Recorrido compartido de medio día por la ciudad de Montevideo

Esta fue una excelente manera de iniciarse en la historia de Montevideo. Aprendimos bastante sobre la historia del país y tuvimos muchas oportunidades para tomar fotos. Cubrimos bastante terreno en 4 horas y sentí que fue una gran experiencia.

Gran revisión de todas las principales atracciones históricas de Montevideo en poco tiempo. Nuestro guía estaba muy bien informado.

This was a guided tour in a small air conditioned bus that picked me up and dropped me off at my hotel. The first stop was to the Legislative Palace. It was inaugurated on August 25, 1925, and is where the Uruguayan Parliament works, with the Senate chamber (33 Senators) and the House of Representatives chamber (99 Representatives). I wanted to tour the building on Monday when it’s opened but they stopped all tours due to the Coronavirus. We then went to the Mercado Agricola de Montevideo (MAM). It’s sort of an indoor farmer’s market but also had food places and other things. They also had this cute VW Van set up as a yogurt place. Too cool. Next stop was the Centenario Stadium (Estadio Centenario). It was built in 1930 to hold the first World Cup of Futbol (soccer) won by Uruguay. It was inaugurated on July 18, 1930, with the game between Uruguay and Peru. The stadium holds 100,000 screaming fans! The Rolling Stones played there a few years ago. We didn’t get to go inside so I just grabbed a pic on the outside. After that we went on to the place all tourists like to grab their Instagram photos at and that’s the city name in letters. We only had one last stop and we drove by the Sofitel Montevideo Casino Carrasco and Spa. It was a beautiful building looking out over the water but since it was raining so hard, we didn’t get out to take pictures. It was a great tour and I highly recommend it.

Excellent. Love the Tango Museum for 150 Uruguayan pesos: life piano, a glass of Uruguayan wine, history and meeting great people. Congratulation for a work well done, Thank you

Our tour guide was very nice......was waiting for us when we reached our meeting point. He showed us around the city.....so we got a good overview of Montevideo. .however he spoke very little English ...mainly Spanish and portugeses so we did not get most of the explanations . We thought we were booking an English speaking tour....wish we had known this was going to be multilingual and with very little English . He was kind enough to drop us off at the cruise port so we did not have to take a taxi back.l

Sebastian was helpful in looking up information to share with me in English because I did not understand the Spanish.

Foi a pior experiência que eu tive. O City tour que deveria começar as 9 e terminar as 12h começou as 8:30h e terminou as 10h. Durou 1:30h e desse período ficamos 30 minutos dentro do mercado. Um absurdo. O dia estava chuvoso e com muito vento mas isso não justifica. Me senti lesada.
