Start your scenic, cultural experience with a stroll through Ciudad Viejas, one of Montevideo's most diverse and oldest neighborhoods as you pass by historic cafes, charming bars, art galleries, and some of the best restaurants in the capital.

Take in the Old City's historical attractions like the Rambla, a popular avenue that hugs the coast along the River Plate. Pass by Plaza Independencia and the Congress building, which features a marble interior and ornate architecture.

Continue through Battle Park, which houses the famous La Carreta monument and Centenary Stadium, the site of the first FIFA Cup. Next up you will get to see the beautiful garden-enclosed homes or Quintas and ornate churches of the historical neighborhood of El Prado before making your way to the winery.

Montevideo is known for its centuries-old, family-owned and operated wineries which sometimes span four to five generations. While at the winery experience a personal guided tour that will take you through the wine-making process and taste four delicious wines including the tasty red grape Tannat wine variety.

From exploring Montevideo's oldest neighborhood's attractions to tasty, delicious Tannat wine, this scenic wine and city tour offers much to do and see.
