Intimate Experience With A Culturally Significant Rum - We did both the Barcardi and Ron del Barrilito tours. This one was more intimate and you get to see more of the facilities and historical house up close in person. Would recommend if you have time to visit both for different and unique experiences.

A must do in San Juan - We absolutely loved the tour with Dennis. He understood the history of the place and time. We saw the family hacienda, cask storage, bottling and more. I highly recommend going for this tour.

Relaxed, Interesting and Tasty Historical Tour - We made a last-minute decision to join the last tour of the day and were so glad we did! The staff at the distillery were very gracious and we were able to arrive, relax and even enjoy a cocktail from the bar before starting. The tour group size was ideal and the property was charming. It was so interesting to hear the stories of how it all began with the little barrel of rum! Our tour guide Rogelio was quite animated and excited about all the interesting stories of the company's past and eager to shart with us one of the four storage warehouses with thousands of barrels of rum dating back to 1952 (the oldest). Sampling the rum and purchasing some to take home topped off the evening.

A great tour! - Marjorie our tour guide was very enthusiastic, friendly and knowledgeable. What made this tour good is that it felt very personable, rustic, and familiar. We did not have to do a lot of walking and it was a good mix of history, family lore, and rum!
