Itinerary

Enjoy hotel pickup in Old San Juan

We will pick you up at Condado Vanderbilt Hotel in a Mercedes SUV or Minivan for your private small group or a Custom High Roof Transit van for 7 to 14 people.

Learn about Puerto Rican history

Your VIP guide drives you past plenty of historical landmarks. The stories and facts are a journey in time, where you get to learn both the inspiring and challenging moments in our Puerto
Rican history. Ancient civilizations, the 16th- and 17th-century Spanish invasion, and becoming an American territory are all on the table for discussion as we pass the Capitol and more.

Check out San Juan's distinct neighborhoods

After the history portion of our tour is done, you will visit the more modern areas such as Miramar and Santurce and learn about the Hurricane Proof Convention Center; the Street Art District nestled in El Gandul; the blue-collar community in Tras Talleres; and our famed nightlife district, La Placita, among other places.
We will also go to Piñones, a little beach village that will make you feel as if you are in 1960s Puerto Rico with its vibrant building and flavors. Here you can learn more about our Black heritage and try some of Loiza’s world-famous street food.

Enjoy a complimentary tasting at Ron del Barrilito Distillery

Enjoy complimentary tickets for the distillery tour, and a drink of your choice and then taken to the most complete tour inside a distillery in Puerto Rico. A local interpreter will show and explain all rum-making steps and process in an unmatched learning experience that takes you through every area including the curating barrels area.
