David Rodriguez was an excellent tour guide. His knowledge of the city was superb, and he was able to answer all of our group's questions. Be aware that there is A LOT of walking, but the pace was fairly comfortable, even for our group of 60-ish retirees. The bottled water, although room temperature, was very welcome. AT the end of the tour, we were all a bit weary, but very glad we took it. Don't forget to give David a nice tip. BTW if you are coming off a cruise ship, the Starbucks is very easy to find. Walk to the end of the pier, cross the street, and continue walking until you get to it.
Great guide

This was our first time visiting Puerto Rico. We heard so much about visiting Old San Juan and getting to know the history behind Puerto Rico. This tour is A MUST! Before we did any other tours, we made sure to learn about San Juan first and got a lot of recommendations on places to visit for the duration of our stay.

David Rodriguez was nice, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. He shared lots of detailed information about Old San Juan, the people, the culture, and the history that was very helpful as we walked the streets. The pace was relaxed and we finished on time. It was a great experience. We would definitely recommend David to others.

Comprehensive tour of Old San Juan, covering history to today, including walking through all the major historical parts and neighborhood, and picturesque streets. Guide was excellent, communicating a great deal of good information, efficiently, keeping the group together and safe. Highly recommended.

This walking tour was great. The guide took us to so many stops and pointed out places to visit in our free time. He was patient and humorous. The tour lasted about 2 hours and you walk the whole time. That said, you see a lot and get a lay of the land in Old San Juan. I highly recommend it.
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
