Our Experiences:  Punta del Este is a famous resort city in South America. There are good parks, casinos, restaurants and elegant houses. The sea is not beautiful but the city is. We once spent a wonderful new year´s party in Punta.  The capital Montevideo has not good touristic attractions except the marvelous Parrilas (Local style barbecue restaurants). One of the world´s best meats ever.
