Private one-day visit to 2 Wineries in Carmelo
For 9 years, we have toured wineries throughout Uruguay, which has allowed us to generate very strong ties with the owners of Uruguayan wineries. This gives us the possibility and the privilege of offering personalized tours where quality is paramount. In addition, our Wine Tourism agency has been declared of interest by the INAVI (National Institute of Viticulture) thanks to our work and first-class service that our clients guarantee. Carmelo is considered a small wine tourism gem of our country, with a set of wineries that are very different from each other. For this particular itinerary we have chosen two wineries, prioritizing the family style, where visitors will be served by the owners of the establishments themselves, since we believe that this experience is something completely unusual in other parts of the world.
