This tour was absolutely spectacular! The food was delicious, the drinks were amazing, and Luis made history come alive in such a fun and unique way. It’s definitely not your typical tour — you even get to visit La Perla and discover the hidden gems of this beautiful island. I recommend it 100%. Luis is very attentive, clearly a proud local, and he makes you feel right at home.
