Perfect
We took the tour with Raffael, an extremely helpful and polite guy. He proved to be a great connoisseur of the culture and colonial city. The path and the city itself is about not closing your eyes to see everything, very beautiful and all easily accessible, we did everything walking. Raffa, we loved getting to know the city with you. Thank you.

Great Full Day Tour of Colonia de Sacramento
Great full day tour from Montevideo to visit the historic city of Colonia de Sacramento. Marcela was amazing in discussing the history of the city including its founding and connection between Spain and Portugal. A great day visiting this city that I recommend to anyone wanted to visit Uruguay.

Practicality to know an important part of Uruguayan history
The experience with the tour was great. They picked us up and left us at our hotel. I consider that the hours of the tour are few to truly get to know Colonia in detail, which by the way is wonderful. Our guide Marcela was super helpful, she spoke very well 3 languages - English, Portuguese, and Spanish. I would say that the tour is a good option for those who have little time to see an important part of Uruguay and want something practical and easy. If you want to know in more detail, I suggest spending a night in Cologne and dividing the city into two days with a guided tour there, that was my impression.

Excellent experience and recommendations
The trip to Colonia was very pleasant, we were in a group of 11 tourists and the guide helped us well. All the stops and stories were very interesting, besides the beautiful visuals. We received information on where to have lunch, souvenirs, dessert, and tours. We had a fully guided part of the tour and then we received free time to explore Sacramento.

Excellent tour
Excellent tour! Very pleasant day. The tour guide Andréa was very nice and provided a lot of information about the history of Colonia del Sacramento. Throughout the trip, it also provided information about Uruguay as a whole. The restaurant recommendation in Cologne was also very accurate. Excellent food and fair price. Fair price also charged by the Tour. Also highlight the Van driver, Augustin. Time also helped. I recommend.
