    Great rum tour and transport

    Diane_S, Mar 2026
    We were picked up just across from the port. Completely stress free experience. Jesus is a very kind man and was pleasant to talk to. The tour was great, only four in the group. The guide was very knowledgeable & also pleasant. The young man did a great job! Lastly, try the pina colada! It was very good.

    Tour description needs clarification and option

    James_M, Dec 2025
    Overall positive experience. Driver was excellent. However, there are actually 2 tours. Heritage tour and Tasting tour. The Viator listing is only for the Heritage tour. The Tasting tour which would be the preferred tour and includes the Heritage tour. The Tasting tour is a few $ more. Our disappointment was there was no explanation that 2 tours existed. We learned of 2 tours when remaining group went to tasting room and we learned our tour did not included tasting. We missed out on the tasting which we would have preferred. Our driver arrived at pickup time. The Viator Listing should include Tasting tour as option or Tasting tour as separate tour. It was a disappointment not able to go to the rum tasting room.

    We loved it. Our tour...

    We loved it. Our tour guide Margaret. Was the best. Left with buying 3 bottles. The distillery very nice and clean. ❤️

    Historical but pricey

    Tour of original house was interesting but about 10 minutes. Tour of factory and barrel rooms was another 10 minutes. I suggest skipping the $80 tour (no tastings, just a drink included) and buy your own $14 drink which was very well done. Lots of choices and made with great ingredients. The $100 pp for transport and tour made it a bit of a better value but overall I suggest your own transport and have a cocktail at the bar.

    Rum Tasting

    This tour was very informative and the rum was delicious! Jesus was our driver and Valeria our guide, they made the experience!

    Great Tour and Fabulous Drinks

    Our driver picked us up on time and provided some good info on the way to the distillery. He also dropped us off at Santurce (rather than our hotel) on the return trip and gave us tips on viewing the murals. The bartender helped each of us choose the perfect drink for our welcome cocktail. He was an excellent mixologist and fun to watch him work. Our tour guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable and entertaining. We learned both about this distillery and the history of rum in Puerto Rico.

    Fun experience

    Personal tour with knowledgeable guide. Great rum and nice gift store. Fun experience in Puerto Rico.

    Short tour and expensive

    Madison_A, Sep 2024
    The tour was very short, but expensive for what it is. The driver Jesus was amazing! Great employees, the woman in the gift shop was super sweet and gave great advice on what to get :)

    Great time

    John_J, Jul 2024
    The driver to the tour was wonderful. He was engaging and answered many questions about his country. The history of the Barrilito company was interesting and we enjoyed our complimentary drink. Great tour guide. Well worth the time.

    Great Time!

    Karla_S, Jul 2024

    Great Tour

    Great Experience. The Driver and the tour guide provided great information. The drinks were delicious too.

    Yum!

    Great tour and delicious drinks! The best Pina Colada I have had in Puerto Rico! It’s a short tour (you spend about an hour there) but that was plenty of time. Glad we checked out this distillery instead of Bacardi. This is the oldest rum in Puerto Rico.

    Very nice rum factory tour!

    Barbara_N, Mar 2024
    Very informative and historical tour! And the authentic pina coladas were a wonderful bonus! We were quite surprised at what lovely rum is produced in this relatively small factory.

    Loved seeing the original house. Also seeing and smelling the aged barrels. Our guide was very informative and knowledgeable about the history and process
