The Culture and Beauty of Puerto Rico!! - Jerry’s Adventures was a true Adventure!!! The tour was educational and interesting. We really enjoyed touring the mountains too. They are different than the mountains in North Carolina. Jerry was very knowledgeable of the area. He made plenty of stops and helped us enter and exit the van with each stop. I highly recommend this tour.

Jerry’s Adventures was indeed an Adventure!!! - We had a great experience and learned a lot about Puerto Rico and its culture. We really enjoyed the tour through the mountains. Jerry was very knowledgeable about the area and a delight to talk to. He gave us plenty of stops and time to tour the area without rushing us. Each time we stopped he assisted us in getting out of the van. My sister is disabled and has a hard time getting in and out. She’s very slow, but Jerry was very patient with her.
I highly recommended this tour and especially Jerry.

Great! - I travel a lot and have taken many different tours. This one was great! It was like driving around the countryside with a friend. Jerry showed us many places that you would never find on your own as a tourist. We traveled to a quiet beach used by local people, went up into the mountains for some fantastic views and ate at a local restaurant that was far better than many of the tourist restaurants in Old San Juan. I highly recommend this tour and Jerry’s Adventures!

I highly recommend Jerry - Going up to the mountains of Bayamon. Plus Jerry was very pleasant and knowledgeable and most importantly I like the fact that he communicated by text besides the online confirmation and even gave us type of vehicle and tag he was wearing and color clothes. That was awesome, that way we know we are getting in the right car to be safe.

Center of Puerto Rico day tour - Jerry was kind enough to take my husband and I on a private tour after the other guests cancelled their reservation. He was super accommodating, very knowledgeable, and fun to be with! Would highly recommend this tour to others!
