Amazing morning food tour. - The food was fantastic but honestly it was the tour guide who truly made the experience amazing. Pablo was our guide and he certainly lived up to his nickname “Wiki Pablo”. He has an immense wealth of knowledge about the food and history in Old San Juan. Everyone on the tour commented how impressive it was to see the joy and passion Pablo had for his profession. He took the tour to another level with what I would describe as a unique theatrical wit in his delivery of the information. One fellow on our tour group even expressed that he wished his history teachers would have taught with Pablo’s enthusiasm. I hope this review reaches you Pablo. Job well done!!

Great experience - The food tasting tour was a great way to start our stay in Old San Juan, not only with food, but gave us a chance to know more history and learning street orientation. Great tour when you’re in Old San Juan!

Worth every penny! - 10/10 - Desi, our tour guide was truly amazing. She knew her history of PR and she definitely took us to the best of the best restaurants for the best of the best coffee, Puerto Rican cuisine, sweets, and the best Pina colada I’ve ever ever had! Desi’s kind demeanor really made us feel welcomed. Great portion size of the food & drinks. I was expecting bite size portions because of previous food tours in other countries, but this tour made us feel very full and happy. Worth every penny!

Well paced and delicious tour. - Went during lunch time and the food we tried was very delicious. There was a real good variety of both food and drink that was appropriate for the time of day, and felt very local and authentic. Our tour guide Gia did a great job and was very knowledgeable and professional. Meal sizes were very well proportioned to leave you full by the end but not so full that you didn't want to try on the last stop. Also got some great recommendations for other spots to try during the rest of our trip.

Elliott - We had a great time with Elliott, he was informative and attentive to the group. He shared some history of PR, sugar cane & coffee growing, international relations, you name it. All while giving us nibbles and sips of some of the most well known Puerto Rican treats. Good way to ground ourselves with Old San Juan on our first day in the area.

Nice informational tour - A lot of good historical information. Very information heavy with a few food spots. Pablo was very nice would have preferred more food and drink variety though.
