Our experience with pineapple Ben, young Mr. Duenas (sorry forgot his name) and the Captain made this experience extremely memorable. I am of Chamorro descent, but have lived stateside since the age of 6. During the visit, we have explored WWII history, revisited the south end of the island where my family comes from, and “The Valley of the Latte”, brought me back to ancient days, the language, the culture 🤗. Extremely interesting, fun, our guides were entertaining and funny. I especially loved the information on how our ancestors lived in the villages, and the tales of our ancient ancestors. Thank you!! Well worth the experience!!!

Great for the kids!This cruise, without a doubt was a success for my son, his wife and 2 children (ages 9/7). Aside from my son visiting Guam when he was much younger, it was the first visit for his wife and children. The children were truly engaged and intrigued with the local stories, crafts and food. It was quite pleasant to watch them interact with the tour guide, presenters and staff. I personally enjoyed it all, but my favorite was the gift shop packed with local arts and crafts. It was a challenge trying to decide which to buy so ended up buying 2. My grandchildren enjoyed the fresh cut up watermelon also. Highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to get a true interactive glimpse of the island culture. We all agree we would definitely take the tour again.

Must do, even for locals! I grew up in Guam but have since moved away. I came back to visit family after 17 years and did the jungle boat cruise with my children and some friends and we all had an amazing time! Miss Rosie was a sweet, informative and patient tour guide and Pineapple Ben was hilarious. The lunch was delicious. We enjoyed every minute.

A Great Cultural Experience at the Valley of the Latte. I’ve done this tour a number of times but this was the first time the tour was given in Chamorro and then translated to English. So I had an even greater cultural experience which I really enjoyed. Tour guide was also very knowledgeable. Note that I was with 3 friends who had never been on the tour, 2 of which were visitors to Guam and who said that the Valley was the best experience they had during their visit here.

A must experience on Guam Exceeded my expectations! Knowledge staff. Ben is terrific and funny!! Lovely cruise and great education on the local area.

Great time. This was an awesome and informative tour. Our tour guide was amazing had lots of information. Pineapple Ben was fantastic as was Kanni.

Great tour! Beautiful and very educational. I highly recommend this tour. The tour guides give a lot of information on plants, animals, and the history. They also had a great sense of humor. It was rainy the day we went, but cleared up. We had a few mosquito bites (not too bad), so maybe put some mosquito spray on beforehand. Might be good to take a water bottle, but they do provide water or ice tea at lunch. Thanks to all the staff, they made it fun.

Great morning activity! Wonderful way to be immersed in experiencing the life of the ancient Chamorro islanders. Beautiful scenery and nicely paced itinerary. Very nice lunch and wonderful tour guides.

The River cruise/excursion was enjoyable and informative. Enjoyed the river cruise while visiting my daughter in Guam. We enjoyed experiencing some authentic Guam history and culture. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend this trip for anyone looking to explore a bit more than Guam’s gorgeous beaches.

One thing that you should do in Guam other than swimming or snorkeling. The guide was kind to the kids and his explanation was useful and hilarious. I get to know more about Chamorro culture and my family really had a good time.

Only on Guam! Don't miss your chance to experience Chamorro culture! Fun, educational, delicious! Our family (including kids 10 and 13 yr old) all thoroughly enjoyed our time at Valley of the Latte! The boat ride was wild - we saw crabs, catfish, and other animals in/near the river. Everyone (even adults) had the opportunity to ride a caribou, my kids loved the animals we met at the village (boat, chickens, goat, deer). I loved the walk through the plants and trees with descriptions of their names and traditional uses. The latte stones in their natural environment really helped you envision how a riverside village looked. The demonstrations on how to open and use a coconut, the many uses of the woven palm leaves, making a fire from "scratch," and giveaway games kept the audience entertained while educating them on Chamorro culture. Lots of laughter and applause! The food was delicious fiesta food. There were unlimited cold drinks. Coco Jay needs a raise for how hard he worked to keep his guests happy! It was so hot and this guy was doing stand up comedy while cracking a coconut open with a rock and kamyu-ing the niyok! Very talented!! Being Chamorro, but raising my family off island, I am so grateful that there are businesses like this in Guam working very hard to educate people on Chamorro culture and passing it down to the next generation in the best possible way, by immersing all our senses in the beauty of the Chamorro culture. You will never forget your time at Valley of the Latte! Si Yu'os Ma'åse' ❤️
