• Casa Bacardi Rum Distillery Tour prior to Caribbean Cruise - Founder’s Tour was the Best!

  Here on vacation prior to our Caribbean Cruise and decided to take a Bacardi Rum Tour. Picked the Founder’s Experience for $125 per person. While making the reservation make sure to elect the “A Dinner that Honors the Legacy”. If not you’ll miss a great dinner at the “ La Central by Mario Pagan, 250 Convention Boulevard, San Juan, PR 00907” (another review to read). As you drive up to Casa Bacardi the gate guard will ask you for your reservation information. Then you will be able to park your vehicle in the visitors lot. You walk up to check in at the visitor’s center and receive a token for a free Daiquiri or Coke. If you want something else to drink such as a Pina Colada then it’s about $15 USD. They do have a small food bar with a small selection of food. Then you wait for the tour to start. The Founder’s Tour was excellent. Was able to see/learn partially of the distillery process and their original Barrel House. The Founder’s Lounge where the Bacardi Tasting was very modern but classic. The Five Flutes of Rum was a learning experience and very tasty! Our guide (Astella) was so knowledgeable and fun!!! The Founder’s Group for the tour is only 12 people so book early…was worth it!!! Their top premium Rum “Casa BACARDÍ Special Reserve” is $180 USD and can only be purchased at the distillery. $200 USD if you want the bottle laser engraved. You can drive your vehicle there or take a shuttle / ferry from Old San Juan if you preferred. Overall the tour lasted two hours and worth every bit of it ! Remember to have shoes that cover your toes or you can’t enter the barrel house.

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

• Bacardi Tasting in P.R.

  The tasting consists of 4 types of rum, a tour of the Bacardi campus, and a history of the Bacardi brand. Learning about the history was nice. The campus tour is fairly short. Unfortunately the tour just leaves you wanting a little something more. The tour guides are great. They tell the history with a flair and personality that keeps you engaged and entertained. The mixology class is the better choice.

• Great tasting tour.

  We enjoyed learning the history of Bacardi and the technique of how to swirl the glass and nose to smell the ingredients. My favorite was the third rum. My husband liked the last rum.

  We took the 4 pm tour and were very disappointed. The whole tour was from a tram and it was too late on the day to see much going on. The testing was fun, but they could have shown some video of behind the scenes

  We had huge travel delays and issues with our Airbnb where we had to check out immediately upon arrival and find a new place to say because we had no running water in that we missed our reservation for the tour. Casa Bacardi AND Viator made it extremely difficult for us as they will not refund or offer to reschedule. We have lost $400 dollars. Will never book with Viator or this rum tour again. Will let my family and friends know too so they can choose elsewhere to book their tours.

• Awesome experience
