About

Traveling has always been one of my greatest passions, deeply rooted in the beauty of my enchanted island Puerto Rico. From majestic mountains and the deep blue ocean to serene white-sand beaches, my love for the outdoors has shaped my journey through the years. I’ve explored the heart and much of the Mediterranean coast of Spain, and have had the privilege of visiting multiple times incredible places in Europe like Athens, Rome, Venice  and my sister island in the Caribbean Dominican Republic — each destination offering its own unique lessons and experiences. Living between Puerto Rico, and Florida has further deepened my appreciation for ocean, nature, and, of course, food. Yes, I’m a proud foodie.

As a Tour Director, Local Expert, and Naturalist, sharing the wonders of the world with others is truly my passion. I believe that travel is more than just visiting new places — it’s about connecting with people, embracing new perspectives, and finding meaning in every experience. Even the smallest moments can leave a lasting impression, inspiring us to bring those lessons back into our everyday lives. I’m deeply passionate about creating these connections, blending knowledge with an appreciation for the beauty of our planet.

ZOYA, from San Francisco: Alberto is an outstanding tour guide—knowledgeable, engaging, and personable. His stories brought Cuban history to life, weaving together the country’s past, immigration influences, and the realities of everyday life in Cuba. He also shared great local recommendations for authentic restaurants, unique shops, and the best places to buy cigars.
