![How to Tour Old San Juan [Puerto Rico] [Self-Guided Walking Tour]](/img/n.gif)
New Orleans founded date 1718 - San Juan Founded date 1521. I think New Orleans resembles San Juan.
I was think of the same thing.
Yes I agree. I never meant to insinuate that New Orleans was older. This place also reminds me of other older cities like Baltimore and Philadelphia. I really can’t wait to come back and learn, see and do more. Thanks for watching ❤❤❤
Um, Spain may get a bit offended by these assertions. 😂
@@skepticalmaiden Duh... every colonial city in the Americas resembles Europe, everybody knows that.
San Juan is the oldest city in the American continent and the oldest in all the US territories. PR also has the oldest hospital in all the Americas founded in the 1500’s and so many other surprising facts. Continental Americans and should do well to take a stroll every now and again down history lane when it comes to PR. Before there was an US, or a Mexico, or an Argentina or a Brazil or a Colombia, there was PR. And this is not just boasting, this is cold hard fact. Not to mention one the biggest culture in the Americas, but for the sake of humility, I’ll leave it at that. Anyway, it was nice to see y’all enjoying our country.
Facts 🇵🇷🤗
The oldest city in the american continent is in The Dominican Republic. Puerto is the oldest U.S territorry.
@rickyvoli22 Santo Domingo in DR is the oldest city in the America's, San Juan is the second.

PR has the oldest hospital in all the Americas, the first consecrated cathedral in the Americas, the first written novel in the Americas is about a PR’can pirate, the first Knight in the Americas in a mulato PR’can and richest in all the Americas, knighted by King of Spain himself. The first slave king in the Americas was a PR’can slave, sent to Venezuela and established a kingdom there. Why am I saying this??? Because I feel that other peoples, specially some Americans and even other Latinos, despite our current situation, which is shameful I admit, kinda tend to look down on us. And I can keep enumerating a lot of other incredible history to you, that’s why I’m saying this, we have an incredible history that even other Puerto Ricans don’t know, we have the capacity for either statehood or independence, what we lack is political discipline, that’s what we lack, the capacity is there, not the discipline, I’m sorry to say.
Greetings, so glad you enjoyed San Juan, hope next time you can visit for a longer stay so that you can explore more of our Island and our beautiful beaches 🇵🇷
We can’t wait to come back and see more! ❤
What would you recommend?
@@crystaltaxandrealtor5432 I highly recommend the town of Rincon on the opposite side of San Juan, the beaches there are also beautiful and if you like surfing the best waves are there, also another town that you might like is Ponce because of its rich history and culture, the Island of Culebra and Vieques are also highly recommended and major attractions because of their famous beaches, and one more wonderful experience that you shouldn’t miss is the Bioluminescent bay witch Puerto Rico has 3 of 5 that only exist in the world, I hope my travel advise serves you well and enjoy your stay when you visit!
Many of those STREETS are OLDER than most towns and cities in the USA. That entrance fee,, for EL Morro,,also allows you to visit the other Fort the same day.
We really want to go see the other Fort when we return!
Enjoyed the music selection and edits, showed effort and good taste. Better luck finding mofongo in a next visit.
Thank you so much 😊 and yes! we will stop at nothing to get the mofongo next time 😅
I fell in love with Old San Juan on my last cruise. Can’t wait to do it again one day 🤞🏻
I keep looking at flight prices to SJU haha Would love to explore more of the island next time!
Haha my first Mallorca was out of the back of a car and it was amazing
I love this 😂 I had a similar experience my first tamale
Some suggestions for next time. Don’t wear black, use light colors and light fabrics to walk around Old SJ, you’ll feel the difference with the heat. La Mallorquina is the traditional place for mallorcas, and Barrachina is the birth place of Pina Colada. Tour El Convento Hotel. The patio bar is great for drinks, and it’s historical ambience is beautiful. Tour San Cristobal Fort. It’s smaller than El Morro, but I’ve always felt it was much more interesting since it housed and fed the garrisons. If you can, walk the streets of Old SJ at dusk. Thursday thru Sunday you can enjoy local party vibes and a great drink at La Vergüenza and the alley it’s adjacent to., plus the view from the 2nd story terrace is amazing! The best light for touring Old SJ is dusk, and when the street and house lights start coming on it can be magical. Have a meal at The Cannon Club if you want to feel what it could have been like when the colonial Spanish elite made their homes their. Just a few of the many things you can do in a day.
