Uruguay: Montevideo, Paysandú and Salto + 1 more

A road trip through Montevideo, Paysandú and Salto + 1 more, 4 stops in Uruguay.

2 million. Paysandú is a city of around 81,550 people in the Paysandú Department of Uruguay, holding UNESCO World Heritage status. Salto is a UNESCO World Heritage city in the north of Uruguay, straddling the Río Uruguay which forms the border with a neighbouring country. Rivera is a border city in northern Uruguay, sitting on the frontier with Brazil and forming a binational urban area with the Brazilian town of Sant'Ana do Livramento.

Why it works

Rather than one city, this threads Montevideo, Paysandú and Salto and more into a single trip, so you see more of Uruguay in one go. Spend longest wherever suits you.
