Great lesson in history while getting your steps in - JC was very knowledgeable about old San Juan. He was also very mindful, keeping everyone’s comfort in mind by finding breeze spots for respite from the afternoon summer heat, and keeping everyone in the group together. I would highly recommend giving this tour a try!

He was very knowledgeable, personable, and a excellent tour guide. This tour is not for those who have trouble walking long distances. I would highly recommend this tour and Juan as your tour guide.

The Old San Juan district is a must-visit, with its colorful colonial buildings, cobblestone streets, and historic forts like El Morro and San Cristóbal.

Find the wind, history and sights of an amazing city - Take an incredible tour of Old San Juan! Juan Carlos walked us through the interesting history, local culture, impressive architecture, and found the wind to cool us off during a warm Puerto Rico morning. The two hours flew by so quickly, even in the heat and provided a fabulous way to spend the morning. We highly recommend this tour!
