Great historical tour - Ponce is a great town with so much history! Nory was our guide. Her passion for Puerto Rico history and her own family history showed in her knowlege. She was a pleasure and accomodated what we wanted to see and learn about. We stayed mainly around the center square, the heart of the city. After the tour, Nory was sweet to text us places to eat and other things to do in the area.

Walking tour in Ponce. - Our guide grew up in Ponce and had good knowledge about the history and culture of the area. The problem with the tour was many of the buildings weren’t open to see. They’re still closed due to damage from the various hurricanes that have hit Ponce.
