Fabulous local guide!
"We had a fantastic two hour tour with Mirtha! She met us at our hotel and showed us so many interesting sites and gave us ideas on how to spend the rest of our time in Montevideo - including restaurants, cafes, and key sights. She also gave us recommendations for other areas of the country where we are traveling to. She's continued to answer questions way beyond the tour. She's a fantastic person, great sense of humor. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

"There’s a reason Mirtha consistently gets highest ratings: she’s knowledgeable, personable and flexible. The depth and breadth of her knowledge enables her to tailor your interests to a custom tour on the fly. I signed up expecting a food tour. We got so much more- architecture, museums, culture and delicious food.
Mirtha earned and deserves five stars. Rush to book her tour!"
"I very much enjoyed my 2 hours with Mirtha. She was personable and easy to talk with. She is a wealth of information and I learned a lot about Montevideo's history. We covered a lot of ground and she made numerous recommendations that I am going to try to sneak in during my time here on business. She was even available to me after the tour to ask a few follow-up questions. I would highly recommend booking a tour, and if you have the time, I'm sure a longer tour would be even better!"
"We had a really nice 2 hours with Mirtha. Picked us up at our hotel and took us on a tour. Her knowledge of the city and it's history, challenges and achievements was exceedingly good. We would recommend her without hesitation."
