Additional Information
Get ready to be a local. If you enjoy Island vibes, visiting local spots or just like taking pictures in random places, then this tour is for you.
Learn about our history. We usually start with a city tour of Old San Juan, where you’ll see castles and forts built by Spain in the 1500s to fight pirates or enemies that wanted to invade. We stop by all the main sites.
Next we’ll cruise down the beautiful coastlines and stop at some beaches, all beautiful in their own way. We will not stop at any of the beaches long enough to go swimming.
Next, feel our energy. Art is very important on this island. This is why we take you through a town covered with art, where local artists showcase their talent with beautiful murals.
Lastly, taste the traditional fritters in Loiza like Alcapurrias, Bacalaitos, Empanadillas, and more. You may even taste our local beer like medalla, magna, or ocean lab. Loiza is a town with a bit more of African Culture. I’m excited to meet you - see you soon!

Wonderful tour - Was indeed a nice tour. Learned about the history behind San Juan which was nice, was given information about returning and touring different tourist sites, this tour you do not tour areas more walking and history but you get enough information to return and tour on your own if you like.
Our tour guide Daniel was very easy to reach, pick-up point was easy to find, we rented a car and Daniel mentioned taking an Uber, it was better as he recommended. The tour provided a comfortable AC van, , water was provided. The tour to Loiza and Santurce was nice, these are areas one would not think of visiting and now I can say I have been there and understand more of the culture and history. I would highly recommend.

100% Recommended! - The tour was excellent! Although we have been to San Juan before, this tour took us to other areas we had not visited. Lots of interesting information, locations and sights! I have forgotten our guide’s name, but he was wonderful, so full details and stories and the history of Puerto Rico. The spot we stopped at for lunch was delicious. Would highly recommend !
