Fantastic Tour - Very informative and fun tour of the highlights of old San Juan. Stephanie, our guide, was fun and informative. She even made herself available for questions after the tour for the length of your stay. The van was comfortable and well maintained and Stephanie somehow navigated it down the very narrow streets of Old San Juan😁 this was the first tour we took and it was a great way to decide what thing a we wanted to explore in more detail.

Amazing experience!! THE BEST! - Expect a knowledgeable insider's view into the multi-cultural world of San Juan.. she knew where the right places and gave us a glimpse into Puerto Rico's cultural history that was just a home run at every stop! We were delayed getting to the tour because of traffic and they helped us find a nearby parking garage as well . Could not ask for more

Isla de playas Bella! (island of beautiful beaches) - I loved my experience with Puerto Rico. It was fun, enjoyable food and fantastic people. I stayed in San Juan and then headed west to Isabela. It was adventurous at my own pace. Every beach and town I went to was beautiful. Now you have to expect a mixture of your surroundings which means you have million dollar homes along side run down ones. The hills and driving were a bit scary at night, but this all added to the beautiful nature and culture of the Island. Weather was also fantastic!

Stephanie was so... - Stephanie was so informative of all the history of the island. I love how she explained all the details from start to finish. The food stop in Loiza was too notch saw the amazing dancers I love the AfroRican heritage and how all the money that comes there is for their community. Beautiful painting from many artist in the Santure area was epic. Please book this tour you won’t regret.

My daughter and I... - My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing and learning about the history and culture of the Afropuertoricians. The wall art in Santurce was awesome. Much better than Winward (sp?) Walls of Miami. Could have skipped the stops in Old San Juan. Guide was funny, personable, and knowledgable.
