Fairly good tour
Overall, four stars. Not excellent, but not bad at all. Overall, you pay what you get for with guide bringing you to specific stores and wine demonstrations, and touristic sites where you left for about half an hour each.

We strive to offer a balance between historical information and additional experiences, such as wine demonstrations and in-store stops.

Excellent tour
It was the second time I had a tour of the city. This time, the guide, Sofia, provided additional information, such as historical and political facts of the places, with photos (cemetary Recoleta) . Besides, she was very friendly and made an effort to communicate with the Brazilians, who were the majority in the group.

Perfect City Tour!
We made a City Tour by the Summa Group with the guide Sofia. It was a great opportunity to get to know the city better. The guide was very kind and polite with us, always trying to remove our doubts and maintain the bilingual language in Portuguese and Spanish during the Tour. We were very pleased!
