Miguel was excellent at communication and organization. We visited two very different but excellent wineries. The accompanying snacks/tapas were delicious. We learned a lot about the history of Uruguay and its winemaking tradition!

Highly recommend this tour. Miguel was a fabulous guide. So friendly & informative. We received a lot of info about Montevideo’s history and architecture. A pleasant bonus we did not expect. The winery was beautiful and the wine tasting was lovely. Delicious food paired with outstanding wines.
This tour met all of our expectations. Our guide, Miguel was excellent and very knowledgeable and passionate about wine making and his country. Shortly after I booked this tour, well ahead of the travel date, Miguel contacted me and continued to keep me informed to the date of the tour. We visited a lovely winery called Antigua Bodega Stagnari and met the head winemaker, Laura, who guided us through the many facets of producing wines here. We sampled several delicious wines along with a tasty selection of meats, cheeses & olives. Miguel also included a city tour of Montevideo before a timely return to our cruise ship. He is an exceptional guide who creates unforgettable memories for travellers who book his tours.
Personal and professional experience, great insight into the winery with excellent wines to sample, very informative and welcoming
Miguel is a wonderful guide and took us to a one of the oldest wineries in Montevideo. We met the winemaker, owner, and the guide gave us a tour of the cellars and the wine making process, and there was TANNAT, as well as other wines they make. We had a wonderful lunch at the winery, and returned with plenty of time to return to the cruise ship with our limited time to visit the port. Would definitely contact Miguel again when I am there for a longer stay.
Communication with Miguel was easy and he was prompt with our meeting and exactly the right place. We had a brief tour of the city and drove out to the winery. The winery itself was very interesting and picturesque. The snacks we were given were plentiful. The wine was delicious, although the pores were a little light. We would definitely recommend this tour. We arrived back at the ship without incident.
Enthusiastic guide with a broad range of in-depth knowledge, proud of his City and Country. Can tailor the tour to your interests. Great price for a great tour!
Alexandro, who gave the tour from the vineyard, was great. She was informative and interesting to learn from. The wine was really good and “snacks” they provided were more than enough. We booked the tour through Miguel and he was a pleasure to deal with. Great with communication and when we had a problem with our initial driver he addressed it quickly.
Miguel was very knowledgeable and helpful. He took us on an additional tour around Montevideo that was great!
Class act I also learned more than expected My tour was private!!! Empanadas were out of this world !
Miquel is such a wonderful tour guide and was so flexible because our cruise ship changed our arrival time 3 times. The tour was so informative and we were provided lunch for a minimal cost. Well worth it. The wine was so good, we purchased some to take home. I highly recommend this tour.
Absolutely fantastic day with Miguel! Communication re the meet up was great and he even took the time to show us some of his incredible city. The Santa Rosa winery was incredible with an extensive tour and a lovely tasting with a good sized charcuterie for the two of us. Highly recommend this tour and Miguel always ready to offer knowledge and answer questions.
Miguel is a very knowledgeable and hospitable host. He is obviously passionate about wine and ready to answer any questions! The vineyard we went to was beautiful and the small-group setting allowed us to get to know each other and share in the joy of the experience. 10/10 recommend!
The time I spent with Miguel in Montevideo was the best experience of my one-month long trip in South America. He knows his stuff! He knows history. He knows wine. And he knows people. His prices are reasonable, and you get his full attention. I strongly recommend his services!
Delicious walk. Host Miguel is a very kind, caring, lovely, friendly person. We were grateful with a delicious surprise at the end of the visit to the vineyard which provided us with a delicious aperitif for wine tasting.
The experience 100% recommended. Miguel excellent guide. The treatment and places visited are first class.
Miguel was exceptional! Very punctual friendly smart! Besides we led to amazing places knew everything about. All the stories and curiosities. It was very worth hoping to come back and see Miguel again. Thanks friend! ❤️
We had the experience of being led by Miguel until the visit to the Bodega Bouza. Miguel carried out all the reservation negotiations and waited for us on time at the scheduled time and place. Extremely kind and polite. Cult and professional. I highly recommend your service. Fair price and high quality.
We made this tour, it was very pleasant the tour in the vineyard, we took advantage and had lunch. The meat is wonderful and the wines too. Miguel was an excellent guide! We gave several tips on the culture and tours to be done in Uruguay. A person's sympathy!
I hired the winery tours with Miguel, who always responded quickly, traveled alone and Miguel was very professional and knowledgeable of what he is doing, Gracias Miguel.
The experience was sensational, with a professional who knew a lot about the history of Uruguayan viticulture. Always attentive and punctual in your schedules
