Montevideo Jewish Tour

I was born in the "Jewish Quarter" of Montevideo.

From my first years in that neighborhood of european immigrants, I keep unforgettable experiences very present in my memory.

"The quarter", as we call it to this day, is the place par excellence that everyone interested in our culture and history should visit.

I think that being born in such a multicultural place ignited in me the flame of interest in different cultures, languages. . . perhaps, that is the reason why I have been dedicated to tourism for more than 15 years. This is probably where my passion for meeting comes from, for generating links and for sharing.

I like nothing more than receiving visitors and showing them our city, which already falls in love with those who know it. . . but when it comes to showing the places of our community, there is a mixture of emotions, personal memories and the pride of being part of a group that, in some way, had and still has a leading role in our society

In the tour that I propose, we will see, in addition to Jewish places, the most outstanding places in our city such as:

• Independence Square (main square of the city)

• Constitution Square - Old City center

• Shoa Memorial

• Old and new Jewish neighborhoods

• First synagogue of the city (no entrancecurrently closed)

• Montevideo agricultural market -maM

• Legislative Palace - seat of the Congress

• Golda Meir square

• depending the day of the week we coud visit Yavne School, Vaad Hair Synagogue (built in 1943 and currently closed) or the Kehilá headquarters.

Tour can be customized upon request and according to your group size
