San Juan walking tour
I think the lady's name was Alexia and she was brilliant. She spoke in English and Spanish, and I am English but it was still very interesting and very engaging. I would definitely recommend it.

I'd do it again!
The tour was fun, informative and not too long. Alexia was very nice, knowledgeable and was able to answer every question. The price of the tour was well worth it. The scenery was just beautiful and the other people on the tour were great too. She was able to give us recommendations of local cafes to eat at. 10/10
