Absolutely unforgettable—this 12-day wine and food journey through Uruguay was pure magic from start to finish. Every detail was flawlessly curated, and the experience exceeded expectations at every turn. The wineries, meals, and regional discoveries were exceptional, offering a perfect balance of indulgence, culture, and authentic local flavor. A huge part of what made this trip so special were the incredible hosts: Veronica, Claire, and Uli. Their warmth, knowledge, and genuine passion for Uruguay and the wines shone through every day. Veronica opened doors to experiences., Uli brought local knowledge, and Claire brought the Oenology expertise. They were a dream team for hosts who made everyone feel welcomed, cared for, and completely at ease, while sharing deep insights and delightful surprises that elevated the entire experience. All accommodations were outstanding—beautiful, comfortable, and perfectly located—and every aspect of travel was seamless and stress-free. From boutique hotels to smooth transfers, it was clear that quality and comfort were top priorities. This trip was not just a vacation, but a truly immersive and joyful experience. If you love wine, food, and traveling in great company with exceptional hosts, this journey through Uruguay is an absolute dream. Highly, highly recommended. 🍷✨

This trip far exceeded my expectations. The experiences were all very elevated. Each time I thought one was my favorite, we did something else that was even better! It was my first time to Uruguay and I did not know what to expect. This trip was more than I thought it would be. The food and wine experiences were amazing and the people of Uruguay were so welcoming. It really was one of my favorite trips ever and I have traveled quite a bit. I look forward to my next trip with Explore Oeno and I am so glad they had the vision of this amazing trip that I probably would not have gone on on my own!

We had a fantastic time! Loved all the venues and hotels we visited. We especially liked the small group of 20 we traveled with. Can’t wait for our next trip with these guys! Ciao!

We had a great time. Doug and Erica were great. Lots of scenery and good wine.

Every detail was taken care of by Doug, Erica and Claire. The hotels were all very nice and the transportation was good We had planned activities, but also free time which was nice.
