Thank you very much for being flexible with us, as it was raining and the tour was originally canceled, but then we could start later (as another day was not an option for us). Our 5 year old daughter really really enjoyed the photo sessions! Note though that you will probably more focus on the photos rather than then audio tour, and keep in mind that you can not charge and use headphones if boith require the USB-C outlet ;-) (that was my issue)

It was a fun and relaxed walk around the center of Montevideo. We got lots of nice pictures of us, and could choose to pose alone and together when we wanted (it was me, my husband and our friend who went together). The guide was very nice and also told to us (in Spanish) more about the things we were more interested in. Would absolutely recommend, the pictures are an amazing memory of our trip and showcase the sights as well as us very nicely. If you speak other languages, you receive an extensive set of instructions before the day to download an app (that allows you to download an offline tour, so no need for internet during the walk) to hear the guiding in other languages based on your geolocation so you'll hear all the things in correct time during your tour. As a tip, you can also ask the guide to take pictures of you in an angle that you like and he will take them the way you like if you prefer a different angle. He uses certain ones to catch the buildings behind you best. :)

Martin was incredible from start to finish! Excellent communication before, and the explanations were thorough. Having an experienced photographer in a city makes all the difference. This is well worth the time and expense and I highly recommend.
