General Shopping
  • Tip Rating:

  • Montevideo is not the best place for Shopping. Besides some typical stuff you won't find anything you wouldn't find in other cities, prices of things related to electronics are much more expensive than those in the USA or Europe. You can find though some good prices in well-known clothes brands (such as Lacoste, Levis, etc) at the local malls.
    You should also visit "Manos Del Uruguay" at the Punta Carretas Shopping Center where the finest wool made clother of all Uruguay are at great prices.

    What To Buy: Leather clothes and wool clothes

    Tamboriles
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]

  • Like I wrote on my local customs tips, camdombe was invented in Uruguay and is also very popular. If you happen to like it and wanna buy a tamboril, go to Av. Rivera 4743 and buy it to Adrian Icasuriaga, he is my cousin and he wil give you a free lesson if you but a tamboril to him.
