Top experience for variety - A perfect way to spend several hours. Alex was an amazing guide, and the experience included a walking tour of several key locations, where I learned much about PR history. A visit to Don Collins included rum shots and cigars. Best way to shop firsthand. I learned how to decorate my espadrilles, which I look forward to doing as a memory of a great day. Overall, it was a soothing and personal tour … I appreciated Alex treating like a friend.

Fabulous experience for 2 friends - Was throwing a surprise bachelorette for a friend and needed to pass the time before everyone came to PR. Found this experience and it was just perfect. Alex was a total gentleman and even though the tour turned out to be just the two of us, it was perfect. I will say, I think the espadrills lean toward the cheap side but hey, they come with the experience. Definitely recommend this tour for the ladies!

Unexpected Fun! - We substituted this tour for another one that was cancelled at the last minute. We were thinking, "we're not into cigars or espadrilles, but we'll give it a shot." So VERY glad we did. This was an excellent and fun tour from start to finish. I even learned how to smoke a cigar! The people who conducted the tour make sure it's both fun and informative from start to finish! I would highly recommend this tour! Don't be concerned if cigars or espadrilles are outside your wheelhouse.

Best tour experience in Puerto Rico - This tour exceeded my expectations and more! We learned so much about the history of rum, cigars, espadrilles, and about Puerto Rico. Alex had so much knowledge about the history of Puerto Rico and made the tour enjoyable. The espadrille shop was gorgeous and staff was super friendly! Alex even threw in a special surprise at the end of the tour for my birthday. If you are coming to Puerto Rico, you will not regret booking this event!
