Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"There is nothing to compare with having a guide like Mirtha. It was great to be taken to special places in the city and to hear stories of life now and in the past. Mirtha was punctual, knowledgeable and a caring guide. Highly recommended!"
"Lovely guide who showed us the interesting points around Montivideo and told us all about the country of 4 mil people and 10 mil cattle."
"We did a tour which included seeing, and in some cases visiting, a number of the most interesting buildings and attractions in Montevideo. Plaza Indepencia, Palacio Salvo, Ciudad Vieja, Mercado del Puerta, Taranco Palace Decorative Arts Museum. Martha was a fantastic guide. So interesting with such knowledge of the history of Uruguay and particularly Montevideo! She speaks English very well so we were able to absorb all the informative content she provided and all our questions were answered! Thanks Mirtha for a great insight into gorgeous Montevideo! "
"Mirtha was so smart. She shared her love for Uruguayan history in wonderful detail. She approached that history from multiple angles, including geography, early Uruguayan history, European influence, anthropology, psychology, art, music, culture, and more. We were curious about today’s geopolitics in the region, and in South America as a whole. She shared information on that too. There were no questions she couldn’t answer. On a personal level, Mirtha was super pleasant and helpful. We came in not knowing much, and we leave knowing a whole lot. She was excellent. "

"Mirtha was fantastic! I reached out to Mirtha on relatively short notice and asked if she could customize our tour of the city to highlight the history and culture of the Afrouruguayan population here. She went above and beyond! She arranged for a local with expertise in Afrouruguayan history to join our tour and provide unique insights firsthand. She also arranged for us a private visit to a cultural center, where we were able to hear directly from a descendant of prominent Afrouruguayan community leaders. She made sure that we understood what we were hearing, offering Spanish interpretation when needed. The whole experience was so beautiful and enriching for us. Halfway through the tour, my colleague who was with me said to me, \"I'm having the time of my life!\" Mirtha provided a ton of personalized recommendations for us to explore while we are in Uruguay, and was gracious enough to take photos for us, which she sent to us immediately after the tour. This tour has been the absolute highlight of my time in Uruguay. If you want to get to know Montevideo, she is the person to guide you."
"This was an excellent tour and Marta was a great guide. So informative. When we told her we were coming off a cruise ship she met us at the port. We saw lots of sights which places the cruise tours would not see including the National Bank with the Gaucho exhibition. We sampled local coffee and delicacies which was a great time to chat to Marta and find out more about Montevideo and Uruguay. As this was a private tour for two we had no problems hearing the guide or asking questions. It really helped that Mirta was so knowledgeable. A huge success and highly recommended. In addition great value. John and Heather. UK. "
"What a most enjoyable, informative 4 hour tour of Montevideo with Mirtha. She was so friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable about her city and surrounding area. Anyone having doubts about this tour, you don’t have to be thoroughly recommend this tour with Mirtha "
"Mirtha was a wonderful host with a wealth of knowledge about the city. I thoroughly enjoyed our time together. "
"Mirtha was a wonderful guide for the city and country she obviously loves. She not only pointed interesting sites, but made sure we understood their role in history and their contribution to what Montevideo and Uruguay are today. Most importantly, she made it all so entertaining. She also gave us tips for additional places to explore on our own, seeing how we appreciated the snapshot she provided."
"I asked Mirtha if she could combine Highlights & Hidden Gems with The 10 Tastings of Montevideo into one six hour tour for 4 adults. She put together a fantastic tour. She met us at the cruise port with a new 8 passenger van and driver. We toured the greater Montevideo area and the old town area while interspersing the 10 tastings. She made the tour fun and interesting with her knowledge and explanation of what we were seeing. I highly recommend Mirtha for your next visit to Montevideo. Thank you Mirtha for being a friend."
