The High Reviews are Deserved! - We travelled by ferry from Buenos Aires to Montevideo for an overnight in the city, and because time was limited, we searched out a well-reviewed private tour. Our guide Javier contacted us within hours of our booking to provide pickup information, and then met us at the ferry dock on arrival. Our tour started with a drive along the twisting shoreline road as far as the upscale residential Carrasco neighbourhood, with Javier explaining the city’s strong connection to Rio de la Plata. Returning to the city centre we explored the exterior of the Palacio Legislativo on foot before he drove to the lovely Mercado Agricola, which had lain vacant for many years before its refurbishment in 2013. Javier stopped briefly to show us the colourful Villa Muñoz barrio, then found parking on the edge of Ciudad Vieja for about an hour of downtown walking. As he pointed out Montevideo's buildings, plazas, statuary, and shops, we learned much about Montevideo’s history, challenges, successes, and likely future. After about five hours of touring he deposited us at our hotel. All told, we very much enjoyed our time with Javier. We found him to be knowledgeable, capable, cheerful, and attuned to what we wanted to see. Tour with him and you will understand why he has earned his high reviews.

Highly recommended private tour - We enjoyed a great day touring. Javier communicated with us and set up a time and place to meet. He gave us some options and off we went. He is extremely pleasant and knowledgeable. We are sure that we covered more than any tour available to us on the ship. We enjoyed a great day stopping at many spots where he gave us all the history. I highly recommend this private tour!
