About Javier

I have spent more mornings than I can count in the water off Las Canteras before starting a shift, and I know exactly where the reef breaks calm the sea even when a storm hits the rest of the island. I switched to video calls two years ago and found I like it, because I can angle the camera low over the sand and show the reef line the way a diagram never could. German and English both come naturally after a decade working with visitors here. I keep the pace slow enough that questions have room to land before I move on.

How reviews work

Only travellers who booked and paid through Locals Guide and whose tour took place can leave a review, within 60 days of the tour. Every review is marked "Verified booking". We check reviews before they appear and publish positive and negative ones alike; we remove only reviews that break our rules (insults, personal data, unrelated content). Guides cannot pay for, edit or hide reviews, and ratings are the plain average of all published reviews.
