries, such as England.
I recently found the channel, I love the way they enjoy what they see and experience. Thank you very much for visiting our country and for all the nice things you said.
Wow, so much food! You guys truly travel for food. Lots of meat though. You said it is somewhat inexpensive, can I ask how much your dinner was, to get an idea?
It wasn't uncommon for dinner to be around $20-30 USD for two people...that would include steak and wine 🍷. Jacinto was a little more expensive (maybe $50 for the two of us) but compared to what you pay in the U.S. for steak (and wine) it is extremely reasonable! Thanks for watching...hope you're doing well!
Great Vlog about Uruguay! I was thoroughly impressed with the country as well. Drove through 15 of the 19 departments there, met the man outside of Colonia de Sacramento that is in the Guinness World Record Book, for his pencil collection. Enjoyed the food, meeting the people, and all of the classic cars. Would like a return trip!
After travel quite extensively I’ve come to appreciate Uruguay compared to what I used to think about it many years ago. I think it’s a great place to live. I don’t think I’d change Montevideo for any other place ever.
First of all guys I just wanted to say congratulations. Nearing the 4K mark and thats amazing :) You deserve it. You really make fantastic videos - great narration, lovely shots, its also informative and fun! Really great stuff :) Was wondering - what gear do you use for your shots out of curiosity?
Hello my friends hope you are well and having a great day so far. Just found you today and really pleased we have your videos are awesome. Fantastic footage and great editing skills too. We are real Foodies too so love your content. You really captured the magic of the country, Uruguay is not a place you would think of visiting. Really appreciate you sharing your experience with us. Keep up the great work my friends, Stay safe and take care, catch up soon God bless you ❤️👍🙏
Thank you so much for the kind words! We're glad you like the content...we're catching up on a few things, but we have more videos from South America coming up soon! Thanks for watching!
12 million cattle! The Sofitel looks like a grand government building--I was shocked to find out that was where you were staying. How do they become among the top fifty vineyards in the world?? Oh Keanu! : 0 We just subscribed, would love to be YT friends!
Definitely need to visit Uruguay! We were really surprised how much we loved our time there. Probably the first country in South America we would go back too!
I had a feeling you would make it out to Bodega Bouza! Lol! Love their wines especially the Tannat.. Lunch looked amazing there.. We just did a sit down tasting because we arrived late in the afternoon.. Did you guys make it out to Punta del Este too? Hope all is well with you guys!
They say that Uruguay has 3 cows per person and we are 3 million 4 hundred thousand so add up the numbers there are more 🐄 than humans . Simply 🇺🇾 uruguay
Siempre los idiotas con el paisito.poca población no quiere decir pequeño.En Europa hay muchos países mucho más chicos que Uruguay.Nunca escuche a un belga,portugués,griego húngaro,búlgaro.etc llamarse a sí mismo paisito
Since hopefully you will come back, Villa Serrana is definitely a good recommendation for the future, I think you'll really like it. José Ignacio is very nice for people who can afford it, particularly in summer, when it tends to get quite crowded. Casapueblo's on the way, so that's a stop you want to make, and if you go to José Ignacio you just have to go to Punta del Este because you're just next to it. It's a pretty city, very popular, but not my cup of tea exactly. The beach is really nice there, though. There's a round bridge in Garzón, not far from there, which I have actually never been to, but it's very nice from what I know. Punta del Diablo, in Rocha, is lovely, but a lot more... rustic, as are the surrounding beaches, and there's a national park with pretty beaches and an old fortress in it like twenty minutes away. I suggest you visit off-season (October/November or March/April). There's actually a bunch of nice places, but those are a few favourites. The weather can be kind of crummy even in summer, and it's really quite unpredictable, so that's something to keep in mind. Anyway... Glad you liked it here.
Hi from Chicago, great video 👍🏻 looking to visit Uruguay when things in the world get a lil better lol Montevideo and punta del este I heard food is amazing and will definitely visit el Mercado del puerto
Grilling seems to be a pretty big thing in Uruguay! I'd never seen cone-shaped barbecues like that but that meat just made me hungry: the wizard did work his magic :D
What awesome vids u two make! 😍😍😍 we enjoy every second! We visited a town called Pan de Azúcar and ate there OMG! How can they make cow’s brain a delicatessen??? Going back next year.
Thank you for the kind words! Whoa...cow brains..and you liked them? I generally don’t like the texture of them...but it sounds like you had a great time! I wish we were going back next year!! Hope you guys have a fantastic trip!
The Near & Away You deserve those words, great entertainment! And yes, the brain was grilled, wrapped in aluminum foil and covered with “adobo” (chimichurri), I want more! 😋 (zombie talk). Hope you can go back soon. Also, now (in September) they have La Rural Del Prado, check that out, awesome!
Love the travel videos! Would you consider putting the local prices you paid for the meals?? It would help us plan for when we go to these places. Some places don't list prices on their website or don't have websites at all! Thanks'
Uruguay was one of our favorite places we visited! The people, the food, the wine…everything was so great. When we go back to South America, we would definitely visit again. Argentina was also so great…and Buenos Aires is just a ferry ride away from Montevideo. Hope that helps and thanks for watching of videos!
@@TheNearAndAway Thanks for the reply, I was born in Montevideo, moved to Bs. As. when I was 2 and visited Montevideo every summer, then moved to the US at 12. I was just wondering how much others appreciate the raw beauty or Uruguay, so thanks again for your comments. BTW, your videos really capture the moment, nicely done.
Is expensive for the working class and regular tourist.. for the wealthy is cheap.. that day spend in Uruguay drinking great wines and eating the Best steak in the world probably cost them $500 .. California or Europe and not getting the quality of our meats at all.. $1,500 ,3,000.. so yeah for them is not expensive
@@TheNearAndAway I loved your video!! 😊 Next time you should visit Colonia, Piriapolis, Casapueblo and Punta del Este. Once everything gets back to normal of course 😁
Diego Siciliani we spent some time in Jose Ignacio and Grazon too...we just uploaded our video from there! But yes, next time, I’d love to check out Colonia and some other spots too 👍🏻
@@TheNearAndAway Probably you can try to visit the hot springs on the northwest side of the country. There are a few between Salto and Paysandu... even one I think in Concordia, on the Argentinean side.

