South America

Uruguay tends to sit quietly in the shadow of its bigger, louder neighbours, which is exactly why it’s so good. Experience Montevideo mornings filled with café-lined streets, slow seaside strolls, and enough art deco charm to make you wonder why more people aren’t talking about it already. Then swing into Punta del Este for beaches, nightlife, and that “Monaco of South America” energy without the attitude. Between tango roots, seriously good beef, and a national obsession with yerba mate, this is a country that runs on flavour and rhythm in equal measure. You’ll find the latest articles, insider tips, and Flights that help you get there before everyone else realises what they’re missing.

Chile is basically nature’s way of showing off, squeezed into an impossibly skinny strip of land that refuses to settle for just one vibe. It’s the kind of place where you can spend your morning gasping at the jagged, snow-capped Andes, only to find yourself a few hours later leaning back in a sun-drenched wine valley near Santiago, debating if a second glass of Carménère counts as "cultural research." If the mainland’s mix of alpine peaks and lush vineyards isn't enough of a flex, there’s always the remote, wind-swept mystery of Easter Island. We’re here to help you supercharge your travel experience with insider tips, curated Flights, and everything you need to know to explore Chile’s stunning mountain scenery and vibrant culture for less.

Beyond the iconic, pastel-perfect Dutch Colonial architecture of Willemstad—the island's iconic capital—you’ll find hidden coves with water so blue it honestly looks a bit photoshopped. Plus a local scene that doesn’t take itself too seriously; there’s even a “Williwood” sign if you’re looking for a laugh. Whether you’re here to snorkel through crystal-clear reefs or just soak up that laid-back island rhythm, this is a destination that stays with you long after the tan fades.

Hi Jack &amp; Co!

I live in Bristol and loathe travelling to the London airports. In the Black Friday sale I saw the Air Lingus ticket from Bristol to Chicago. It was dirt cheap so I booked! I’ll be staying with some friends there before continuing my trip to Guatemala for a wedding. Thanks a bunch, I would have never come across the Air Lingus routes from Bristol airport if it wasn’t for you. 

Thanks again and Merry Christmas!

Greetings from Romania, Travellers!
Navigator Fran and I may be a week early for&nbsp;<a href="https://madisonsfootsteps.com/halloween-party-draculas-castle/">Vlad's annual outing</a>, but our brief foray across Transylvania has proven that there are plenty of reasons to hang around, even when the strings of garlic are optional.
The most obvious one, in my eyes, has to be the fiery Carpathian forests. We've spent a lot of time on trains and buses this week, but with these views, even 8+ hours on a Flixbus seems kinda reasonable.
<img src="https://cdn.jacksflightclub.com/id/2eb78fbadba590a66c4f5b1ba18ae1d3d9ebfcdd" width="416" height="234" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;">
The city of <a href="https://www.mywanderlust.pl/things-to-do-in-brasov-romania/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Brașov</a> was our home last night. It's the typical base for exploring <a href="https://www.itsalltriptome.com/romanian-castles-transylvania/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Transylvania's castles and palaces</a>, as well as a lovely spot in its own right &mdash; think medieval town walls, colourful lanes with cosy coffee shops, and a mountain viewpoint furnished with a Hollywood-style sign.
Our tracks took us onwards to Bucharest today, where we <a href="https://thenomadicflower.com/taking-the-friendship-train-bucharest-to-chisinau-by-night-train-2025-guide/">boarded the&nbsp;Prietania</a> to Chișinău, Moldova. But rest assured, I'm already planning a proper return. Give me a hand by dropping <a href="https://members.jacksflightclub.com/articles/detour-209-montreal-munching-and-south-american-roots#comments">your Transylvanian tips in the comments</a>.&nbsp;

Travel Tips

<h3>Plateau Mont-Royal (the Plateau)</h3>
Located to the northeast of downtown Montreal, the neighborhood is renowned for its distinctive Victorian architecture, packed with colorful, narrow, two or three-story buildings with wrought-iron staircases and balconies. Head to Square Saint-Louis to see some of the oldest and prettiest examples of this style.
The two main boulevards are Saint-Laurent Street and Saint-Denis Street:
<ul>
<li>Saint-Laurent (or &ldquo;The Main&rdquo;)&mdash;a major commercial artery filled with shops, restaurants, and nightlife spots. It is also known for its street art and murals.</li>
</ul>

Grab brunch at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/patatimontreal/?hl=en">Patati Patata</a>, do a little shopping at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/evabvintage/?hl=en">Eva B</a>, and finish with drinks at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bar.darling/?hl=en">Le Bar Darling</a>.

Spotlight on: Saint-Laurent

<ul>
<li>Saint-Denis Street&mdash;famous for its European ambiance, featuring a wide variety of boutiques, bistros, and theaters.</li>
</ul>
Accommodation: In the Plateau, you can expect a mix of low-key hotels, a couple of hostels, and plenty of unique Airbnbs.

