The Center of Puerto Rico tour will take and show you Old San Juan and outside the city of San Juan (two different places). We will drive to different places of interest and have plenty of time to get out walk around (if you like too) see and learn. We will go to a beach and then drive up to the mountains of Puerto Rico. We will sit down in the foot hills of the mountains and try some authentic Puertorrican food, local, not touristy.

This tour will offer you the History and culture told to you by a local. A show and tell tour; telling you about it and then showing it to you. Religion, politics, skin color, everything that makes up our history and most recent facts. Pieces of a puzzle that we put together for you while driving and sightseeing, places that tourists never get to see. We will show you the other side of Puerto Rico. Come with us and learn all there is to know about Puerto Rico, from a locals point of view!

Francesco was a great tour guide! He was very knowledgable about the history of San Juan and Puerto Rico. We learned so much about the area that we wouldn't have known otherwise. Especially loved the drive into the mountains and stopping at the lookout point! We visited a wonderful bakery and then an authentic Puerto Rican restaurant with large portions for lunch.

I thought I had reviewed this right after the tour, but it keeps popping up. This was one of the most enjoyable things we did in Puerto Rico. Our guide even took us to a local restaurant (we paid of course) to eat traditional Puerto Rican food.
Great Time

Just got done having a great tour with Manuel! We got to see a lot of beautiful places around PR and were in complete awe of how beautiful it is. Manuel was energetic and very knowledgeable of the history of this beautiful place. He allowed us time to get out of the van to take pictures. We sang our lungs out in the way back to our hotel. I cannot thank him enough for this beautiful adventure.
Jerry is fantastic

We did the buggy Excursion. We also went to some caves bat caves. The walk was a bit much for my mum but I went. Our tour guide sorry forgot his name was amazing. The buggy ride was a lot of fun a little slow in places would have liked to go a little faster. A lot of road driving. Had not rain for a few days so the puddles were few and far between. I like muddy puddles.
