By Mary Burns


You are probably on this article right now because there is a big chance that you are planning a tropical vacation sometime in the near future. A few of your colleagues may have suggested to you that you try out some Puerto Rico guided tours when you do decide. This seems like a good idea and you are all for it. Prior to you jumping right in and making a rush decision, it may be a good idea that you finish reading this article first.

Prior to any binding and lasting commitment you want to make, then it is a good idea to make a checklist first. As this is a decision that will involve spending money then having a checklist is a good idea. A checklist will assist in keeping track of important things and also serves as a reminder.

First and foremost you must make sure that all your travel documents are in order, especially where passports are concerned. Make sure that you have the necessary visa to enter the country and that your passport has at least more than six months validity during your trip. In addition, always check your bookings and reconfirm in advance so you will not have any issues later on.

As you will be partaking of guided tours while on the island, you most likely will be dealing with tour operating companies and outfits. Just make sure that these operators and outfits that you are dealing with have the proper accreditation and also permits from their respective government bodies or authorities. Going for a legal operator serves to protect you in the long run should something go wrong while the tour is ongoing.

The next thing to look at when choosing a guided tour is the quality of the tour guide also. The tour guide must not only be presentable and well groomed, but be well informed as well. He or she must have impeccable skills in English as well, as this will be the general language spoken by most tourists the world over.

Should you really wish to push through with taking guided tours in Puerto Rico, there are two general categories to choose from. One will be located mostly in the city and urban areas to give you a taste of local cultural, historical and commercial activity. The other category will involve you going out into the rural areas and partake more of the natural wonders that the country has to offer. Whatever your poison just make sure you allot enough time for it.

You should also look at overall tour price as a determinant in your final decision. Price s in general will be a bit cheaper in bigger and consolidated groups as compared to smaller and more customized group packages. Also what will determine will depend on what season and time of the year that you go on as well as overall demand and supply conditions.

And of course for the final part of your checklist is what to bring. Do pack light and bring only light clothes made of cotton and breathable material, for you will be in a tropical country after all. Also make sure you bring a lot of water for your tours as well as plenty of sunblock and mosquito lotion if you are able.