<h3>Mile End</h3>
Right next to the Plateau, this historical working-class neighborhood has transformed over the decades into a bohemian hub for artists, musicians, and young families. The area is well-known for its <a href="https://everythingzoomer.com/travelhub/2018/04/20/montreal-cafes/">caf&eacute; culture</a>, with numerous literary caf&eacute;s and <a href="https://tastet.ca/en/reviews/boulangerie-guillaume-a-superb-bakery-on-boulevard-st-laurent/">bakeries</a>. Here are the three most important streets in the area:
<ul>
<li>Laurier West Street&mdash;connects the neighborhoods of Outremont and the Mile End. It&rsquo;s the place to be if you&rsquo;re interested in shopping from local designers and small boutiques, or if you&rsquo;re looking for a trendy restaurant for brunch.</li>
</ul>

When you finish shopping at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ecoledepensee/?hl=en">&Eacute;cole de Pens&eacute;e</a>, grab Montreal's best brunch at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/larrys.gram/?hl=en">Larrys</a>.

Spotlight on: Laurier West

<ul>
<li>Fairmount Avenue &amp; Saint-Viateur Street&mdash;aka <a href="https://www.mtl.org/en/experience/the-famous-montreal-bagel">Bagel-land</a>. Besides the puffy, sesame-y deliciousness of their famous bagels, both streets are well known for a variety of caf&eacute;s, bakeries, and second-hand/boutique shops.</li>
</ul>

Snack at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/fairmountbagel/?hl=en">Fairmount Bagels</a> or at <a href="https://www.instagram.com/stviateurbagel/?hl=en">Saint-Viateur</a>&mdash;be careful <a href="https://www.seriouseats.com/what-are-montreal-bagels-the-best-fairmount-vs-st-viateur-rivalry-canada">which one</a> you choose, though&hellip;

Spotlight on: Montreal bagels

Accommodation: Around Mile End, you&rsquo;ll mostly find artsy design hotels and lots of Airbnbs.
<h3>Downtown</h3>
The neighborhood revolves around the <a href="http://placedesarts.com/index.en.html">Place des Arts</a> cultural complex, home to the Montreal Opera and Symphony Orchestra, as well as the Grands Ballets Canadiens. Plenty of festivals are also held in the area, such as the <a href="http://www.montrealjazzfest.com/default-en.aspx">Montreal Jazz Festival</a> and <a href="http://www.justforlaughs.com/">Just For Laughs</a> comedy fest.
You&rsquo;ll see all the city&rsquo;s biggest cultural institutions here: Montreal&rsquo;s central library, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and the National Theatre School of Canada, right next to the main commercial area on <a href="https://www.mtl.org/en/what-to-do/shopping/sainte-catherine-street">Saint Catherine Street</a>.
Accommodation: Downtown features a solid mix of high-end, business-type hotels, basic Airbnbs, and some hostels.

Pro tip:&nbsp;Downtown is predominantly anglophone, though a significant proportion of residents are bilingual.

This historic neighborhood located along the St. Lawrence River is one of the city's most popular destinations, thanks to the historic buildings, waterfront views, cobblestone alleys, and sites like the Notre-Dame Basilica.&nbsp;It&rsquo;s a little bit touristy, and it can get crowded, but the streets are gorgeous, and there are a bunch of top-notch art museums there. Plus, you can pop in and out of all the cute shops selling Qu&eacute;bec-made products. We recommend leaving your car at the hotel for this one, though, since parking is impossible and the area is well-connected to the metro.

Pro tip:&nbsp;If you don&rsquo;t feel like having food in the Vieux Port&rsquo;s pricey alleys, <a href="https://www.mtl.org/en/experience/discover-neighbourhood-montreal-chinatown">Montreal&rsquo;s Chinatown</a> is just a couple of steps (and a paifang gate) away&mdash;it's considered one of the best in North America!

Accommodation: The Vieux Port mostly has luxury boutique hotels.

<h2>Food in Montreal</h2>
<h3>Traditional Food</h3>
Central Canada&rsquo;s cuisine (Quebec and Ontario) has a unique mix of First Nations traditions, as well as French and British colonial influences. And, like any major city, Montreal is chock-full of great restaurants from all over the world, especially Lebanese, Vietnamese, and Italian food.
Qu&eacute;bec cuisine is known for French dishes like <a href="https://www.foodnetwork.ca/article/the-meaty-history-of-quebecois-tourtiere/">tourti&egrave;re</a> (meat pie), ragout de pattes (pork stew), and pea soup.

