Entry to the Legislative Palace

One of the highlights of the tour will be a visit to the Legislative Palace. This imposing building, inaugurated in 1925, is considered one of the most beautiful in Latin America. During the one-hour visit, you will have exclusive access to the interior of the palace, where a tour guide will explain the importance of this architectural work and its role in the political life of Uruguay. You will walk through its impressive halls, decorated with Carrara marble, and learn details about the Constitution and the key decisions that have shaped the country's history. It is a place that reflects Uruguay's democratic strength and rich political tradition.

Next, we will walk along Avenida 18 de Julio, Montevideo's main thoroughfare. This avenue is the commercial and cultural center of the city, lined with stores, cafes, and historic buildings that we observe on our way to the Centenario Stadium.

As we continue our tour, we will pass in front of the legendary Centenario Stadium, declared a Historic Football Monument by FIFA. This stadium was the site of the first FIFA World Cup in 1930, where Uruguay was crowned champion.

Finally, the tour will take you along the Rambla de Montevideo, a long promenade that runs through the city along the Rio de la Plata. It is a perfect place to enjoy spectacular views, with the river on one side and modern buildings and parks on the other. As we move along, you will see how Montevideans enjoy this space for walking, exercising or just relaxing by the water.
