Afternoon City Tour
Many groups elect to see Old San Juan in the afternoon and segue on to cocktails and an evening affair with a late return to the hotel. This is a great way to get “more bang for your buck” by minimiz-ing transfer time and cost into San Juan for little more than the cost of a basic City Tour.
See modern San Juan as you drive in air-conditioned comfort through the areas of Isla Verde, Con-dado, past Fort San Gerónimo and on into Old San Juan, one of the most beautiful old cities in the New World. Your first stop is for a short visit to Fort San Cristobal, a mainstay of the San Juan fortification system, from which the Spanish successfully defended their city from British and Dutch attacks as well as frequent assaults from various and sundry pirates. Be sure to watch their historical video on the area. In addition, search out the dungeon where there is centuries-old graffiti representing images of Spanish galleons drawn on the walls. As you continue your drive through the old city, you’ll see the beautiful 17th century Spanish ironwork on the restored homes and note the blue-black glazed cobblestones that were brought to San Juan as ballast for the Spanish galleons, and were used to surface the narrow streets of the Old City.
