Montevideo and winery
Miguel was very knowledgeable and friendly. Made the ride out to the winery go by very quickly. Everyone at Santa Rosa winery wonderful, showed a lot of pride in their history and wine. The lunch ended the trip on a super high note. On the ride back Miguel gave us a bit of extra, showing us sites in beautiful Montevideo. He even helped my friend find a place to shop for gifts.

Uruguay wine tour
Right after I booked the tour, Ryan was in touch with me to assure me that we were all set. Our driver Miguel picked us up at our hotel and he entertained us with lots of great stories and information on our way to the winery. The winery tour itself was a lot of fun and the wine was delicious, as was lunch! And I really appreciated that even after the tour, both Ryan and Miguel were checking in with me with suggestions for the rest of our stay in Uruguay. Made us feel very supported and as if they truly cared about our experience. Highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thank you, Deb, for your lovely feedback and comments! We are stoked you had a super time! Note that we offer wine tours worldwide, so please keep in touch. Follow us on Instagram: thewine.experience or uruguay.concierge

Great Day in Montevideo
Miguel picked our group up from the port right on time and took us to the Santa Rosa Winery where we toured the facilities and had a wonderful steak lunch. He was so informative and made the day so much fun. He gave us a lot of fun facts and answered all our questions. I highly recommend not only The Wine Destination, but also San Rosa. It was a great day. thank you to Ryan for putting this together for us.

Wine Lovers - Revel in a Countryside Lunch with tasty wines!: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Montevideo.
How much does Wine Lovers - Revel in a Countryside Lunch with tasty wines! cost?
+
Prices start at $225 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 Wine Lovers - Revel in a Countryside Lunch with tasty wines! 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 Wine Lovers - Revel in a Countryside Lunch with tasty wines! worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 69 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable food & drink in Montevideo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Wine Lovers - Revel in a Countryside Lunch with tasty wines!?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Wine Lovers - Revel in a Countryside Lunch with tasty wines! 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 Wine Lovers - Revel in a Countryside Lunch with tasty wines!?
+
Around 24 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 Wine Lovers - Revel in a Countryside Lunch with tasty wines! 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.
