5.00Our walking tour of Old San Juan was fantastic. Our guide was friendly, engaging, and shared a wealth of historical insight and local knowledge throughout the experience. We took the tour in the morning during May, and temperatures warmed up quickly, so I would recommend booking an earlier session if you are sensitive to the heat. It is also much easier to take an Uber or taxi to the meeting location, as parking in the area can be very challenging. Be sure to bring a hat, water, and sunscreen. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in learning more about the history and culture of the area they are visiting.
