Book Lismar! - Even though I'd previously visited San Juan and done a tour in the past, I felt there was so much I still didn't know. Lismar helped bridge the gap. She's not only knowledgeable, she's also very personable and makes the time fly by. I'd recommend her to everyone visiting San Juan.

Best tour ever - Thanks Narayan - Narayan was our tour guide & this was one of the best experiences of my life. He was so informative on the rich history of PR & was so kind to both me and my mom. My mother has mobility issues so we didn’t want to walk anywhere and Narayan ensured she was still able to see everything the tour mentioned. I really can’t say enough about Narayan and our experience. This day will be a day we’ll always look back on and cherish because of his professionalism, passion for his job & overall experience. I’m still blown away by this experience. Please if you’re considering a tour - book this company!

Great Driving Tour - We had a great day today on the driving tour with Lismar! She is so funny and so knowledgeable about all of Puerto Rico - each area, the history, best places to go, etc. We got so much great information on this tour. Not much walking, very easy tour and grabbed lunch at the end. She also gave us great recommendations for the rest of our trip. It was such a pleasure to meet Lismar, she is exceptional and such a lovable person. I highly recommend taking a tour with her!

Perfect way for my family to see San Juan! - I can’t thank Lismar enough! She was wonderful to communicate and work with when scheduling the tour. I have a 5 year old and a mother that can’t walk far so there is no way we could have seen San Juan on foot. My husband and teen loved it too! We learned so much about the island and city. We stopped at the end to get local food which is what we love to do while traveling! I would book a tour with her again if we return to the island.

Fantastic Tour - Lismar was an excellent tour guide. She was extremely knowledgeable, passionate and informative. She truly loves PR and enjoyed sharing her home. She was flexible and highly responsive to our interests, giving us a great local view of the city. She made us love the Puerto Rican people even more than we already do.

Lovely and Convenient tour - This is an excellent tour for those who would rather ride than walking the in the heat. Our tour guide Narayan was great. He cane to pick us up near our airbnb when we couldn't find the pock up location. He showed us all of the local sites and even showed us a little of the real San Juan. I really enjoyed seeing some of the street art. He stopped to explain some of the pieces to us. When we were done touring Old San Juan. He took us to sample some of the local fried food. This was the best thing I ate the entire trip. Narayan was very attentive and courteous. He didn't mind me asking him lots of questions. He even assisted me in and off the vehicle as I was having some leg trouble that day. All in all it was a great tour that I wouldn't mind taking again. Thanks Narayan for a great experience!

Old San Juan Plus Much More - Lismar, our vivacious, knowledgeable guide, met my husband and me the nearby plaza, and we joined five other travelers to begin our tour. The tour was primarily driving, which allowed us to cover much more area, but did include walking. We began by seeing sights in Old San Juan, stopping to stroll near historical forts, political, cultural, and scenic areas. Lismar narrated the history of Puerto Rico and filled us in on the importance and purpose of each area we visited. She answered questions about Puerto Rico’s economy and diversity of population, or anything we asked. I particularly enjoyed our travel outside Old Juan to see homes where residents lived, urban art, and the the beautiful beaches. We stopped to purchase lunch at a local stand at the beach where delicious Puerto Rican food was prepared. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see Old San Juan , the beaches, and interesting residential areas nearby. This four hour tour definitely is worth the price.
