Essential South America

Set out on a full-day excursion to Uruguay and add one more country to your tour experience! Take an early morning ferry across the Rio de Plata from Buenos Aires to Colonia del Sacramento, one of the oldest towns in Uruguay, founded by the Portuguese in 1680. Upon arrival, set out into the countryside to visit a family-owned dairy farm where you’ll enjoy a tour and farm-to-table lunch featuring delicious cheeses. Then, return to Colonia del Sacramento to explore the city’s Historic Quarter with cobblestone streets and buildings dating back centuries with a fusion of Portuguese, Spanish and post-colonial styles. Enjoy free time to explore and shop as you like, and later, take the ferry back to Buenos Aries.

Make it a night to remember in Buenos Aires when you join for a riveting evening of tango and folklore accompanied by a three-course gourmet dinner. Take your seat at the table inside a beautiful venue as artists take the stage to perform tango music and dance and folk traditions, and indulge in delicious Argentinean flavors.

You can now include pre-paid tipping into your guided tour purchase. You pay for your tipping up front, we handle the rest, and you can cross one more thing off your “To Do” list. No more running to an ATM at the last minute on tour or carrying around cash you won’t spend.
