We did the El Yunque National Forest tour with Lismar and were so pleased that she was our guide again for the San Juan Done Right Tour.
In the comfort of the van we enjoyed Lismar's stories of life in Puerto Rico as we drove into Old San Juan. Lismar's knowledge of history is amazing. We did plenty of photo stops and we saw the highlights of New San Juan, Condado, Miramar, Puerta de Tierra, Santurce, the Art District ..... see much to see ! We adored the beautiful murals and witnessed the beauty of the old Fortresses and Plazas. We lit a candle in San Juan Cathedral .
We finished this educational tour at Torrecilla Baja where had lunch in Carmin Restaurant and tried some more traditional Puerto Rican dishes.
We ended up in a traffic jam on our way to the hotel but Lismar kept her spirits high and played some real Puerto Rican music in the van.
Highly recommend this tour.
Would book it directly with Seeing Puerto Rico Tours and Transportation to get the best price !!
