In less than a month the classes go on hiatus and the holidays are activated. For secondary and Vocational Technical Education (UTU) the winter holidays will run from Monday 10 to Friday 21 July, the same happens with most private institutes while in initial and primary education the break will be shorter, and will last a week, from Monday 17 to Friday 21.

Within this framework, Uruguayans are preparing to enjoy the winter holidays and, in parallel, national destinations are preparing for the arrival of visitors, such as rural destinations, where you can find proposals from $1,000 per person, such as For example, the Mining Safari, in Artigas.

Lucila Providente, president of the Uruguayan Society of Rural and Natural Tourism, commented to Coffee & Business that tour operators are well aware of the “extra-region” situation and the attractiveness that Argentina offers for lower costs, but that “there are always tourists who stay and want to take advantage of their country to travel.”

In this sense, he stressed that there are various proposals for national tourism such as the gold route or the sugar cane walk, in the north; horseback riding in the south or east and visits to farms or cheese factories in the west.

Although there are those who continue with the line of low temperatures and seek to vacation in the cold, there are those who, on the other hand, prefer to shorten the winter by visiting a beach destination, and in this sense, Brazil is one of the most demanded places, he explained. .

The Caribbean is also one of the most sought after points abroad, commented Analía de Castro, Product Manager at Jetmar Viajes.

Brazilian destinations such as Buzios or Salvador de Bahía can be visited from US$890 and US$1,300 (the latter by charter flight); and others, Caribbean, such as Havana and Varadero, from US$1,400 per person.

Uruguayans continue to choose the classics, which are the Caribbean and the United States (on an international level), and the regional ones that are Argentina and Brazil”, he commented and explained that among the most outstanding beach destinations are Salvador de Bahía, Playa del Cármen, Tulum, Pumta Cana, Bayahibe and Havana.

Another point in the region that is highly visited by Uruguayans at this time is the Iguazú Falls, where you can travel from US$430.

In that agency, in which almost all the packages offered have been sold, as reported, there are still some travel options, such as Argentine or American destinations, such as Miami, where you can travel from US$ 1,800 per person with eight nights of accommodation included.

holiday with celebrities

Another of the popular international destinations for these vacations is Orlando, Florida, in the United States, specifically to visit the Disney parks. This is a very popular destination among the fifteen-year-old public, which can be hired from US$ 1,600 per person in family plans.

Tourism companies specialized in trips for adolescents, such as fifteen-year-olds or graduates, have this destination, as well as Bariloche, among their top places for these dates.
