This is a great experience if you want to take an easy stroll of Old San Juan at sunset while learning a thing or two about the city.

5.00Best tour of our whole trip! Our tour guide, Jorge, was fantastic - informative, friendly, humorous, helpful. He engaged us in conversation and was extremely knowledgeable when we pelted him with random questions. We enjoyed the walk, the weather was beautiful, and the view stunning. I feel like I understand San Juan's history so much better now. So glad we booked this tour.

5.00We did the tour with our kids (8 and 9) and loved it. The timing was perfect, ending right at sunset, and the cooler evening weather made it much more comfortable. The history was fascinating, especially learning it in the exact places where it happened. Our guide Adrian was friendly and engaging, and even kept our kids interested. The walking pace was slower than we’re used to, but that made it great for sightseeing, photos, and accessible for just about everyone. Highly recommend!
