The tour was great and Javier was amazing! It’s a bit of drive to the waterfall and the petroglyph rock so it was great to have such a great guide take us on this private tour. Javier is also an archeologist so his insights made the tour so much more enjoyable.
Highly recommend this tour, it was worth every penny.

Javier is extremely knowledgeable. I learned so much about the history of Puerto Rico and its indigenous people and their customs. We saw petraglyphics, waterfalls and more. Can’t recommend this enough!