But ask a Qu&eacute;b&eacute;cois about the most iconic Qu&eacute;bec dish, and they will tell you: poutine. Made of French fries topped with cheese curds and gravy, you&rsquo;ll find variations with additional toppings like pulled pork, bacon, or foie gras. You can get poutine just about anywhere in the city, but our favorite spot is <a href="https://becomingtia.com/patati-patata/">Patati Patata</a>.&nbsp;
Speaking of sweets, get ready for plenty of maple syrup&mdash;a quintessential Canadian (and Qu&eacute;b&eacute;coise) staple&mdash;in desserts like tarte au sucre (maple pie) and pouding ch&ocirc;meur, but also in candies and as a topping for pancakes and waffles. It&rsquo;s a key ingredient in savory foods as well, such as caramelized onions, bacon, or even beans (it&rsquo;s called f&egrave;ves au lard&mdash;<a href="https://www.thekitchn.com/guest-post-from-4-88245">look it up</a>!).
<h3>Montreal Smoked Meat</h3>
A culinary tradition with roots in the city's Jewish immigrant community, Montreal&rsquo;s answer to pastrami features cured and smoked brisket that's thinly sliced and piled high on rye bread and topped with yellow mustard.&nbsp;
One of the most famous places is Schwartz's Deli, founded in 1928 and located on Saint-Laurent Street, but there are also some <a href="https://cultmtl.com/2024/05/best-smoked-meat-in-montreal-best-of-mtl-schwartzs-smoke-meat-pete-dunns-famous-snowdon-deli-lesters-deli/">great options</a> all around the Mile End neighborhood (the city&rsquo;s Jewish quarter).

Tracing Roots across South America

Recently, we asked you well-traveled folks for tips on making Jack's Flight Club Traveler Liz&rsquo;s 50th birthday <a href="https://members.jacksflightclub.com/articles/detour-207-ligurian-lounging-latin-america#:~:text=plans%20for%20a-,big%20birthday%20trip,-%2C%20and%20asking%20for">South America tour</a> unforgettable. And thanks to everyone who contributed, because our community Facebook group and inbox lit up!
Liz is planning to cover an unbelievable (some might say a CRAZY) amount of ground over the space of one month. She&rsquo;ll be tracing family roots across the continent, from landing in Lima and doing Machu Picchu, to celebrating her birthday in Montevideo, where her grandmother Gladys was born.
But like any curious traveler on a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, Liz was keen to make sure she didn&rsquo;t miss out on anything along the way. 
Here are your top tips:
<h3>Uruguay</h3>

&ldquo;In Montevideo we went to the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tripadvisor.com/AttractionProductReview-g294323-d15766778-Museo_Andes_1972_Crash_Memorial_Admission_Ticket-Montevideo_Montevideo_Department.html">Andes museum</a> and the <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.ie/Attraction_Review-g294323-d1572959-Reviews-Museo_del_Carnaval-Montevideo_Montevideo_Department.html">Carnival museum</a> down near the port. If you&rsquo;re in the Carrasco area, there are <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.ie/Restaurants-g294323-zfn21002103-Montevideo_Montevideo_Department.html">lots of nice restaurants</a>. Day trip to Punta del Este or Casapueblo.&rdquo; &mdash; Yvette&nbsp;
<hr>
&ldquo;Instead of ferrying straight to Buenos Aires, go first to <a href="https://discoveroverthere.com/things-to-do-colonia-del-sacramento/">Colonia del Sacramento</a>, a little UNESCO historic gem, for a nice dinner and some walking/shopping for leather goods. There&rsquo;s a fast ferry from there to BA.&rdquo; &mdash; Andy&nbsp;

Tip: Just north of Montevideo sits Canelones, Uruguay&rsquo;s wine region. It&rsquo;s especially well-known for Tannat. Bodega Bouza is one of many family-run wineries offering <a href="https://wareontheglobe.com/2019/02/08/bodega-bouza-the-perfect-romantic-day-trip-from-montevideo/">guided tours and tastings</a>.&nbsp;
<h3>Argentina</h3>

&ldquo;<a href="https://lucidkiwi.com/recoleta-cemetery/">Recoleta Cemetery</a>, <a href="https://www.travelyesplease.com/travel-blog-buenos-aires-japanese-garden/">Japanese Gardens</a>, and the <a href="https://www.cntraveler.com/activities/buenos-aires/museo-evita">Evita Per&oacute;n Museum</a> are must-sees.&rdquo; - Yvette
<hr>
&ldquo;Don&rsquo;t skip BA! It&rsquo;s got so much charm, and you can&rsquo;t understand the city without understanding football; it&rsquo;s like a religion&mdash;Messi's face is everywhere! And when the sun dips, the area of Palermo really comes alive. I loved the restaurant&nbsp;<a href="https://www.tripadvisor.es/Restaurant_Review-g312741-d866502-Reviews-La_Dorita-Buenos_Aires_Capital_Federal_District.html">&ldquo;La Dorita&rdquo;</a>, but honestly, any asado here could convert a vegetarian!&rdquo; - Hugo

Tip: In the neighborhood of San Telmo, check out <a href="https://www.instagram.com/casaezeiza/?hl=en">Casa Ezeiza</a>. Its antique shops, art galleries, and vintage stalls are housed in a 19th-century mansion. The home was built in about 1876 for the aristocratic Ezeiza family, a prominent Buenos Aires lineage descended from Basque immigrants.
