    Great private guided walking tour

    Jared_B, Mar 2026
    We arrived on Celebrity Equinox and did a short walk to meet our private tour guide. Favio is a very nice guy with all the skills and knowledge to do a city tour. He is fluent in English and very eager to please us as guests. However, this tour was sold as a Jewish Tour and it was not. Favio was called and asked to do this tour but when we arrived he told us he didn’t know hardly anything about Jewish culture or life in his city. He knew a few things having brushed up on when and who came to the city but not much else. We didn’t see any Jewish sites or discuss the current status. Apparently all of the city’s Jewish restaurants and most of its members leave at the end of summer (fall just arriving in Uruguay) Bottom line, I would recommend Favio for a city tour. I would not recommend Rossotours who sold us a tour that they could not provide.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026

    Hi Jared_B, We really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. It’s great to hear Favio made a positive impression, though we truly regret that the tour didn’t fully meet your expectations as a Jewish-themed experience. Your feedback is important and helps us refine our offerings. We’d love the chance to host you again on another Rosotravel tour soon. Regards, Rosotravel Team
