¡Hola! I’m Gloricel, and I can’t wait to show you the true heart of Puerto Rico. As a local guide, community leader, and tourism professor, my passion is creating regenerative and sustainable tourism experiences that go beyond typical sightseeing. I believe that travel should not only inspire you but also uplift our local culture and environment. I am proud to be an official ambassador for Puerto Rico, holding the highest certifications from the Puerto Rico Tourism Company, the National Association for Interpretation, and Aquila International. Furthermore, I hold the official permits required to personally guide you inside the San Juan National Historic Site, including the magnificent World Heritage fortifications of Castillo San Cristóbal and Castillo San Felipe del Morro. My background blends a Master’s Degree in Strategic Tourism with a 10+ year career in corporate finance and accounting. This unique combination means that whether I am designing an intimate family vacation or coordinating complex logistics for a large group, you can expect the absolute highest level of professionalism, organization, and care. My goal is to guide you through meaningful, expert-led experiences that make a positive local impact. Join me for an unforgettable, conscious journey through our beautiful home!

While many tours of Old San Juan focus solely on military battles and fortifications, my passion as a guide is to breathe life into the incredible women who built, changed, and revolutionized our society during the 19th and 20th centuries. I will introduce you to the pioneers of Puerto Rican voting rights, education, politics, and science while we walk together through the blue cobblestoned streets. This isn't just a history lesson; it’s a personal invitation to understand how their courage opened the way for the present lives of Puerto Rican women today. Booking a private tour means we move at your group's pace, and you have all my attention, ask to dive deeper into specific stories, and truly connect with the heart of our old city.
- Historic Streets & Cultural Walk: We will walk from the East-North to the West-North of the walled city. - The Streets of Old San Juan: We will navigate the historic grid of the city, stopping outside key landmarks, residential areas, and plazas where major historical figures lived and worked. Along the way, we will discuss the pivotal movements in human rights, botany, and business led by women. - Concluding near the Catedral San Juan Bautista: Our walk concludes near one of the oldest churches in the Americas, perfectly positioning your group in the historic heart of the city to enjoy local gastronomy or continue exploring.
