The tiny country of Uruguay lies sandwiched between its two giant neighbours, Argentina and Brazil. Two of its chief attractions lie a couple of hours by ferry across the River Plate, and so make a fascinating excursion from Buenos Aires. Take a step back in time to the sleepy town of Colonia del Sacramento which has a UNESCO protected colonial heart. It is a place of cobbled streets, picture-perfect Spanish and Portuguese houses, art galleries and cafes, lapped on three sides by the brown waters of the River Plate. Montevideo, the capital of the country, is an intriguing place that moves at a far slower pace than Buenos Aires, it has a handsome centre dotted with plazas, and some wonderful restaurants. Uruguay’s trendiest beach resort is the famous Punta del Este, where the beautiful people go to show-off, 24 hours a day.
