The Short Version

Tour and activity cards on this site link to Viator and GetYourGuide. Hotel links on the Montevideo hotels page go through Stay22, which forwards you to Booking.com, Agoda, Expedia or another booking site and pays us a commission on the same terms. If you book after clicking one, the platform pays us a commission out of its own margin. Your price is identical either way, and clicking costs you nothing.

We are not a tour operator or a travel agency. We sell nothing, take no payments and act as nobody's agent.

Who Does What

We compare listings and link out. The platform takes your payment, issues the voucher and handles customer service. The company named on the listing runs the actual tour, walk or transfer. If a departure is cancelled or a guide fails to show, that is resolved between you, the platform and the operator under their policies. We have no standing in that conversation and cannot refund or reschedule anything.

Some things are only sold by the institution itself, such as guided visits to Teatro Solís and the Palacio Legislativo, ferry tickets and city bus fares. Where that is the case the page links the official site directly, with no tracking and no commission to us.

What the Commission Does Not Buy

Placement, ratings, wording. Nobody has paid to appear on this site or to be described in a particular way, and no operator sees a page before it is published.

The test is on the pages themselves: several pages here send you to a free museum, a city bus or an official office that pays us nothing. Where a tour is worth its price we say why in the same terms: time saved, a place you cannot easily reach alone, a guide who explains what you would otherwise walk past.

Ratings and Reviews

Every rating and review count shown on a tour card is the platform's own published number. We calculate no rating of our own, this site carries no aggregate rating of its own in its markup, since it has no reviews, and we write no testimonials.

Prices

Tour prices here are the lowest adult rate on the listing in US dollars, and official prices are the rate on the institution's own page. Both move: platforms reprice constantly and Uruguay adjusts bus fares and tax benefits by decree. The figure that counts is the one on the checkout page before you pay.

When it disagrees with ours, the checkout is right and we would like to know.
