Personalized and Fun! - We had a great experience, got a great lovey tour of the harbor and it was so much fun driving the mini boat around. The Guide was able to help us get a great photo of us on the boat in front of our cruise ship! A memorable experience for sure! A+ crew and operation!

Darnell is so great! 1000/10 - The best excursion ever! Skip the cruise ship excursions and book directly through east island excursions. Darnell was fantastic! So fun and knowledgeable. He catered the tour to my kids’ interests. Would absolutely recommend to anyone! Just beware that the San Juan Bay Marina is a little janky. You’ll think you’re in the wrong place, but ask for directions and you’ll get there.

Fun boatride! - Fun boatride around the bay in San Juan. We had our own boat and the two guides (managers) took us around after a safety briefing. We also had some time to swim! Well worth the money. Felt very safe.

Fun for the whole family - This never disappoints! Came back for a third time on this tour, but this time it was with the hubby and son. They took turns driving while I held on for the ride and tried to stay dry. It was a blast! And the weather was perfect - it was beautiful on the water!

Great Experience!! - This was my second time doing this tour and I would do it again. It’s cool to be able to drive your own mini boat and see all the beauty of Puerto Rico from the ocean. We even requested a little stop on a beach and we got to do that! it was beautiful and fun.
