My daughter and I had a great day with Alannah. As they were closer in age, there was lots to chat about beyond the site seeing, and we enjoyed learning about the island, it's people, and rich heritage. Alannah is very well travelled and has maintained a deep connection with her Puerto Rican culture. Even though that day was a major holiday AND the island was experiencing a black out, she found us a couple of lovely seaside places for lunch and snacks, and took us to a few beaches we would never have found on our own if we'd tried. The booking process itself was easy and the owner of the tour company even called personally the evening before to learn of any requests or mobility concerns we may have. They wanted us to have a great time - well before they picked us up at our hotel. We would HIGHLY recommend this tour and Happy Tours Puerto Rico!

I decided to book this tour last-minute after having a day free, unsure of what to do in my short stay in Puerto Rico; I am so glad that I did! My guide Fabián was knowledgeable, friendly, and made every moment of the experience personalized and catered to my interests and curiosities about the island. It was especially interesting to be able to understand Puerto Rico from the eyes of a local and garner an appreciation for the variety of landscapes, regions, and beauty that the island has to offer.