We're back with our South America series...and Uruguay was one of our favorite countries. It seemed like it was under the radar for tourists, but we loved our time there!

The weather can be kind of crummy even in summer, and it's really quite unpredictable, so that's something to keep in mind.
Anyway... Glad you liked it here.

Grilling seems to be a pretty big thing in Uruguay! I'd never seen cone-shaped barbecues like that but that meat just made me hungry: the wizard did work his magic :D
It cldn't b better stek n wine . Thx so much for visit our country u r more than welcome any time u guys decide to b back . Cheers from Toronto
Thanks for watching! We used to live in Toronto! Stay safe!
Wish we could have gone there, just missed it...
Uruguay 🇺🇾🇺🇾❤
hows the weather ? is it hot down there ?
excelente !!
What awesome vids u two make! 😍😍😍 we enjoy every second! We visited a town called Pan de Azúcar and ate there OMG! How can they make cow’s brain a delicatessen??? Going back next year.
Thank you for the kind words! Whoa...cow brains..and you liked them? I generally don’t like the texture of them...but it sounds like you had a great time! I wish we were going back next year!! Hope you guys have a fantastic trip!
The Near & Away You deserve those words, great entertainment! And yes, the brain was grilled, wrapped in aluminum foil and covered with “adobo” (chimichurri), I want more! 😋 (zombie talk). Hope you can go back soon. Also, now (in September) they have La Rural Del Prado, check that out, awesome!
Gracias por visitar nuestro paisito
thank you very much for your nice words about my country, very nice video. I suscribe
I’m so glad you liked the video!
Love the travel videos! Would you consider putting the local prices you paid for the meals?? It would help us plan for when we go to these places. Some places don't list prices on their website or don't have websites at all! Thanks'
great channel, thanks
Hello, like your videos very much. You guys have been to many places, where would you rank Uruguay in your list? Thanks!
Uruguay was one of our favorite places we visited! The people, the food, the wine…everything was so great. When we go back to South America, we would definitely visit again. Argentina was also so great…and Buenos Aires is just a ferry ride away from Montevideo. Hope that helps and thanks for watching of videos!
@@TheNearAndAway Thanks for the reply, I was born in Montevideo, moved to Bs. As. when I was 2 and visited Montevideo every summer, then moved to the US at 12. I was just wondering how much others appreciate the raw beauty or Uruguay, so thanks again for your comments. BTW, your videos really capture the moment, nicely done.
It is strange you find it inexpensive, it is actually pretty expensive compared to many other places
Is expensive for the working class and regular tourist.. for the wealthy is cheap.. that day spend in Uruguay drinking great wines and eating the Best steak in the world probably cost them $500 .. California or Europe and not getting the quality of our meats at all.. $1,500 ,3,000.. so yeah for them is not expensive
Nice video! I am happy you enjoyed your visit!!! Hope u come back!
Thanks for watching!! Can't wait to visit when things get back to normal!
@@TheNearAndAway I loved your video!! 😊 Next time you should visit Colonia, Piriapolis, Casapueblo and Punta del Este. Once everything gets back to normal of course 😁
Diego Siciliani we spent some time in Jose Ignacio and Grazon too...we just uploaded our video from there! But yes, next time, I’d love to check out Colonia and some other spots too 👍🏻
@@TheNearAndAway Probably you can try to visit the hot springs on the northwest side of the country. There are a few between Salto and Paysandu... even one I think in Concordia, on the Argentinean side.
@@lauruguayitausa Great idea for the next time we visit...can't wait to get back!
"Oh man the mountains called my number and won. I’m just a lifesize lottery ticket in the hand of the One. That stress-out freak-out’s gone since we …
Uruguay is the best in the south specially the girls and the place

Is Uruguay open?
so you went to the mecado del peurto and orderer fish? lol
I live near the Carrasco Airport in Uruguay.
Welcome to my country
Thank you for your kind words about Uruguay. Next time, after the pandemic ends, do not miss Carmelo and Colonia del Sacramento.,
Absolutely! We wanted to visit both places...but we just ran out of time before heading to Argentina. Next time though! Thanks for watching! 👍🏻
