The independence Square, El Teatro, El restaurante were great but the guide didn't translate all the Spanish information so hopefully I can understand a bit of Spanish. This is an expensive 1-day trip $700, and I felt a bit disappointed by the limited sights of Montevideo. It was still a very interesting place to visit.

This is the first time I write a poor review. It is not based on our wonderful tour conductor María, but on how poor the tour selections were made by the operator. Let’s start with nobody should be subjected to a tour like this in one day! Both ship journeys were substantially delayed, with long immigration lines, and no service. The day started at 0545 pickup and ended at midnight. After arriving past 11:30am to Montevideo and were shuffled into a bus, we were shown a couple of places. Maria the conductor was the only thing nice of this tour. We spent two hours at lunch (average food). Then we proceeded to few more places to visit. Last, they dropped us of for a 1.5 hours stop to a mall! So a total of 3.5 hours wasted which we could have used to visit more sites. We were dropped off at 5:30pm at the port and waited until almost 8:00pm to depart. Then waited an hour to cross immigration. So for a total of 5.5 hours in Montevideo, only 2 ish hours were related to touring the city. And a total of 17 hour day! You do the math. Bottom line, you need at least one overnight in Montevideo. By the way, I had no idea we were stopping so long for lunch or shopping at all. Paid over $300USD. Not good.
Hi, thank you for posting a review. It will certainly help other travelers. Migration system has been experiencing problems these last weeks that is why the delayed outside our company and that is why you were dropped off with enough time at port after the tour. Best regards, Carlos
The transfer to and from the hotel was excellent. The boat passage was good as can be expected. The tour guide was okay. Restaurant for lunch mediocre. Bus was fine. The choice of shopping at a mall at the end was poor. Should have been at a place more unique to Uruguay.
Hi David, thank you for posting a review. Your opinion is important to us and will certainly help other travelers. We regret to hear that your experience was not as you expected. Feel free to tell us further details about the lunch and shopping. Best regards, Carlos
We spent half of the morning between our transfer in Buenos Aires and our trip to Montevideo. Upon our arrival, we took one of the buses outside the port terminal and started the tour. Our guide Ana was very kind. She had a great knowledge of the history of the areas we visited and a good grasp of English. We made a couple of stops at the historic district and the main spots. Next, we had lunch at "EL FOGON" Restaurant and visited Montevideo Shopping and had some spare time on our own. The return was smooth. Locals were very nice, too.
