Wow and wow... Yamile does it again! My husband and I met Yamile back in March 2021 when we had the pleasure of doing a private excursion while visiting Puerto Rico. Well, we had the opportunity to visit San Juan again in December 2021, on a cruise port of call, and this time we booked a private excursion for our family of eight. Yamile helped me in planning the perfect excursion that accommodated everyone in the group, including my 69-year-old aunt. Yamile's bubbly personality and her sheer love for Puerto Rico shines when she is providing the tour. We visited the Rum Factory, Loiza, participated in a Bomba dancing class, and then ended with Yamile taking us to my husband and I favorite restaurant. I have certainly adopted Yamile as my prima and I highly recommend that you take an excursion with her when you are visiting Puerto Rico.
From the minute we met Yamile we truly felt like we had known each other for years. She took great care of us and did an amazing job making sure we had fun while also learning the history of San Juan. Would absolutely recommend this tour!
Amazing!!! Do not sleep on this tour!!! Yamile made us feel very comfortable, like family. She is a native Puerto Rican, Full of personality, energy, and knowledge, Ready to share everything she knows about Puerto Rico. She picked us up in an air-conditioned van drove us to various land marks of San Juan, Old San Juan, the Forts, The Capital, the Princess Prison, you name it saw it. We hopped off the van & walked thru the streets of Old San Juan, while she told the history of the town. We had Piña colada‘s at the world famous Barrachina restaurant. They did not disappoint! The second part of the tour included lunch at an amazing Puerto Rican restaurant. And tour of Loiza. This beachside town was full of African history and culture. We learned so much. We visited an art gallery and learned how to Bomba Dance on one of the small beaches, with Afro-Latin conga drummers. Thank you Yamile for a great tour. Our family will always remember the experience. You’re a great dancer too!