These tips are amazing!!! Thank you so much. We just went there a couple weeks again and did see the smaller fort, so impressive. We did try Barrachina but haven’t heard of the cannon club. Next time we go we will definitely take your tips thank you so much for sharing so other people know what to do! We are San Juan novices and hoping to see and do more there when we go back so thank you thank you!
Love San Juan 🇵🇷
We can't wait to go back 100%
Thanks for visit Puerto Rico.
Hope you enjoy it!
We loved it!
Beautiful video, I’m glad you enyoyed San Juan. Hope you can come back soon. Be prepared for explore more than San Juan. There are a lot of incredible places and experiences across the island, and all relatively near.
What would you recommend? Visiting PR in 10 days. Super excited.
Hey I know this was months ago but how was your trip to PR!? Hope you had a great visit!
We are going back soon and now getting excited all over again for San Juan!
Beautiful island 😍
thank you beautiful video.
Thank you that’s so kind of you to say ❤❤
Going to PR in 10 Days for the first time. Super excited.
🙌
How did it go!
Puerto Rico 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷💯
Thanks. Your skin is beautiful natural, and glowing. The tropical weather is excellent for every skin type.
Omg thank you! I believe it’s because I was sweating so much 😂 but that humidity is good for skin I hear.
Antes las épocas mas frescas comenzaban desde octubre. Ahora con el cambio climático y además que este año ha sido las más calurosas ya desde enero refrescan más y no pasas tanto calor. Me encanto su video!🇵🇷
@@margaritareyes9959 Somos del alto norte de América, así que todo nos parece atractivo 😂 todavía nos encantó estar allí. gracias por sus amables palabras. Volveremos muy pronto en mayo. ¿Algo que recomiendes que hagamos mientras estemos allí?
@@VoyagerReview Hay muchos lugares para ver. Si les gusta estar en contacto con la naturaleza les recomiendo el “El Yunque Rain Forest”
Si les gusta la aventura extrema en “Toro Verde adventure” en Orocovis donde pueden deslizarse por el Zip Line más largo. Es increíble y la vista espectacular.
Para ir a las playas en el área de San Juan esta El Escambron, Playa en Isla verde, Playa de Ocean Park. Hay lugares muy bonitos alrededor de la isla y playas. Me gusta Rincón que queda al Oeste, lindas playas también y lugares para pasarla bien. No terminaría, pero puedes buscar mas información por las redes. Cuando regresen que la pasen bien. Saludos!🇵🇷
The best port in the planet
Love the background music ❤ Beautiful Island.
Thanks for the adventure.
Our pleasure! We can't wait to return to San Juan!
You have to go down for a week. The waterfront is totally legit. So much is going on, and it's the time of your life. I'm on my way back in 2024, I can't wait. Thanks for sharing.
We will take any tips! We are going back in may and staying outside of San Juan. Any spots you’d recommend?
March 3,2024 Norwegian Epic cruise coming up: just finished online check in.
Oh where is it going? I hear people love Norwegian
Great video. We'll be in San Juan in Jan. We used to live on Big Island and coqui frogs are all over. Very invasive and loud.
Now I want to know what these frogs sound like! And I hope you had a good time.
Your video was very informative…thanks
Glad it was helpful! We loved exploring here!
Wow como han subido los precios para entrar al Morro. Hace unos 11años la entrada era a $3.00😲
Those cats are the ancestors of the original cats that were brought in from Spain. When PR was a Spanish colony. Also the cobblestones are from Spain when PR was a Spanish colony
That’s so interesting!
Spain did not colonies but overseas provinces. In the 19th Century Puerto Rico went from province to autonomous province (Spain- María Cristina queen-1897) with its own currency. The U.S. made it a colony in 1898.
Hi. Fun video. I will also be on the lookout for! Allorca. I dont suppose yoh remember the name of the street?
Hi! That Mallorca we had was at cafeteria mallorca
Nice video! What camera are you using? Looks amazing
Hi thanks! It’s actually all filmed on an iPhone 14 Pro Max
And we use a gimble to keep it steady. The zhuiyan m3 crane
Waooo TACOS that’s new in Puerto Rico since that’s authentic Mexican cuisine, I asked and I was told that they incorporate the Mexican tacos in the puertorican cuisine , because tourist requested, but that’s no puertorican dish
I didn’t hear them say that they thought tacos were Puerto Rican. Every Puerto Rican food they were in search of they mentioned specifically like the Mallorca and such. It just seems like they were reviewing the bar. It seems like common knowledge that tacos are Mexican
You already ate the most traditional Mallorca in PR. So no waste you money on Starbucks version. Mallorca are avaialble in many place, but few places have te real traditional mallo se. They are from Spain, so if you want to try other, visit a Spain bakery shops.
