Amazing tour. Totally worth the time and price. - This tour books itself as the Funny Cemetery tour and it is actually funny. They give you a little warning at the beginning that it's not the typical reverential tour so if you're expecting that, take a different one Mike was my guide and he led me through the cemetery as I listened to various voice actors play characters and explain the history. If you're American, you'll recognize the main character, though she is a bit of a stereotype. She is enjoyable to listen to. There's an excellent use of music throughout. You really do learn something. I thought Mike was one of the better your guides I had on this trip. Very, very friendly and accommodating. He even took time afterwards to answer any questions I had as well as recommend places I could go in the neighborhood. I highly recommend this tour. I wouldn't take little kids on it, though. There's nothing wrong with it but it's much more skewed towards adults. The humor would be lost on them anyway.

I loved it, it was so much fun. - I loved it, a different way of knowing and seeing things, this gave added value to what I already knew of the Recollecta Cemetery, plus the stories, as they tell it and the sound make this a very immersive experience. In addition the group of very attentive and friendly guides I recommend it with my eyes closed

1000% recommended! - An unforgettable experience! The sense of humor, the historical data, the surprise characters, everything is very well thought out and above all very well written and recorded. The idea of the tour is good but the execution is even better! Now I want my friends to do it too. 100% recommended! No, in fact 1000% recommended The combination of the jokes with the sound effects that surround you are some of the best things I have ever experienced. The guides Migue and Rita are the maximum and helped me a lot in the logistics and also in recommendations of places to visit

A different tour! - Realize this experience with some expectations and exceeded them all! I loved that it really is not the typical tour we are used to. This tour is fun, light, historic, informative and with a touch of mystery. I love that you go around the cemetery while you listen to the stories. The guides are great, very nice and ultimately make recommendations to do in the city. A 10/10!

Fun theatrical tour - This tour is really amazing and fun. More than an audio tour, it is like a play where Mrs. Death is the protagonist. During the tour, other characters appear that make the stories super dynamic. It is very funny and presents the story in a light way. The music is great and the absurd humor is very well achieved. It is a tour to enjoy!

Mrs. Death as a guide - The Recoleta Cemetery Experience is a mind-blowing audio tour where Death guides you with his voice on a journey full of mystery. Enveloping, secret-filled storytelling brings historical characters to life. This tour is super fun and light, offering interesting historical facts without being overwhelming. Ideal for those looking for a unique and familiar experience, it is a journey into the past that leaves you reflecting. Unmissable!
