The bucket-list things to do — and the private, expert-led way to do each.
Here’s the bucket list for your day ashore: the most extraordinary thing to do at each stop, and the private, small-group, or expert-led way to make it yours — your own pace, real access, none of the crowd.
Step inside Montevideo's legendary iron-and-glass market for a private guided experience culminating in a tableside asado feast — Uruguay's greatest culinary ritual. This is bucket-list South American dining, done properly.
Ascend the iconic Palacio Salvo — once the tallest building in South America — for a guided tour through its Art Deco interiors and a breathtaking panorama across Montevideo and the Río de la Plata. An unmissable icon of the city.
Journey to Uruguay's most celebrated winery — Bodega Juanicó, founded in 1830 — for an exclusive private tour through colonial cellars, a barrel-room tasting, and a premium lunch pairing showcasing the world-class Tannat grape. A wine lover's bucket-list afternoon.
Explore Montevideo's stunning Old City with a private expert guide — colonial plazas, Art Deco facades, hidden courtyards — culminating in a behind-the-scenes tour of the magnificent Teatro Solís, South America's oldest active opera house.
Glide along Montevideo's magnificent 22 km Rambla — one of the world's great urban waterfronts — on a private guided cycling journey from the Old City to Pocitos Beach, taking in the full sweep of the Río de la Plata at its most luminous.
Dive deep into Montevideo's greatest cultural secret — its UNESCO-recognised Carnival and Afro-Uruguayan Candombe tradition — with a private museum visit and a live drum circle immersion in the historic Barrio Sur. Utterly unique and completely unforgettable.
