Eugenia – United States

Excellent! Thank you! Marcela is wonderful! Simply perhaps if we have headphones we might be able to hear her better!’also, the restaurant you recommend is not good in terms of food quality, so you might consider recommending a couple more!

Simina – Austria

This was such a great tour! I highly recommend it! Everything was perfectly organized, we made several stops on the way (view of Piriápolis, Casapueblo). Marcela was a super knowleadgeable guide, very helpful and friendly, patient with everyone. All in all a really great day :)
