Cheap Flights to Uruguay | Cheap Flights Finder

Urugay, one of the safest and friendliest of the South American countries, is often overlooked in favour of its better marketed neighbours Argentina and Brazil.

This is a boon for those who like to venture a little further than the offerings of the standard holiday package. These are the folk who are able to enjoy the warm nights of Colonia del Sacramento, redolent with the scent of jasmine, as they wander the cobblestone streets in safety and sample the local fare, music and culture.

These are also the folk who enjoy the spectacular beaches in relative privacy (until they get to the bustling resort town of Punta Del Este that it – this place is known for crowds, parties and fun).

Like most other South American countries, Uruguay was colonised by the Spanish, but thanks to its lack of natural resources like gold, managed to avoid the war and turmoil that was a result of the scramble for these riches. Instead, Uruguay is largely a farming nation, as the Spanish introduced beef to the country and now they export beef all over the world and offer locals some of the tastiest and least expensive steaks around.

The Uruguayan economy has, unlike some of is neighbours, remained stable over the years. The government is committed to social welfare (all education, including college, is free in Uruguay) and the result is a relatively low unemployment rate and very little crime.
