Bodega Garzón with Wine Explorers - a must!
We are so appreciative of the Wine Explorers Team, including Veronica and Emilia for organizing our fantastic trip to Bodega Garzón. Our driver was on-time, professional and friendly. The car was comfortable. The tour at Garzón was the perfect choice (as suggested with Veronica) and the subsequent 4-course lunch outstanding. We are very glad we trusted Wine Explorers with all the details and organization. Everything was perfect and with no worries. This is a "must" trip to complete when you visit Uruguay. We live here now, and would not mind doing it again! Thank you!
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for continuing to choose us. It is always a pleasure to organize experiences for you. We love seeing you enjoy our wines and wineries, and we hope to keep exploring many more together. Cheers, and see you soon! Verónica

Amazing Bodega Las Espinas
Outstanding from start to finish! Veronica and her team at Wine Explorers took care of every detail. We were picked up in Montevideo and traveled to Punta Negra, to visit Las Espinas winery, a Bouza project. The tour was informative and very friendly. Then the tasting at the restaurant and 4 course lunch was amazing… Fabulous wines and descriptions and phenomenal gastronomy. This was a perfect trip and individual (3 people) experience that we very highly recommend. Certainly, book any Uruguay wine trip with Wine Explorers.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your review! It is always a pleasure to organize experiences for you :) We love seeing you enjoy our wines and wineries, and we hope to keep exploring many more together. Cheers! Verónica

Very Informative Tour
We had a great time and Silvina was very friendly, informative and friendly. The two wineries were a good pairing. We had the owner/manager (son) at Carrau give our tasting and we enjoyed his history of the family. The Pizzano winery was a good lunch choice and the people were friendly yet it was less personal. Also, we were at the very end of the crush seadon, so we got to see that aspect. Unless you see the crush or the bottling line, there is not always much activity in a winery. We have never been at one where we had access to the vineyards when there was much activity there, so I can’t comment on how that would look. Our interest is usually on how the winery runs as a business, so meeting the owner/manager was great.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your review! We are truly delighted to know that you enjoyed the experiences, and we hope to welcome you back to Uruguay again to continue exploring our wines and wineries together :) Cheers! Verónica

Great tour!
This was a wonderful tour of two wineries - Pizzorno and Spinoglio. It was especially nice because we were there doing harvest and it was fun to see their actual process happening before our eyes. The tour and tasting at Pizzorno was more formal and Spinoglio included a tasting with full lunch. Both of the wineries have beautiful grounds. Veronica was very efficient and informative. Our driver, Mateo, was always in touch and he was right on time and we never felt rushed. Highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your recommendation. We’re truly happy to hear that you enjoyed the two experiences we arranged for you. Thank you for choosing us! we’re always at your disposal whenever you’d like to continue exploring the wineries of Uruguay. Cheers! Verónica

Fantastic Experience with Wine Explorers
We highly recommend Wine Explorers. Veronica went above and beyond to help us when our flight was cancelled, causing us to arrive two days late. She helped us get everything sorted and rescheduled. The wine tours she arranged made for a fantastic day capped off by a great dinner at a local restaurant (La Otra) that she recommended and booked for us. Everything about our experience with Veronica and the team at Wine Explorers was fantastic.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your lovely review! We are so glad you have enjoyed it and hope to receive you on another visit to Uruguay. Best wishes and salud!! Verónica

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Wine Tours by Wine Explorers Uruguay: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Montevideo.
How much does Private Wine Tours by Wine Explorers Uruguay cost?
+
Prices start at $205 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Montevideo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Wine Tours by Wine Explorers Uruguay take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Montevideo is not rushed.
Is Private Wine Tours by Wine Explorers Uruguay worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 13 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Montevideo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Wine Tours by Wine Explorers Uruguay?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Wine Tours by Wine Explorers Uruguay suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Wine Tours by Wine Explorers Uruguay?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Montevideo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Montevideo and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Wine Tours by Wine Explorers Uruguay start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Montevideo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Montevideo?
+
On Outty we rank every Montevideo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Museo Andes 1972 / Crash Memorial Admission Ticket, Full Day Punta del Este, Montevideo Electric Bicycle Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Montevideo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Montevideo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
