About This Tour

A private 3-hour city tour followed by an authentic Uruguayan asado in a typical home setting — light the fire, grill alongside your host, and finish with panqueques con dulce de leche and Uruguayan wine. Adapted from a bilingual host's own home-based asado experience — Voyzo runs this as a private tour, with your own guide for the city portion and just one group hosted per day for the asado itself, no strangers joining.

Asado is the heart of Uruguayan home life: beef cooked slowly over wood embers on a parrilla, a tradition tied to the cattle culture of the Pampas and the gauchos who cooked on iron crosses. Uruguay has far more cattle than people, and per-person beef consumption is among the highest in the world.

Cuts vary but often include short ribs, skirt steak and flank, cooked for hours rather than minutes. A host who lights the fire with you will usually explain that the pace is part of the point.

Panqueques con dulce de leche, thin pancakes filled with the caramelized milk spread, are a classic way to finish; both Uruguay and Argentina lay claim to the national obsession with dulce de leche. Uruguayan wine often means Tannat, a grape brought by Basque immigrant Pascual Harriague in the 1870s and now the country's signature variety.
