Highly recommend this walking tour. Learned a great deal about Old San Juan. Maria was a great tour guide. Very enthusiastic about telling us the history and culture of San Juan. Even gave us a recommendation for a local restaurant for lunch.

This was an amazing tour focusing on the military history of San Juan but also the people and the different empires which occupied San Juan through different centuries. We learned about the architecture, the history, and the city. Antonio was an amazing tour guide and I would recommend him to anyone! Particularly those who want to learn about history. He is a wealth of knowledge and I would book him to tour us through the entire island privately if we could.

Melanie was the best guide! She was kind, knowledgeable, and did an excellent job navigating our group under the scorching sun in a way that was safe and comfortable. I really appreciated her perspective as a native Boricua and loved learning with her.
