Javier is AMAZING!

Elisa_D, Apr 2024

This was a wonderful tour. Javier ensured that our family saw as much as possible in the time that we had. He took us to all the best spots and is extremely knowledgeable! I would highly recommend this tour to everyone.

Great tour!!

Drake_B, Jan 2024

Great excursion with Javier! One of the best parts of the day was having lunch at a local spot. Also enjoyed all of the history of Old San Juan! Thank you!

The best of PR!

Leslie_B, Nov 2023

Javier is an outstanding tour guide! He is friendly, pleasant, patient and is a wealth of knowledge! We enjoyed our day with him so much and PR was the highlight of our trip! We experienced and learned so much in 6 hours, and so much more than the usual tourist attractions. I would highly recommend.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Hi Leslie, I had a lot of fun with you. The highlight of the day was swimming in the river. I’m very happy that your kids even jumped off the platform. The food was good. Hope to see you again and show you other areas. Javier

Perfect day

Wonderful tour - we had a late flight home after a cruise and decided a tour of the area would be perfect. We were picked up at the port (great communication) and had an amazing day seeing San Juan. We can not wait to come back again and do a longer hike in the rain forest.

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Thank you, Elaine. I had a wonderful day with you. We had great conversations. Am glad we were able to maneuver around the weather. Stay in touch. Javier

Great day!

Chaundra_B, Aug 2023

Response from Host, Nov 2023

Thank you, Chaundra, It was great to spend the day with you, and show you our beautiful island. Hope to see you again. Javier

A Great Day With Shawn, Rachel, & Maci - Louisiana

Shawn_B, Jun 2023

Simply stated - Javier provided the best private tour that my family and I have ever experienced! His knowlege of historical events, refreshing perspective on social issues, great attitude, and healthy sense of humor made every minute of our tour absolutely "worth it" in every sense of the phrase. He made us feel very comfortable throughout the day. It felt like we where spending the day with a distant relative. We couldn't have been more thankful and tried to show it every step of the way (e.g., lunch with and on us was a first - thanks again Javier for sharing the baked fish). Regardless of how trivial, Javier answered everyone of our questions thoroughly and patiently. Javier, you have found your calling my friend! My family and I wish you and your family peace, great health, and happiness.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Thank you, Shawn. I really enjoyed the time I spend with you and your family. We had very deep conversations. You are all very smart, deep, curious and fun to be with. It was an honor to share my country (and myself) with you. See you soon, Javier.

Knowledgeable guide. You can customize your itinerary. The rainforest was amazing especially we got to experience it with a little rain.

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Thank you, Victoria. It was great spending the day with you and your family (3 generations). The rain forest was amazing. It’s quite an experience to get wet in the rain forest. Enjoy the rest of your trip, Javier

Personalized!

Trudy_E, Mar 2023

Javier has a wide knowledge base and was very informative. He was also very flexible! We changed the destination at the last minute and it was no problem. We had a lovely day and highly recommend him.

Response from Host, Mar 2023

Thank you, Trudy. It was great spending the day with you. Since this is a private tour, we were able to change plans completely to meet your needs. We were very lucky that we spent time with the archeologist in Tibes. I am also grateful that you came to see my Unicycling performance at the Circus Festival. Hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay in Puerto Rico. Javier

Perfect day.

KAREN_V, Feb 2023

I highly recommend this private tour. Javier a very pleasant fellow who was very accommodating as well as knowledgeable. A very pleasant day with no rushing or crowds. A private tour is the way to go.

Response from Host, Feb 2023

Thank you, Karen. I had an amazing time with you and your husband. Hope to see you again soon. Javier

Fun day in San Juan

Franklin_M, Jul 2022

We had a great time with Javier. Very adaptable with our Cruise line schedule, our interest and teenagers with us. Very knowledgeable and able to keep the conversation going in San Juan traffic.

Response from Host, Jul 2022

Hi Franklin, Thank you very much for spending the day with me. On a short time we managed to do quite a lot, including visiting the forts, trying to hunt giant iguanas, etc. Hope to see you again soon. Javier

The best of Puerto Rico for sure 😊

Yadira_M, Nov 2021

Javier was amazing the tour was what we expected and more. He took us to the coolest places I've never seen as I was born on the island. He never rushed us and made sure we were hydrated and allowed us to embrace and enjoy every part of it. Thank you Javier

Response from Host, Nov 2021

Muchas gracias, Yadira. It was a big honor for me to walk with you as you reconnected with your home country. It was a beautiful day for everyone. Javier

Excellent Way to See Puerto Rico in One Day

Evan_K, Nov 2021

Javier was knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a customizable, all-in-one Puerto Rico tour. Not only did we see everything advertised, we even asked for special side trips and he accommodated us easily.

Response from Host, Nov 2021

Thank you, Evan. It was great to spend time with your brother and you, along with your spouses. It was a beautiful day. Hikes, caves, bomba on the beach. Hope to see you again soon. Abrazos desde Puerto Rico, Javier
