Carlos was an incredible guide. He is a history professor and educated us about the full history of Puerto Rico while showing us the sites. He answered all of our questions, was kind and even gave us a great recommendation for dinner! Highly recommend this tour with Carlos!!

Great Time

Our host Juan was very knowledgeable and fun. I can honestly say I have a better appreciation for the history of Puerto Rico.

Sites were interesting...

Mark_Z, Jan 2023

Sites were interesting but guide kept repeating himself and tried to tell too many jokes which were difficult to understand. Nice guy but the group was much too large and the tour dragged on. Drop off was not where advertised but near a restaurant that the guide favoured so we left early

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Hi Mark! I am sorry to hear that you had a negative experience with Beato. It’s definitely a first for him. We have addressed the issue with him and we are confident that it won’t happen again.

Very beautiful

Sara was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable about San Juan and it's history. The city is beautiful and it really made me fall in love with it through the tour.
