ITINERARY
Oct
27 Buenos Aires, Argentina Depart: 7:00 pm
Few
cities in South America share the ambiance and lifestyle that make
Buenos Aires so endearing. From the Plaza de Mayo to the milongas along
San Telmo’s cobbled streets, Buenos Aires is rife with
historical and cultural sites for the curious mind.
The
cosmopolitan capital of Argentina lies on the western shore of the
Río de la Plata estuary. The combination of modern
skyscrapers and colonial structures blends the country’s past
and present in a way that calls out to the adventurer with a thirst for
knowledge.
In
the Plaza de Mayo you find a dotting of tropical palm trees amid old
streets and buildings. The plaza holds much history as the site of the
city’s foundation in 1580, the backdrop for the revolution of
independence, and the scene of the latest political rallies.
At
the heart of this historical site lies Casa Rosada, the Argentinian
equivalent of the White House, but pink. It’s more than a
novelty sight. It’s a symbol of the executive branch of
government that leads the republic. Casa Rosada is best known as the
location where famous first lady Evita Peron addressed the crowds.
A
trip to Buenos Aires must include a visit to Recoleta Cemetery, the
resting grounds of the powerful, rich, and famous. Stone paths lined
with extravagant grave markers and aboveground tombs make it a
celebration of the legacies that live on long after one is gone. Dive
deep into Argentinian culture by joining an asado, a barbecue. As you
indulge in the rich flavors of Argentinian steak and Malbec, you will
come to understand and appreciate the culture’s finer points.
Oct
28 Montevideo, Uruguay Arrive: 8:00 am Depart: 11:00 pm
Uruguay’s
cool capital city Montevideo calls out with its cobbled streets, wide
avenues, colonial buildings and verdant cityscapes along the
waterfront, known as the rambla. To get social with the locals, share
in their tradition of drinking yerba mate. Everywhere you go in Uruguay
you see people drinking the strong, herbal tea out of cups that look
like gourds, sipping through a long, thick straw. For the full color
and vibrant life of the city, head to Mercado del Puerto, where you
find a 19th-century restored building housing various stalls and
eateries. About an hour drive outside the city explore the newest
UNESCO World Heritage Site Church of Atlántida.
Oct
29 Punta del Este, Uruguay Arrive: 7:00 am Depart: 6:00 pm
Punta
del Este holds some of the finest beaches on the coast that call to you
to play, sunbathe, or splash in the azure Atlantic Ocean. Playa Brava
and Playa Mansa, “wild beach” and “tame
beach,” respectively, perfectly depict the natural diversity
along Uruguay’s coast. From rowdy waves to calm waters,
it’s up to you to choose what kind of adventure you will have.
With
a rich, cosmopolitan look and feel, Punta del Este has been compared to
the likes of Cannes and Miami for its lively energy. Skyscrapers line
the sandy shores of beaches, inviting travelers to explore the
city’s modern treasures.
Among
the contemporary architecture lie relics like Casapueblo, a structure
that once stood as an art workshop turned museum but now acts as a
boutique hotel. It’s the perfect example of how Uruguay
incorporates its past into its present.
No
one can resist the urge to capture an epic selfie with “La
Mano,” the gigantic sculpted hand reaching out of the golden
sands at Playa Brava. The sculpted fingers reaching toward blue skies
give the impression of a sleeping giant ready and waiting to wake up
and live life. Snap a photo at sunset for a positively beautiful shot
that cannot compare.
Uruguay’s
reputation for the art of cooking meat makes it a top choice for foodie
travelers, and Punta del Este is no different. It’s seaside
location also makes it a number one pick for fresh seafood meals that
will leave explorers hungry for more. A rich mix of flavors in the
city’s local fare makes it an adventure for the taste buds as
well.
