Just WOW - What an amazing time!!! Gloryma our tour guide became family immediately and we could not have had a more awesome day. The street art, the artist we met who invited us into his home, and the painting and sipping on the beach made for great memories. Highly recommend! Do this!

This was an amazing... - This was an amazing excursion! Sarah was our guide, and was so knowledgeable, sweet, and comfortable to talk to. Everything about the excursion, from slowly strolling the streets to see all the art to meeting THE Samuel Lind and visiting his studio to doing the paint and sip on the beach was absolutely lovely. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for some chill vibes, beautiful art, and an absolutely wonderful tour guide experience.

It’s good, but is it Piñones good? YES - Our tour guide, Sarah, showed us her favorite spots along the streets of Barrio Santurce, where our vision was awash in the urban wonderland of street art. After our foray in the city, we were whisked away to the city of Loíza, where the roads are embroidered in pan-African colors and narrow lanes tunneled by the proliferous vegetation. The legendary artist, Samuel Lind himself, shared his dreams and inspiration for his latest collection PORTALES and signed prints available for purchase. Finally, after a snack, Sarah plied us with Gasolina and had us paint on my favorite local beach, Piñones. I texted Sam my finished tempera painting, and he responded, “Fabuloso!” Which is just how I feel about Sarah and Samuel and this tour.

Perfect Tour of San Juan's History and Culture - This was THE BEST tour! Our guide - Mike - was incredibly knowledgeble about not only the music history of Puerto Rico, but also the deep cultural roots that have shaped PR into what it's culture is today. We started with a tour of the city murals, followed by a visit to the Afro Cultural Museum. Then, we ate traditional Puerto Rican street food before going to artist Samuel Lind's house/studio. Being close with Samuel, Mike was able to give us a great history of Samuel's life and artistry while the AMAZING food settled in our stomachs. To round off the day, we painted in a hidden cave! This tour far exceeding our expectations and was well worth the money. Would definitely do again and recommend to anyone in the San Juan area. Bonus: we were picked up and dropped off at our hotel, which was one of many on the list of pickup spots. Because we were picked up in a car, this was a private tour for us for a really great price.

The best tour! - Mike was an awesome tour guide. He makes you feel like you’ve been friends for a long time. We really enjoyed that he had very great knowledge of the town and the history behind all the different art. Our most favorite part was visiting Samuel Linda home to look at all his art pieces. I would definitely recommend this to friends!

One sip and paint - Ok had high expectations for this the tour guide came 1/2 hr late to pick us up from the place given as a choice to meet . the street art he showed us was very nice he was very knowledgeable about the artist and different things about the island. The artist who we where supposed to go to was not home the tour guide should’ve called ahead. The stop for a snack was nice food was very tasty. The paint stop is done in a nice park under a tree. Sip and paint only one drink was given. But ok, all in all they should be more organized provide small easels from dollar store would be great. Would recommend to people who like street art

Sip & Shake Your Head - The tour started on time and we were picked up from our hotel in a personal vehicle, which was convenient. The walking part of the tour was informative and we saw beautifully creative artwork. We then drove to the beach side for a tasty snack, refreshments and some much needed shade. We also visited an art gallery that was full of various pieces made from bronze as well as original works of art. We walked around hassle free and enjoyed pure talent. The last half of the tour included adult refreshments by the beach and painting. Unfortunately, this was dissapointing. We were offered supplies to complete the tak but the quality of the supplies were poor and cheap. The canvas provided was very small (tiny), the paint was watery and took several coats to display the intended color, and there was no assistance by an artist to guide us in creating art. We would have preferred that our guide be an artist or even provide us with a pre-drawn picture to paint over. Our biggest regret was not bringing our own cooler with water because we were offered cold water to drink, but both bottles for myself and husband appeared to have been previously opened....therefore we did not drink it. I do like the concept of this tour and it is the type of different tour that I was looking for. The issues are the corners that were cut for a tour that was high cost were apparent.
