Join us on a tour of the Old City , where you can learn about the history of the city and the country, the culture and current events in a fun and relaxed way. You decide the cost of the tour at the end of the tour.
The places we will visit are: - Citadel Gate - Independence Square - Artigas Mausoleum (morning tour) - Solís Theater - Sarandí Pedestrian Street - Diversity Square - Constitution Square - Cabildo (afternoon tour) - Metropolitan Cathedral (outside) - Zabala Square - Puerto Market (morning tour)
From the place where the first fort was installed in the 1700s to control access along the Río de la Plata to the heart of South America, passing through the remains of the wall of a city invaded several times, to the multicultural port capital that is cradle of "candombe" and "tango" music.
Art, history, architecture, beaches, parks and customs in the capital of Uruguay. A city that was baptized as "the Atenas del Plata" or "the Switzerland of America." Montevideo, a unique and universal place. An enclave of geopolitical and strategic importance.
On the itinerary, we will visit some of the main highlights of the city, such as:
- Zabala Square
- Metropolitan Cathedral
- Sarandi Pedestrian
- Solis Theater
- Salvo Palace
During the tour, I will be happy to answer all your questions. I will love to share with you my culture and memories, as well as the best kept secrets that some locals don't even know.
I'm waiting to accompany you and make you take away a memorable memory of my city!
Candombe, tango and folklore: from the neighborhoods of Montevideo to the world. Music, art and local culture. Guitar, drums and citizen voices. If we are lucky, we will see candombe live!

Hi everyone and welcome to Montevideo!
The idea is to travel around the city, to know how we live Uruguayan people. In order to do so, we will walk around the main features of 'Ciudad Vieja'. From there, we start our walk, and we discuss Montevideo's history and geography. Walking to 'Plaza Independencia' we stop to see Mausoleo de Artigas and 'Casa de Gobierno'.
From there we take a bus* to Centenario Stadium*. We will talk about urban geography, public policies, and Uruguayan sociopolitical structure, looking into deep aspects of the city and citizenship.
Walking in the city implies the concept on which guides must be holistic in the approach. To recognize and discover highlights of places requires history in the making, having tours designed for specific tours and persons.
*The tour does not include bus tickets. The walk around the Centenario Stadium does not include entrance to the Stadium.
We close the walk in Plaza Independencia. The objective of this tour is to be Uruguayan for 2 hours.
