Chendo provided the group with a wonderful tour. He is very knowledgeable about the history of Old San Juan and the architecture in the area. We covered an extensive amount of ground on our tour. I highly recommend the walking tour but most importantly Chendo. My friends just booked multiple trips with him for tomorrow!

I highly recommend this tour and most notably for the expertise and congeniality of our tour guide. The weather was very good that day and our ship did not get into port until later afternoon so out tour did not start until 3pm. Our guide was very knowledgeable and endeavored to show us as much as possible in the 4 hour tour. You really need the full 4 hours to get it all in, there is a lot to see. As it is a walking tour, be prepared to walk a lot but it is well worth it. The one big downside we encountered however was that a number of the museums which were supposed to be open were unfortunately closed prior to their posted closing time. However, our awesome guide carried on and we still felt very fulfilled as to what we saw and experienced. If you can get on the earlier one, which we could not due to our late arrival, we would recommend taking it. Also, bring water as it is as said before a fairly strenuous walk with a good bit of uphill and downhill. Old San Juan is truly a beautiful and history filled location.

This walking tour with Chendo was very nice. There were only three of us in the group (myself and a couple), which made it very casual and intimate. It was nice to see so much history of Old San Juan. You can't get the same experience in a car like you do on foot. You see so much more! Chendo was very personable, friendly, calm, and knowledgeable. I especially appreciate how he didn't tell any of us to rate the tour and his performance with five stars like most do! If you're okay with walking a few miles, I would recommend this tour!
