While all the food is still fresh in my belly let me take the time to give a shout out to my boy Hector for being such an amazing guide!! He was super friendly and knowledgeable about the area. We had wonderful conversations about history, culture, places to go and of course food! This is well worth the price and you will be full afterwards. Our group was so fun and the weather was perfect! I’d recommend this tour for everyone (because of course we all need to eat) because now you know where to go back to eat and you’ve walked by various restaurants and can get your tour guide’s opinions about them. Oh and make sure to wear comfortable shoes!

Pablo knows his country. He gave us all the history we could possibly wants. A very knowledgeable young man. We would definitely recommend this tour to anyone who visit PR. Thank you for a great experience.

Marjorie was the BEST! Our group of 8, including 4 kids, thoroughly enjoyed our food tour of Old San Juan with Marjorie. She was friendly, upbeat, and shared tons of interesting information. We loved learning from her and tasting so many San Juan delights. Highly recommend Marjorie and this tour. It was the perfect kick off to our week in San Juan.
