“Carola was very friendly, funny, and informative. Wear good shoes, even though there are plenty of stops/breaks. The streets and sidewalks have bumps, holes, and cracks.

Explore Santurce street art, Afro-Puerto Rican culture, Samuel Lind’s studio, local food, and beachside painting on this private San Juan tour.
“This was my must do tour after reading the description and the raving 5 star reviews on the website. I was VERY disappointed. In a nut shell, the tour differs significantly from the description. There was no cooking lesson with tasting and the artist wasn't home for the studio tour. The guided art tour was underwhelming. It did not include my favorite photos from the website and the tour guide had limited art knowledge. Lastly, I didn't do the paint and sip as the tour ran long (4.5 w/o the paint and sip) and I didn't want to spend more time on that portion. Note: I did contact the tour…”
