Went with my wife and learned a lot about the city. Wear comfortable shoes, there was a lot of walking but well worth it.
Thank you very much for this nice review. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed all of the history of Old San Juan
Hubby and I booked a last minute, late afternoon Old San Juan walking tour. Charles was our guide. He was terrific. Interesting and educational, without being professorial. Two hours, relaxed pace, plenty of photo ops. I’m not usually a fan of guided tours. I prefer to just take off and explore on my own. But I’m glad I made an exception for this one. If you want to see the sights and get a better understanding of where you are, I’d definitely recommend it!
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts regarding your recent Old San Juan walking tour. Charles is a very knowledgeable Tour Guide and eager to share.
