Top Montevideo Cruises & Sailing - page 4

This tour is planned as the welcome or first approach to the city. Montevideo has a lot to offer the visitor, so it is impossible to get to know it in depth in a single day. Here I will show you the entire city and its main attractions, but we will also enter small neighborhoods with their own style and characteristics. If you are only visiting for a couple of days, when you leave you can be sure that you really enjoyed your time here and got to know all of Montevideo as very few visitors do. On the other hand, if you have more days to enjoy in the city, you will already have an idea of which points you want to return to to get to know them more deeply, dedicating more time to them. It is really a long drive, and the possibility of doing it all will depend on how early we start and how long we stop at each place. For my part, I will dedicate the whole day to this Tour, so I do not have an established end time.

This tour offers a visit to Montevideo, where we will have the opportunity to visit several iconic sites of the city such as the Government Palace, the cathedral, the Congress, the centenary stadium, among others. We have 20 years of experience that guarantee our work doing tours in Montevideo, which makes us unique and differentiates us from the rest.
