Where to go when - our guide to Uruguay
November - February
This is the warmest and driest time of the year to visit and is perfect for horse riding, wine tasting and visiting the beach. If you’re heading for the coast, November is a great time to visit as it’s much quieter – in December and January make sure you book ahead. February / March is also carnival meaning plenty of festivities across the country.
