If you only have one day in Puerto Rico, make sure you spend it with Bucket List tours. The bioluminescence bay was a once in a lifetime experience and the bay in Paguera is the only one in the world you can swim in safely. We have what should be the eighth natural wonder of the world in the United States and no one even knows. As if that wasn’t enough, it wouldn’t have been the same without Carlos and Sebastian. Carlos was not only able to provide us with wonderful history about Puerto Rico and it’s path to US Territory but also valuable insight into the history as someone who served in the US military. Thank you so much… You really do provide bucket list tours! (This may sound hyperbolic but I promise it’s true!)

Carlos was amazing! We enjoyed learning about Puerto Rico. He even stopped in Ponce to show us a really neat museum. The vehicle was nice and comfortable. Since it as just my spouse and I, it was really personal. The boat excursion was fantastic! From providing snorkel gear to attracting large carp, it was everything we hoped for!

The highlight of the trip was the bioluminescent cove. It was unlike anything I have ever seen before! We even went under the boat for more darkness to see better—that was so cool! Our captain even took some photos of us in the water!

The restaurant for dinner was delicious. We even ordered our food ahead of time so we didn’t have to wait for food to be ready.

It is obvious just how passionate Carlos is about giving these tours. Every detail was thought out and we could just enjoy ourselves. He was a fantastic guide and we genuinely enjoyed talking with him.

If I ever need another tour in Puerto Rico, I will be a repeat customer!

We had a blast! Snorkeling was amazing. The kids had a great time seeing all the different fish. The sunset was absolutely beautiful. But by far the most amazing part was swimming around in the bio bay. The pictures you see online are cool but they do not do it justice. Being able to swim in the water, as it sparkles all around you was just so cool. Definitely worth doing.
All along the way, Carlos was super attentive and patient with me, my wife, and our 2 kids. First off, he showed up exactly when he said he would, which in my experience is not all that common. He was very courteous and went out of his way to make sure we were all having a great time.
Carlos, thank you for making this experience one we will all remember.

Great experience with Carlos and Marcos. It was a wonder way to see other parts of the island. The snorkeling at sunset was beautiful and then the bio bay was truly a once in a lifetime experience. Seeing the organisms glitter under the starry sky was amazing! You will not regret this experience!

We were a group of 11 that went on this trip after a business conference. Carlos custom designed a day trip for us based on our interests- it was a 16 hour day trip!! We started out with a few spectacular waterfalls- drove through Ponce and ended up snorkeling in La Pargera and then dipping into the bio bay.

Carlos and his son Marcos were patient - kind and super knowledgable. The group was actually blown away by Marcos who shared his gifts eagerly with the team. The day flew by and we all enjoyed connecting and being connected to the amazing landscapes and experiences along the way.

The day was topped off with dinner at a hand picked restaurant at La Pargera. We arrived back exhausted and invigorated!

Thank you Carlos and Marcos for an amazing day!

The tour was great. Carlos was our guide - he was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. He texted us beforehand to confirm, and promptly answered a couple questions that we had. He was on time with a nice big van that fit our party nicely. It was about a 2.5h drive on the way there, and we got to stop on the way to stretch our legs and get coffee. He told us what to look for along the way too!
Snorkeling was fun. The boat was big enough for our family, plus our guide, and the boat captain. The water was clear and you could easily see the bottom. We saw some fish and sea urchins. Part of our group even saw a stingray! They provided the snorkel equipment.
The sunset was gorgeous and I wish I would’ve taken more pictures.
Once it was dark, we took the boat about 5-10 minutes into a bay to see the bioluminescence. They provided us with swim noodles and we swam in the super warm water while we watched it light up around us. We had more than enough time to enjoy it before heading back.
Carlos even found us a shower so we could rinse off and change before heading back, which was amazing.
Even on the way back, Carlos still made a few quick detours to show us a few things.
Overall it was a wonderful tour and we’re very happy we did the private tour. The drive is long, but we were glad that we didn’t have to do it ourselves! It’s more than worth the experience to see a new part of the island and have the ability to swim in the bio bay. We’re very appreciative that we met Carlos & did this tour. Thank you!!