The name of this dessert in Spain is "ensaimadas de Mallorca".
We are going back in may, any places you’d recommend?
Yes, that’s the best place! My mother used to take me there since I was little. Now that I’m older, I take my son. ❤
Great video? What camera do ya use
We used an iPhone 14 pro max. The only issue I have with using it is in darker settings it doesn’t do so well and with zooming really close from far away but other than that it has a great camera!
We also use an electronic gimble to hold it still
Como siempre hay quien quiere crear una controversia en Puerto Rico y México yo voy a dejarte saber una cosa, en ningún momento ellos han dicho que los tacos son de Puerto Rico? Incluso los tacos que se están comiendo no son la manera original como se preparan en México, voy mucho más allá en México la mayoría de las taquerías y los kioscos callejeros, te venden una tortilla de paquete lo cual tampoco es la forma original de hacer un taco original mexicano, creo que me entiendes lo que te quiero decir verdad, hay demasiado de mucho millones de personas no solamente en México sino alrededor del mundo que también en Puerto Rico se disfruta lo que es la comida mexicana por los lazos que ha habido en Puerto Rico y en México, Puerto Rico se introdujo una amplia variedad de comida mexicana por mexicano nacido en México fueron a Puerto Rico se establecieron allá y abrieron los negocios mexicanos y esto se ha perdido por toda la isla, por eso en Puerto Rico también se consume la comida mexicana tiene que ir y verlo con tus propio ojos volviendo atrás al tema esa tortilla que usamos hoy en día es simplemente porque la gente y la demanda hace que la empresa la produzcan no la forma original, en Puerto Rico se preparan comidas americanas comida italiana comida Argentina en sí Puerto Rico tienen una gastronomía aparte de la gastronomía local de Puerto Rico de otros países del mundo que están establecidos en Puerto Rico tiene nada más que ir para que tú A cuántos restaurantes hay, tenemos una variedad de restaurantes que ninguna otra parte del mundo la vas a encontrar y te lo digo así, comida Turquía japonesa china colombiana, y no creada por puertorriqueño urgente de esos países que reciben en Puerto Rico, por lógica los empleados puertorriqueños van aprendiendo el sistema de comida y abren sus propios restaurantes pero con el mismo toque de la comida y la creación de esos países, se sabe que los tacos son originales de México y se crearon en México ... Ahora la creación original la forma en que preparaban la tortilla Como se conoce hoy en día los tacos no Data de ahora esto se habla sobre mal de 500 años como se fue evolucionando los hoy en día se conoce como taco, pero no se sabe exactamente cuándo fue que realmente se creó solamente es un estudio y se creen que quien formó lo que se llama la forma de la tortilla fue Hernández Cortés, nacido en Medellín Salamanca en España una mezcla de ambas culturas, porque si no lo sabe tanto el olivarese como los españoles ellos lo hacían pero con harina y las pegaban en los moldes al lado del fuego para que se tostaran y todavía usan esa tradición en España por eso se cree que él fue que lo inventó, en México deberían de dejar de estar tanto tirándole a los puertorriqueños porque nosotros somos gente regulares como cualquier persona somos una isla chiquitita pero llena de sabor y eso es lo que le duele a los demás...
Gracias 🙏 por ver este video ❤️ es muy interesante 😊
Great video… the background music is a bit annoying 👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you for the compliment, we learn more and more about editing with each video. we appreciate the feedback ❤️
What port city did you leave from on the Disney ship?
We left from the port of Miami for this one
nope Puerto Plata DR
Can you rent bicycles there?
We didn't see rentals in Old San Juan but in Condado Beach there are lots of mobile scooter rentals all around!
@@VoyagerReview ok thank you for that 😊
New Orleans architecture is Spanish not French .. reason it look like San Juan .
No, It’s definitely French.
Its wrong la mayorca is not the best in bakery. Since it is expensive, they sell everything that is not fresh. I always tell tourists to leave San Juan and try other better and cheaper places.
Yeah we are going again in may and venturing out. It’s difficult because of timing on a cruise ship but we are staying a few days in May and I’m looking forward to it. Anywhere you’d you’d recommend for food or pastries? Would love to hear more from people who know the place better
Hi, 🐕🐶🐕May I share the most important news you will ever hear? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?
Tacos is not a Puerto Rican dish.
They never said that tacos were Puerto Rican. Maybe they just like tacos and were reviewing the food at the restaurant. I don’t mean you any offense.
Everybody know that tacos is not a puertorican food, it’s a mexican food , what is the point?
I know that. I was just making a point. You all haters need to chill.
