Delightful, even for a skeptic like me. - Hubby and I booked a last minute, late afternoon Old San Juan walking tour. Charles was our guide. He was terrific. Interesting and educational, without being professorial. Two hours, relaxed pace, plenty of photo ops. I’m not usually a fan of guided tours. I prefer to just take off and explore on my own. But I’m glad I made an exception for this one. If you want to see the sights and get a better understanding of where you are, I’d definitely recommend it!
