Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

The Rambla runs alongside the shore of the River Plate and makes for a pleasant place for a stroll if you want to get away from the city useless. We were staying in Pocitos and it was nice to wander along the Rambla in the evening watching all the beach activity - volleyball, football etc. Sadly there are few bars or restaurants along the way and you need to head inland if you’re looking for refreshment.

Rambla de Montevideo is the beachside esplanade which is over 10 km long. From the city there is a busy road to cross and no designated pedestrian crossings, but along the shoreline is a wide path for walking and cycling. Access to beaches and views of sculptures as well as out to sea.

The Rambla is probably the best known thing to do in Montevideo; when I talked to a friend who'd visited the city in the past, he claimed it was the only thing he enjoyed about it. We found other things to also spend time on during our visit, but we did set aside a couple hours for a leisurely stroll along the Ramblas. We started our walk after taking some photos at the Montevideo sign, near Playa Pocitos, and then walked south from there. It was nice sunny weather and a good opportunity to stretch our legs, see the river and the city, and watch lots of people who were out enjoying the day.

The beautifully landscaped Rambla along Montevideo's beaches and coastline elevates the city into the international elite of capitals.
What the city and country may lack in obvious tourist attractions, the Rambla more than makes up for.
We loved strolling for kilometers along the wide path and watching runners, cyclists, skaters, and other athletes of all ages enjoying themselves without bothering anyone else.
On the beaches, the beautiful white sand was starting to fill up with towels and lounge chairs - on the water, small boats with white sails sailed around - and we high-fived each other for having stopped by Montevideo on our way around the world.

Walked from Montevideo old town to pocitos along the Rambla Perú ( beach side road). The walk is about 8 kms and whilst enjoyable didn’t offer any amazing views.
The beach was covered with dead fish and water a chocolatey brown 🤨.
Not specific to this walk but found everything so expensive - coffee $10, water 500 mls bottle - $6-7.
The food ( with exception of Mercado del Puerto for bbq) was very overpriced and lower quality.
A chemist item that costs $4 for 30 ml in Australia was $30 for 10 ml here.
Also be wary of the cost to sit in restaurant that is in addition to food and tip.

The Rambla is iconic, and so wonderful to visit on many different days for different reasons. My personal favorite part of it is the stretch near the port, but each part of the Rambla has its charm. Take an early morning walk or jog, and watch the ships come in and the fisherman start their day. Go for an early evening stroll and watch one of Uruguay's famous sunsets. Be like a local and grab a folding chair and go sit there to drink mate, watch the waves or read. The Rambla is one of the best parts of the city.

I have lived more than 3 years in Montevideo now and the most amazing thing here is the Rambla that extends from the centre of Montevideo all the way out to the airport in Carasco and beyond practically all the way to the border with Brazil 320 km away.
I make it a habit to go for a walk along the Rambla every day after work and with me are hundreds of Montevideanos. Come out here and do the same!

Lovely space I walked almost daily! Very safe. Not treaterous walking like parts of town can be. From Old town to beach and park Rodo was fabulous. Many people biking, jogging having Mate and families~ Would be nice to see restaurants with the amazing views somewhere along the water between.

To be honest we didn’t get the best impression of this city. For sure the Rambla was one of the nicest parts. It is a broad road running along the coast and there are a few nice open spaces and some high end apartments. However, we visited just as the place was going into lockdown and didn’t really feel we saw the best parts, such a pity.

We were on a day tour of Montevideo, and stopped here at several places to enjoy the water side views. There were lots of different types of boats in the water, sailboats, etc. There are shops and restaurants along this walkway, which is pretty extensive.

I am not able to find the Rio de la plato boardwalk on the map, I am coming on a cruise ship, is it easy to get to, would like to know your opinion. would love to find sea glass while I am in the port
Written 19 September 2018
La Rambla runs from immediately outside the port and stretches for miles. I'm not sure about sea glass but there are lots of entry points onto the shore and beaches that you explore. Happy travels :-)

Vi que muitos falam em alugar bicicleta para conhecer a Rambla. Exiatem pontos de aluguel la? Aonde posso alugar?
Written 16 August 2018
Tem um mapa que dão na estação do turismo. Lá consta onde alugar as bicicletas.

Pode fazer algo muito diferente das pessoas que moram em SP, pode andar pelas ruas da cidade a noite depreocupada. Montevideu tem bons restaurantes para jantar. Tem o Fun Fun, casa noturna muuuuito antiga que vale uma ida para ver um show de tango.
