Il nostro Interprete Storico Certificato, vestito con un Bianco Spagnolo Uniforme coloniale, incontrerete il vostro partito accanto alla statua di Cristoforo Colombo, in Plaza Colon. Qui, scoperta dell'isola e un'introduzione agli abitanti indigeni locali, i Tainos saranno discussi
Al Castillo San Felipe Del Morro, saremo qui più o meno per 60 minuti, a discutere della storia della Cittadella, e ammirare i maestosi panorami che offre. El Morro è una massiccia fortificazione a 6 livelli. Senza rinunciare a molto, è assolutamente mozzafiato.

Uncle J was great! Kind, knowledgeable, funny, and enjoyable to be around. What else would you want from a tour guide?!
Really enjoyed all that we learned with uncle J about the history of Puerto Rico. He is very passionate about it. Definitely worth it if you wanna learn about the history of the Puerto Rican people and the forts.
My daughter and I had a great time. Uncle J was very knowledgeable. He made fun learning about history.
Uncle J was AWESOME! When the tour started it was just my husband and I (the others were delayed) so we got to ask tons of questions and Uncle J had all the answers! I learned a ton of stuff that my husband evidently already knew. Being able to talk to Uncle J about all the 'unknown' facts made my husbands day. After the tour officially ended, Uncle J walked us back to our starting point and went over several more interesting sights in San Juan, even recommending a few restaurants for us to end our day. If you are looking for a great, fun and knowledgeable tour, this is it. We will take it again next time we are there. I gave 5 stars because 100 was not an option!
Hi Nicole Gave me great pleasure showing you guys my little island with a big heart. I really appreciated the nice sentiments, but when you have “living castles” at your disposal, its an easy task. Until we meet again! uncle j
Some choose to wander the castles , but a guided tour greatly outweighs wandering aimlessly, the historical facts that uncle jay provides while touring both castles takes you back to a time where pirates & life & sea were the norm.

hi Jeff im glad you enjoyed walking the forts of Old san juan. i also appreciated your engagement best of luck
Uncle J gave us one of the most memorable days of our entire trip. He took us on a walking tour of the two iconic forts in Old San Juan — Castillo San Felipe del Morro and Castillo San Cristóbal — and brought them to life with a depth of knowledge that only someone who truly loves this island could share. He didn’t just explain the history; he told the story of these places — their purpose, their battles, their role in shaping Puerto Rico. Every stop came with rich context, fascinating details, and that extra bit of flavor that made us feel like we were seeing the forts through the eyes of someone who grew up with them. Beyond being an incredible guide, Uncle J is simply a good soul. Warm, patient, funny, and genuinely invested in making sure everyone has a great time. You can feel his pride in the island and its history, and it’s contagious. It was a wonderful day — the kind you remember long after the trip is over. If you’re visiting Old San Juan, do yourself a favor and book a tour with Uncle J. You’ll walk away with new knowledge, great memories, and a deeper appreciation for Puerto Rico.
Had a wonderful time with Uncle J. He was knowledgeable and kept the tour very interesting. Would recommend to any that is visiting the island.
