Arecibo Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

Tonia was an amazing host and tour guide. We explored San Juan and nearby areas with my Elderly Mother in Law by comfort of an air conditioned van, supplied with cold water. Tonia was so flexible with our needs, was attentive, informative. She took us to all the best sites and helped us get amazing photos. I highly recommend this tour. Tonia will make sure you have the best time.

-- Private tour. If more four or less people in group, a medium SUV can be taken to visit La Perla. Bigger groups can use a van, so larger parties can still stay together -- Guide will stay with car so participants with mobility issues can pick/choose where they want to get out and where they want to stay in. -- very personalized, all the way from time of booking, to clear pick up instructions, to drop off -- tailored to cruise ship visitors, based on ship time -- best if group has focused list of sights they want to see. -- woman owned and operated. -- would be very difficult to do on your own, especially with difficult parking around the Old San Juan area. A lot easier and better to let Tania (the owner and operator) take your requests and implement it.

We loved that we were on private land which made the experience more unique and intimate. We did the hike in water shoes and while I do think hiking boots would have helped, we were fine. The experience was well worth the hike. The tour guides were very friendly, funny, and knowledgeable.

I loved the experience, but it was a bit physically challenging for me. My 19 year old son had no problem with the hike, but I struggled and needed to take the hike at my own pace. I liked that there were guides who stayed at the end of the group to make sure no one stayed behind. Once we got to the river, we had a blast. The guides did a great job of finding animals hidden in the rocks to show us. The instructions were very clear about what to wear, what to bring, and how wet we would get. I would definitely recommend this trip to others but would warn them the hike can be challenging. And I would definitely go on this trip again, but would get in better physical condition before going.

I would recommend this 1000%. Best tour guide and to ride the horses on the Beach breathtaking. A must do if you go to Puerto Rico. Everyone was so nice at Tropical trail rides.

Great experience! Beautiful beach and experience guides who were very helpful. In the description it say you can swim during your break but that wasn’t really possible. But that didn’t take away from how wonderful the ride was.

Genuinely the most beautiful experience I've had yet. Edgar was amazing and so kind, the views were spectacular, and the photos even better!! Definitely recommend but be sure you can swim and hike as some parts are a bit physically demanding.

Shmuel and Edgar are 10/10 tour guides! You absolutely cannot go wrong with this adventure!*plus size friendly!! It’s CHALLENGING but DOABLE! on the other side of fear is adventure!

I'm glad that I was able to experience this adventure with my family. I have lots of videos and pictures of this tour to remember for life. Great adventure at a great price! Definitely a must do experience while visiting the island.

My kids loved it. Great instruction, great trails, great staff, and beautiful trained horses. Most of the time they just followed one another with little effort. Of course you had the occasional hungry one trying to stop along the way for a quick bite. We did the 330pm ride, and then took a short drive over to Crash boat beach afterward to watch the sunset. One of my kids got a little motion sick at the end of the horse ride, but Alicia and Angel helped her right away. All was good and great attention to safety. Do it if you want to see the beautiful beach and lush green trails.

10/10 experience, our tour guide was javier and he was the best had so much fun!!!

What an amazing experience! You’ll definitely get your steps in, but the pace is not rushed, the water is refreshing, the guides are funny, informative, and kind - and the scenery simply stunning. Definitely book this - it’s a lovely time, great break from the beach and city, and will easily be the one thing my teens remember the most fondly from this trip.

Our tour guide was Sean and it ended up just being our group with him which made it a very personalized experience. Sean was very knowledgeable about the history of Puerto Rico and provided us that information on the drive out to our first stop. He took amazing pictures of our group at various spots. He made getting in and out of the cave much easier than I read about telling us exactly where to put our hands and feet. He assisted us with getting to the various cave jumping experiences and giving us solid direction on how to jump. He is quite the dare devil, so if you get him for your tour expect some crazy cliff jumping from him. He then took us to get lunch and helped us order our food. Amazing day with an amazing tour guide. Thanks again Sean for the best tour in Puerto Rico.

We absolutely loved this tour!!! Our guide Kenyon was incredibly kind, knowledgable, and personable. It was great to spend some time outside of San Juan and see more of the island, which was breathtaking (especially the sea arches). Cueva del Indio was physically challenging, and the climb into the cave had us all a little scared, but our guide helped us boulder our way through the opening safely. Be mindful that a fear of heights or tight spaces might make this first leg of the tour difficult, but if you can get past it the end result is absolutely worth it. Both caves were exceptionally beautiful and the day was like nothing we had ever experienced before. Kenyon took some amazing photos for us, we were very impressed! It was truly unforgettable and we highly recommend it! Be sure to wear shoes that are comfortable for both rock climbing and swimming (water shoes would be the best if you have them). Bring snacks if you can!

We booked for 6 kids and 6 adults including my father with dementia and mobility issues. Tania was accommodating and communicative from the start. She asked about any special interests from our group and made it a point to include a special dancing event for my sister. She made plans for logistics including easy restroom breaks/access and managed the traffic in San Juan expeditiously yet safely. She was also very patient with my father and sat with him while we visited the Castillo San Felipe del Morro and even allowed my mother time to visit the Totem Telurico. It's very clear that Tania is just a loving person and she really exemplified the personality that is Puerto Rico!

Great way to see all the highlights of Old San Juan in the limited time available on a cruise. My wife isn’t able to walk well and it’s so hot & humid that being able to get around in an air conditioned vehicle while learning about the sites was well worth it .
