Phenomenal! Best Guide in Puerto Rico!

Reviewed March 18, 2014

Puerto Rico cannot ask for a better tour guide! The "island of enchantment" really came out with Hector's expertise, knowledge, and experience. We found "Snorkel Puerto Rico" in the Travel and Explore booklet last minute after plans/transportation fell through at the very end of our trip. Called the number and everything fell into place: Scheduling and logistics was easy. We were able to meet him right in Old San Juan and he took us to see some beautiful sealife and coral formations, with equipment provided by Hector. He ensured we knew how to keep the goggles clean and breathing tube free of water, continuously made sure we weren't too tired (and brings a boogie board just in case) and is always conscious of our overall safety. He even provided advice on a surf shop to visit if we wanted/needed to rent underwater camera cases. In the Tour and Explore book he even has a discount which he will take pictures or video tape the excursion for you. His Bio is right, he knows every nook and cranny of the island. Mention to him what you want to do or see and he has a spot to take you. Waterfalls, surf spots & lessons, snorkeling, you name it - he knows it and be sure you have a phenomenal experience. Hector is a genuine character and absolutely loves nature. His rates are much better than a commercial tour company and he suits the excursion for the size of the group. I definately have a new friend in Puerto Rico after meeting Hector!

hector was the greatest tour guide i've ever had. i have been on multiple boat trips and this trip was the funnest for me. he not only gave us insight to the background of everywhere we went, but he also made his best effort to show everyone on the boat the time of their lives. he was super friendly and adventurous. next time i'm in puerto rico, there is no other boat i'd rather go on. can't wait!
