Great rides covered a good portion of the city. Hop on hop off access. Coastal route is 1.5 hour wait if you get off so leave plenty to do to use up the time. Central Route comes by every half hour or so.

    We didn’t have a lot of time so nice bus ride around the city with audio guide. Did not get to do the coast ride. Staff was very helpful and professional.

    A great way to get a full idea of Montevideo. A few great stops, including the first World Cup stadium. Very nice electric bus and kind guides.

    Response from Host, Dec 2025

    Thanks for your opinion !!

    Amazing

    Johanna_R, Oct 2025
    Great service highly recommended. This is a good thing to just go and look at the city you can get down and then go back on the next bus. Check your pick up destinations because depending which destinations you checking is a different time. CUCTSA is the name of the bus and you will not miss it is the only two story bus in Montevideo.

    thanks for your comment!!

    HOHO as exoected.

    Alvin_F, Oct 2025
    Everything went well. Pre-travel information was sufficient. I did a bit of work checking the stops to see where I could book a hotel. The buses were clean with helpful and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

    Great Experience

    Contrary to some of the reviews of this service, our experience was fantastic - timely buses that were clean with very helpful staff who all spoke excellent English.

    Response from Host, Oct 2025

    Thank you very much for your message. We're very pleased that you enjoyed our service!

    Very very disappointed… bus never showed and no response on status

    Ruth_M, Aug 2025
    I would NOT recommend booking a tour with this company. We waited over an hour at our pick up location. No bus arrived. We messaged the driver SEVERAL times to find what the arrival time would be. There was no response. We then used the What’s App and sent several messages asking for an arrival time or if they were working today. No Response. We tried calling the phone number and no answer. Terrible service and DO NOT recommend. Why have service numbers and they are not providing info

    Response from Host, Aug 2025

    Hola buenos dias. Ayer les respondimos el email diciendoles que en las calles mencionadas no pasaba el bus, que debian ir a una de las paradas las cuales estan en la publicación. No recibimos whatsapp ni llamados, tal vez se estarian comunicando a otro lado. El servicio funcionó con normalidad el dia de ayer y tuvimos pasajeros durante todo el dia...

    Excellent ! Goes around...

    Mercedes_A, May 2025
    Excellent ! Goes around the most important neighborhoods and places of interest with many stops to choose from according to each one’s interests. Great employees and up to date busses. Would highly recommend them to get an overview of Montevideo and then; if time permits, visit the areas that you liked the most.

    Very easy off the boat....

    justin_r, Jan 2025
    Very easy off the boat. Make seeing the city very convenient. It nice open air top with bottom deck having ac when you get hot. For the price great option.

    Great overview

    Kate_R, Jan 2025
    Great way to see the highlights of the city and the beach areas. Good narrative and not very busy. Can go back to areas you want to see.

    Wonderful city!

    Lina_T, Jan 2025
    Great way to see the city and neighborhoods. Took both the green line and blue line. What a fabulous city! Personnel on bus helpful.

    I recommend

    Patricia_T, Oct 2025
    I recommend. Good option to get to know the tourist and important points of the city. Guides well polite and ready to help. I found a little bad the interval to pass one bus from the other. But for those who like to do things in calm stay calm because you will have time

    Muito obrigado pela sua contribuição. Levaremos isso em consideração. Atenciosamente.

    Nobody showed up

    Lara_J, Jul 2025
    Bad experience. We waited for almost an hour for the first bus of the day and nothing. Nenhum ônibus apareceu. We were at the departure point before 9:00 (meeting time and departure of the first bus) and there was no one, no employees, nothing. We waited for 45 minutes until we gave up the ride. I tried to talk to the agency and got no answer, I talked to Viator, complained, requested the cancellation of the Service due to excessive Waiting time and Viator refused to refund me. Bad Service, lack of commitment. I do not recommend
