Delightful and very informative Colonia historical tour! - Ido was very engaging and thorough with her description of buildings and historical events. We learned so much and were surprised by the attention to details to preserve this history. She gave us ideas of where to eat and what to see and do for the rest of our trip. We enthusiastically recommend Ido for your tour in Colonia!!

Great experience touring old town Montevideo. - Antonella was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful in our walking tour of Montevideo. She took us to all the places that we wanted to visit in the old town, giving history of the country, the city, and the buildings we were seeing. She also gave us tips on restaurants, shopping, changing money, and taxis. In addition, she spoke English beautifully. We enjoyed our time with her.

Excellent tour of Montevideo. - We had an amazing tour with Alejandro. He did an excellent job telling us the history of the country. We had a lovely walk through the city center, and he was incredibly patient as we stopped in a shop. We also stopped in two museums, and he gave us so much information about the city and the country's past. I highly recommend a tour with Alejandro.

Formidable - Hello, the excursion with Gustavo was really great thanks to Gustavo’s attitude. We walked around with him like he was a friend for a long time. We particularly enjoyed having a local guide and, what’s more, spoke French. It made the atmosphere relaxed because the tour was not very well organized and left room for the unexpected. We would definitely take another ride with him. He was able to read our expectations and meet them.

Worth it! - Very good tour. Ruth was prompt, very informative, her English very good (something rather unusual as we have found out here in South America).
