AdvenTours » Travel Agencies

In October, 1992, Excursiones Guariquén was born
in the western coast of Puerto Rico. We chose the
word “guariquén” because in Arawak language it
means “look” or “come here and see”.

our commitment with the region gained us islandwide reputation with the
creation of “La Ruta del Café” and birding trips, which we have been
offering since 1992.

Pioneers in this region, the initial objective of our
company was the development of a new and
responsible way of doing tourism towards the
exploring and recognition of the natural history of our
area and our Taíno roots. We started catering the
needs of locals with a complete program of tours and
expeditions departing from Mayagüez. Nevertheless,

One year later, AdvenTours was born in 1993 as a result of the requests we
had for soft adventure tours from international travelers. We kept our
operation small to guarantee the quality of our service, catering individuals
and small groups.

We expanded our wings in 1997 offering our tour guide service to the hotels
located from San Juan to Fajardo. In 2001, we established a partnership
with the US Forest Service and by 2002 we opened a seasonal office in
Luquillo in order to offer night hikes at El Yunque. A complete line of
EcoYoga Tours was introduced.

We were recognized in 2003 by United Who´s Who.

As part of our corporate social responsibility, in 2007 we started training our
partners in the east region. With a collaborative agreement between APIE
and the University of Puerto Rico, local residents of the Northeastern
Ecological Corridor were certified in heritage interpretive techniques, a
special training for Outdoor Adventure Kayak Guides.

Twenty two years later, our initial objective is still alive, to offer a high
quality service on all our personalized tours.
