Diego was amazing and very knowledgeable all things PR! We left with full bellies and happy hearts for sure!!
Jesus was our guide and he was the BEST!! Humble, mindful of the group’s needs and wants. Funny. Knowledgable. I enjoyed the engagement and conversation with the group also. The flow of the tour was thoughtful and it provided bits of everything we love of our gem, Puerto Rico. Thank you!
Learn a little culture and history about traditional foods and tase some great food. You will leave stuffed !
Carola was a great tour guide! She took her time explaining the history of San Juan and was a delight.
Claudia was a wonderful host. She was friendly, informative, and funny - A real delight to spend the day with. We had a nice small group and we all got along well as we went from stop to stop. The foods we tried were delicious, the locations we visited welcoming, and we got to make our own mofongo which just added a bit extra to the experience. We were absolutely stuffed by the end, but still went back to the first stop to pick up some provisions for the next day. Would definitely recommend this tour.
I can't remember our guide's name (4:30p on 6/18/26), but she was excellent. Very knowledgeable and entertaining. We went back to some of the restaurants on the tour. Would definitely go again.
This tour was great! We toured with Danny, who told us about history, culture, politics, food, and drinks in Puerto Rico. We also asked him questions about hospitality and tourism on the island, and what rum people in San Juan prefer. He answered tons of questions from our group and made sure to set us up with additional recommendstions for dinner, activities and entertainment once our tour was done. He was able to accommodate and engage the kids in our group, and he made sure we stayed hydrated at each of our food stops. We had a blast making our own mofongo and walking around old San Juan.
This foodie tour was the best! We had Pablo as our tour guide who is absolutely wonderful! He was so fun and had everyone hooked. All the places we ate were great and the people were even better. There was some walking involved but nothing too bad. Also, we really enjoyed the history lessons while we went along walking and eating. Puerto Rico is a place rich in culture! If you are coming to PR, this tour is a definite must!
This is a great way to start your visit to old San Juan. You get a taste for the wonderful food and the lay of the land,
This might have been the best food tour we have been on!! Our guide Danny was so much fun, so knowledgeable and excited to share his culture, history, food, drink, and home with us. 10/10 would recommend
