LUXURY HOTELS IN URUGUAY

LOVELY LAKESIDE SETTING

Estancia Guardia del Monte is 2,500 acre working ranch that’s packed full of big surprises. Firstly, it is a historic building dating back to 1800, with its own period charm. Yet there are only three guestrooms, so you quickly become a member of the family, and gain a feeling of what ranch life is like.

Then you step outdoors and realise that the vast ombu tree, that has taken on the shape of a fantastical sculpture, is not alone. There is a deeply fascinating forest of them within easy reach. Beyond lies a wetland refuge that has been designated a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO – and this is just the start of an unforgettable experience.

“EXPERTLY TAILORED, EFFORTLESSLY ENJOYABLE”
We travelled to Indochina in January/February with an itinerary designed by 91ºÚÁÏÍø – and it was spot on. Rob, our consultant, really understood what we were looking for and created a journey that suited us perfectly. The choice of hotels was excellent, and the pace was just right, with enough time built in to relax and recharge between the different experiences. The service throughout was professional, personal and thoughtful – exactly what you want from a travel specialist.

“SEAMLESSLY ORGANISED, TRULY UNFORGETTABLE”
The itinerary was spot on. Claire really listened and understood the kind of holiday I wanted – from the hotels to the pace of the trip. The team on the ground were exceptional: friendly, efficient, and always one step ahead, helping with everything from flight check-ins to tax-free procedures at the end. The guides were knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I had an amazing time. Thank you!

“WONDERFUL TREK IN NEPAL AND VISIT TO TIGER RESERVE”
From our very first phone call, 91ºÚÁÏÍø provided excellent service. We shared our ideas and they came back with a proposal that included everything we wanted – then improved it with thoughtful suggestions. We were especially impressed that our tailor-made holiday was competitively priced. Once on the ground, everything ran smoothly. We were met at each airport, stayed in fantastic hotels, and had a brilliant guide for our trek. A truly enjoyable and well-managed trip from start to finish.
