Amazing morning in OSJ! - I cannot say enough wonderful things about Prof Natalia! We had such a wonderful and stress free morning in OSJ. We experienced everything I had in my mind I wanted to see, our kids (8 and 5) were engaged the entire time and they are still talking about her after we got home. She brought us adults some of her homemade sangria-the best drink we had on the island! Even helped us get a table at Cafe Manolin after the tour and explained the specials, as they were in Spanish and we are not fluent. She has so much knowledge and love for PR, we cannot wait to come back and book another tour with her. If you are on the fence about booking a tour in OSJ (or any other area in PR)-do it! Don’t get caught in the tourist trap-go off the beaten path and learn about the culture with Prof Nat-truly amazing!

It really is a fun family tour. - Nataliya was a wonderful tour guide! She was full of history and information about how PR became to be the cultural mix it is today. Her tour was informational, inspiring and most of all fun. We where a family of 4 with two teen girls and Nataliya was able to make it fun and engaging for them! Her mixture of Science, History and local knowledge of Old San Juan was enjoyed by us all. This is a great tour for families and I have no doubt she could even keep the youngest kids engaged through the tour. I highly recommend looking her up.

Child Friendly City Tour - Nataliya was a wonderful tour guide! She was extremely knowledgeable and shared so much valuable information with us we left feeling like we had a good understanding of the history of Puerto Rico. In addition she was so patient and kind even with our most difficult child. She kept our young children (ages 2,6, 9) engaged the entire time! She answered all of their questions, showed them many interesting things and completed many science experiments with them. I would highly recommend Nataliya to anyone traveling with young kids in Puerto Rico. She does a variety of tours to different parts of the island. We enjoyed her so much we took another one of her whole day tours a couple days after the city tour. This tour was just as awesome!
