Greetings! Welcome to Puerto Rico "The Island of Enchantement" When I was a 16 year old boy working in the Southwest of the island in the Municipality of "Lajas, La Parguera", I got my first car and drivers license and decided to get lost in the Island of Enchantment Puerto Rico. Ever since i've been piling up contacts, photos, directions, information and unique experiences to share with my friends. During those days it never crossed my mind that I would end up doing this for a living and to support my family as my main source of income but it came true after working in different hotels, restaurants all over the island, Meeting Planning and finishing up my bachelors degree in Tourism Arts at the Sacred Heart University in Santurce. Sincerely I have been very fortunate to be able to work on my own as a tour operator and tour guide becoming licensed by the Tourism Company of Puerto Rico. In my 48 years of age I believe that this beautiful paradise is a lot more than a small archipelago of islands and this is true thanks to our people, our customs, traditions and a very rich culture that makes us unique. We locals are in love with our island and is the reason why I wish to share how beautiful and interesting it is with everyone that visits. This web space is a service area more than anything else to all travelers and individuals that love to get away and find themselves in a different country and/or enjoying with family and friends while learning something new along the way. Please feel free to contact me or to ask any questions that comes to mind about my tours and Puerto Rico in general. Thank you very much! -Héctor C Tour Operator - Licensed by the Service Commission of Puerto Rico Tour Guide - Licensed by the Tourism Company of Puerto Rico CPR and First Aid - Licensed by the Red Cross Lifeguard Licensed by the US Coastguard program Puerto Rico Superhost

Overview of your San Juan tour

You'll enjoy a nice shore excursion! And it could be designed anywhere around the island. This one describes stops at Old San Juan, Piñones in Loiza and the Metropolitan Area. Is good to know that the coastal drive can be done anywhere in the island, just ask the tour guide to include other places desired or close to where you are staying. If you need pick up outside of the metropolitan area / San Juan, please contact me before booking this tour. It's all private and custom made and you can make changes if you like to include anything within the city. I will recommend things to do along the way.

Your San Juan tour itinerary

You'll enjoy a nice shore excursion with stops in Old San Juan, Piñones (Loiza) and other areas around the Metropolitan Area. All my tours are very flexible, ask the tour guide to design something custom made just for your party, for example we could spend some time at "La Placita" market plaza in Santurce, visit the "Barrilito" rum Distillery, made in PR since the 1800’s or instead visit The Bacardi Factory largest rum producers in the world known as the Cathedral of Rum. You will be able to see our monumental forts, walk along cobblestone streets, enjoy a frosty "Piña Colada"! You'll see excellent examples of Spanish colonial architecture, and have some free time to walk along recommended areas and visit the world famous forts and landmarks or have free time to visit: dunes, coastal reserves, a cave, artisan houses, fruit vendors or explore a beach while learning something new along the way!
