“Fantastic introduction to the city. The guides were enthusiastic and fun. I had a fantastic night discovering the city and some bars before settling in a salsa dance club where the guides patiently taught me the moves. I didnt dance well but but i had alot of fun, the guides set me me up with dance partners in an attempt to help me get out of my comfort zone but i ended up dancing with the guides most of the night because that was comfortable for me. They also stayed with me until the end to ensure i got home safe. Truly excellent night.”

“My husband and I ended up on a private tour with a lovely young guide. We were really only interested in the street salsa locations so that's where we went, and we skipped the clubs. Our guide called for and paid for an Uber to go from one location to another The spectacle of so many people was amazing! Definitely, a must see! Our guide took such good care of us, guiding us through the crowds. There were lots of food and beverage sellers, including many different types of alcohol.”

Suzanna was our guide and brought us to lots of different place to know more about salsa history : music, singer, dance and instruments. She passed to us her passion of salsa music and the sense of community that music brings. I recommend.”
