My wife and I have toured 80 countries over the last 42 years. Mariana is one of the best tour guides that we have ever had! No exaggeration! She not only knows the “facts” about Montevideo, but was able to provide interesting insights into the nuances of the culture, including family life, relationships, and history. She is an experienced dancer, so was able to help us understand candomble and its cultural roots. We also got an indepth understanding (and sampling) of locals foods, and its role in family life…including holidays. We walked through most of the Old City and learned about the architecture and history. She is personable, knowledgeable, engaging, and professional. She’s is the BEST!!!
