So beautiful. So Caribbean. Even the BF who is from the Caribbean felt at home here, and loved how gorgeous it is. These several blocks are right on the ocean. With sweeping views and waves crashing on the shore. There are 2 forts that bookend the area and you can tour these old forts. I love history, so these forts... more

I enjoy walking around Old San Juan especially on an escorted tour. So rich in history from the El Convento Hotel to El Morro. So interesting from the narrowest building in the world to the statues dedicated to the native peoples. more

We only spent two days in Old San Juan, but what a wonderful time we had. We did as others and walked all over the place. A car would only complicate things because there's no place to park and the streets are narrow. Half the fun is walking the old cobblestone streets and peeking into shops and cafes and talking... more

We got off our cruise ship and just walked and walked and walked all around Old San Juan. Very picturesque, clean, tons of shops to browse, places to eat. Would love to go back and explore more of Puerto Rico. Old San Juan is a magical place with lots of old world charm. more

There was not enough time to see everything in a 5 day 4 night trip. This place is just beautiful. They are so proud and so knowledgable about their cultures. The Hotel arranged a Private Van Tour for our group. The cemetary was beautiful and whole town was amazing! You must see their capital while there it is ALL MARBLE,... more

We were recently in Old San Juan. We got off the ship and took a taxi up to El Morro. That was ok….kind of boring and it was very hot so we only stayed about a half hour. We then walked down through the streets of Old San Juan and stopped off in a little café called Café Bohemia and... more
