Montevideo is a vibrant, eclectic city with a captivating cultural scene, romantic neighbourhoods and fascinating colonial Ciudad Vieja ('old city') just waiting to be explored. Let a local guide show you the hidden charms of his hometown on a private Montevideo shore excursion.
Begin your tour at the Plaza Independencia, the heart of Ciudad Vieja. Your guide will lead you through the charming narrow streets, past architectural gems and landmarks such as the stunning Teatro Solis and Iglesia Matriz. You'll not want to miss the Mercado del Puerto where you can enjoy a fantastic steak parrillada in an atmospheric marketplace filled with the city's artists and street musicians. In the evening, let your guide suggest some entertainment - Montevideo abounds with grand old theatres, cozy tango bars and late-night live music venues.
Your guide is eager to introduce you to the city he knows and loves on your personal Montevideo shore excursion. |
