Media Review

 

Tour survey answers:   The tour guides meet us on time at the Pier.  They were dressed with a neat and clean uniform.  We were attended by courteous and cheerful tour guides.  Debbie and Gabriela provided enough information and answered our questions to our satisfaction.  They also took the extra step to satisfy our needs and showed us the rest stops.  The walking and bus tour were entertaining and we enjoyed the route taken on the tour.  The drivers were courteous and operated the bus with caution. The the bus ride was comfortable, clean, and we could clearly hear the tour guide's voice and music over the speakers.  The tour ended at the airport and on time. Everything was great! Cooky Kraus, The Travel Gallery, January 16, 2007 - Legends of San Juan with transfer from Pier to airport to a group of 56


Hey Debbie -  I wanted to tell you how great everyone thought the tour was.  They kept asking me where I found you at....   They couldn't say enough good things about you and the tour.  Lisa Rimlinger, Liberty Travel Agent - PA Crown Princess Dec 9, 2006 Legends of San Juan group tour with transfer services from Pier to airport  CLICK TO SEE LISA'S REVIEW WITH PICTURES


Posted on TripAdvisor by "explorerOmaha" - January 31, 2007
Our group of 15 cruised the Caribbean in December 2006. We booked a walking tour through Legends of Puerto Rico for our stop in San Juan. Our experience was excellent- the guide met us at the pier and treated us to an informative and complete walking tour of Old San Juan. At $30 per person, it was an affordable alternative to excursions offered by the cruise line. I would highly recommend this company.


Debbie was great, she told s lots of stories and  fine tuned the tour to meet our particular needs.  She even took our very slow walkers in stride/ hanks for a great time.  Diane Krasnow, IL, December 27, 2006,  Hotel guests family of 12


Debbie is very knowledgeable and it was like being with family. She made me feel like I had known her for a long time. She made the tour fun and had the answers to all our questions. Debbie is one of those people that did not miss her calling. She is definitely doing what she enjoys and it shows.  Nancy Mieses, New York, August 20, 2005, Hotel guests.

"We had a  wonderful time with Debbie.  Her tour was well organized, informative, and lots of fun. This was an outstanding introduction to Old San Juan, and it was enjoyed by wide range of ages (5 - 70).  Debbie was extremely delightful and so very well informed!  It also seemed that the rest stops and chances to sit down came at just the right times, and we also enjoyed the Limbers (sp?) or "Lindbergs."  Anne and Glenn Horner, USA - March 27, 2004 - Hotel guests.

What's New: An Online Update for Frommer's Puerto Rico

Legends of Puerto Rico (tel. 787/605-9060; www.legendsofpr.com), is giving some of the best island tours-informative, varied, and entertaining. Walking tours, for example, take in world heritage sites in the once fortified Old Town or else a night walk where a guide entertains with local legends. These tours cost $30 to $38.

Many other island tours are offered, including a coffee plantation tour taking you up into the mountains 2,500 feet above sea level. Other tours explore the lushest parts of the island, including the Karst Country with Puerto Rico's largest hiking trail system; El Yunque (the rain forest), and a mangrove forest near the beach. Private tours can also be designed for individuals or groups.
