Tour of Old San Juan, Part 1

No trip to Puerto Rico is complete without at least a day in Old San Juan, a mélange of Old World elegance and vibrant 21st century Caribbean culture. It’s so interesting, we had to create two videos!

San Juan was built for walking, so we’ll start out by heading to our favorite parking garage, Dona Fela, so you don’t waste an hour looking for a place to put your car. Then we’ll visit the cruise ship port and explore the narrow streets, nooks and crannies of beautifully preserved Viejo San Juan, which just celebrated 500 years.

There is so much to see and do, for every age and stage: explore history, culture, shopping, eating, drinking, praying, gallery hopping, even flying kites!

Check back in a couple of days for the second half of our video.

Why are we doing this? Because life is short and the world is big, and we’re navigating it with a messy suitcase as we explore as much as we can. Join us on the adventure!
