Transportation
If you are staying in the Luquillo area, it should be easy to get an Uber to & from the airport to your lodging. However, for transportation for any additional excursions, we strongly suggest renting a car or using a local driving service. If you are staying outside of Luquillo & are traveling there just for the event, we also recommend renting a car or using a local driving service. Your hotel or Airbnb host should be able to point you to additional resources.
Local Driving Service (Luquillo area) - Ali - (787) 435-9666
We use Ali’s services often, so he has expressed that he’s willing to do group rates for folk’s who coordinate with him in advance. There are many people traveling to Puerto Rico for this event, so if you are interested in using his services at all, call him ASAP to discuss options & itinerary. Tell him you’re traveling to Puerto Rico for Niambi’s annual event.

Additional Excursions
If you are staying in Puerto Rico for long enough, I strongly suggest taking time for some excursions! The island is breathtaking and there’s so many amazing things to do! If you want to explore local cuisine, tour the rainforest, or even spend a day on a private boat, I personally recommend booking a tour on Airbnb Experiences. They have everything! We also recommend surfing lessons with Surfing Connection PR — tell them Niambi sent you!
