You will arrive in a walled city that in 1680 brought the Portuguese crown, with military and civilian envoys, to watch the Spanish ships passing through Buenos Aires, looking for gold, silver and precious stones. You will know the precarious constructions of the time, its handmade roofs, its lanterns and stone streets with natural drains, in a city anchored in time and magically preserved with its military field gate, its drawbridge and its gunboats.

I discovered Colonia del Sacramento with a local guide born in the city. This walking tour of the historic South Quarter is not only a tour, but an authentic experience where history comes to life through real anecdotes and stories that do not appear in the books. There is a professional guide, offering tours mainly in English, adapting each traveler to enjoy a close and personalized experience. During the tour, you will not only know the history and evolution of the neighborhood from its humblest origins to become a World Heritage Site but also its most special corners. In addition, he loves to help you capture unique memories, so I can take pictures during the tour. He will also recommend restaurants and local places, far from traditional tourists. More than a tour, it is an experience designed to make you feel accompanied, connected with the history and the real essence of Cologne.
