April and Old San Juan

Published on Apr, 2025

Frank our guide was awesome. Very knowledgeable and fluent in English and Spanish. Managed to speak English to us clearly and quickly and Spanish to this other group that was traveling with us. Our 10 year old twins boy and a girl thought, "it was very very good!!"

Great way to start our vacation

Published on Apr, 2025

This was a fantastic tour of Old San Juan. Frankie was passionate about the history and culture of Puerto Rico. He was thoughtful about the path we took to explore the city. Starting early was the right time to avoid the big crowds and the heat.

Viejo San Juan

Published on Oct, 2024

We started taking walking tours of cities about a year ago. I had lived in Puerto Rico 30 years ago, but wanted to see old San Juan with fresh eyes. Our guide, Francisco, was born and raised in Puerto Rico and has been guiding tourist for nine years. He was funny and engaging. He was extremely knowledgeable about the history of Old San Juan as well as all of Puerto Rico. He was willing to answer questions about recent experiences and current events in Puerto Rico. The tour itself is amazing. San Juan has been in existence for nearly 500 years with one of the best preserved fortresses that is well-maintained by the US national park services. The old city itself is a testament to the efforts to preserve history and is rich with history.
