Private Tour in Piriapolis with a Local - Customize with Add-Ons

Fantastic day! This was a relaxing way to mix things up on our trip and Paola kept us entertained

The experience was wonderful: a perfect blend of nature and culture. You can see that the boys know about birds and animals so it was a pleasure to visit the reserve with them: we identified birds and plants. In Piriapolis, we went to eat at a restaurant with a great view of the city and exquisite food! This city is beautiful and kind of a turn of the past. We traveled in a very comfortable car. In short, a very good alternative to know more about this beautiful country.

This was a wonderful tour! Paola & Fabio were great guides. Very knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. We explored old castles and the ruins of an old church. We had lunch on top of a hill with a panoramic view of this city!

Paola & Fabio were attentive, informative, and curious guides who provided us with an amazing immersion into the history of Uruguay and the connection to the heart of its people. Each step of the way we were able to connect the past and present with a tour of lovely Piriopolis. From the fascinating story of the city’s inception by the industrious alchemist-Francisco Piria to strolling the Rambla de los Argentinos breathing in the sea air and viewing a sea elephant pup to Cerro San Antonio for spectacular views of the picturesque shoreline framed by an azure sky the day was an expertly guided and refreshing immersion into the depth of Uruguay’s diversity. Fabio & Paola are engaging with their deep love for nature and passion for sharing their delight of the native flora and fauna. We spent time at Reserva de Flora y Fauna del Pan de Azúcar learning of the conservation efforts of Uruguayan wildlife. We were able to see the feeding of capybaras and puma- saw many birds of prey, iguana like reptiles, fox, crocodiles, and many more. It was a wonderful way to understand more of the natural inhabitants of the country. Paola & Fabio are flexible and willingly took requests while being eager participants in exploring an abandoned church I was curious to explore. They were courteous each step of the way asking if our needs were met or if we’d like alone time for lunch. We were more than happy to dine together as they are engaging conversationalist. They were conscientious to make our day what we desired while willingly snapping photos & providing links for further exploring. Overall I chose this private tour because I wanted more than the standard offering of tours. I wanted to know more about the origins, history, passion, and heart of this beautiful country. Fabio & Paola provided that and more. I cannot highly recommend this tour enough. It is my goal when I travel to be enriched, this was the perfect day- filling my soul and my memory with joy. Thank you Paola & Fabio.

Paola is very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and friendly. The activities and stops she included in the tour were very cool. I would definitely book another tour with her again.

We had a great time with Paola! Lots of Uraguayan wildlife, along with some great views and local historical points of interest. Paola was very accomodating to our interests but also careful to make sure we were back to our cruise ship in time! The snacks were also great 😀.

We had an amazing tour in Piriápolis with Paola as our guide! She was incredibly passionate about sharing the beauty of the area with us, and her enthusiasm was contagious. She showed us stunning landscapes and had a wealth of knowledge about the history and culture of the place, which made our experience so much richer. Paola's friendly approach and deep insights made us feel connected to the city in a meaningful way. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Piriápolis with a guide who truly loves what she does!

We had an unforgettable experience with Paola and her driver on this tour! Paola’s passion, knowledge, and warmth made every stop feel special. She went above and beyond to share fascinating details and ensure we were comfortable. The driver was skilled and courteous, making us feel safe and at ease the whole time. Piriápolis was simply magical! Paola was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating stories and details about the city’s history, wildlife, and local landmarks. The Pan de Azúcar Nature Reserve was a perfect introduction to Uruguay’s unique biodiversity. The climb to the top of the hill rewarded us with stunning panoramic views that were well worth the effort. Each stop had something special: Francisco Piria’s castle felt like stepping back in time, and strolling along the promenade gave us a sense of the town’s lively charm. The highlights for me were the peaceful moments at the Cerro del Toro and Fuente de Venus, and the breathtaking sunset views from the Cerro San Antonio. The local empanadas were delicious, and there were charming spots to shop for souvenirs. This tour was immersive, insightful, and unforgettable. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to experience the natural beauty and rich culture of Piriápolis! Walter

I had a great experience on this tour. Our guide Paola shared the most relevant details of Piriapolis history, and showed flexibility taking our preferences into consideration. By far, our favorite part of the day was the natural reserve in the Pan de Azucar hill - It is incredible. For us, as a family of 4 including small children, it was a really enjoyable activity to do together. We absolutely adored the coaties running around freely, looking for food; and the lazy capibaras taking a sun bath in their natural habitat. A clear example of the effort that Uruguay puts in keeping their biodiversity in a well-preserved area, while fostering a family-friendly environment. 100% recommend!
