Traditional tours of “Viejo San Juan” – the historic and mystical colonial city – are informative but do not take you beyond the tourist experience.  However, Atabey Tours are committed to taking you far beyond the realms of the tourist experience and welcome you into their home.  Atabey are the only local guides living within the fortified walls which have stood for over 400 years guarding the sacred city, which was fought over by British pirates, Dutch, Spanish and other European powers who wanted control of this “gateway to the Caribbean and the Americas”. 
 
Offering a wide range of tour options – Atabey will allow you to discover Puerto Rico as the locals do.  Swimming or Surf in your very own isolated white sand beach followed by a secluded, pristine river of Eden to wash away the layer of salt on your skin; hiking through lush rain forest jungle on the way to your prized destination; gaping caves that reveal epic panoramas below; limestone canyons; Taíno indian petroglyphs; cliffs overlooking azure Caribbean water; Salsa and Afro-Puerto Rican music; Delicious native Specialties for the true Foodies and much more than you can imagine.
 
Natives of Puerto Rico, Andrés and Ale have been exploring the island for all their lives and sharing their spectacular findings with international visitors.  They are close friends with many of the ecotourism operators in the island and hope to work together in this field in order to reveal/share and preserve the sacred wonders of Puerto Rico.  Their vast experience with local and international ecotourism practices paved the way for the creation of Atabey Tours! The company strives to be the leader in ecotourism in Puerto Rico by combining expertise in the island’s natural gifts along with an in-depth international experience in the field of ecotourism.
 
Atabey Tours
 
The company was founded by Andrés Carrero and Ale Hertell after a series of ecotourism ventures in Puerto Rico and abroad.  They believe every visitor who comes to Puerto Rico has their own interests and vision as to what their dream vacation/adventure should be.  Therefore, they are the only tourism company in Puerto Rico that offers a free consultation (via email, phone or in person) to get to know your specific needs and interests in order to create a custom-made tour designed to exceed your dreams.
 
Atabey Tours are COMPLETELY committed to preserving their source of life by sharing the unique natural miracles of this island in a responsible manner.  Besides abiding by the LEAVE NO TRACE principle, they make a conscious effort to volunteer in clean-ups.  Furthermore, in an effort to reverse the effects of global warming, Atabey offset ALL their carbon emissions related to the transportation services from each tour (and personal travels) by donating a percentage of proceeds to CarbonFund, supporting various reforestation projects.
