Escape the crowded cruise line tours and take our Old and New San Juan City Tour with an experienced guide. An old walled city with more than 400 years of history, in contrast to a modern resort city, is the backdrop for your orientation of this thriving and interesting city.
In the new part of town, you will travel through the Condado area. Here you will see the luxury hotels, casinos, nightclubs and many restaurants that make this the most popular place in town after dark.
San Juan's Old Town tells hundreds of years of history in its restored and renovated buildings, homes and fortifications. It is divided by narrow streets, many still paved with cobblestones. Photo opportunities abound as you pass the Governor's Palace, San Juan Cathedral, Capilla de Cristo, Fort San Cristobal and travel along the coast road to El Morro, where you will have a photo stop from the street.
As you drive along, look down every street for hidden plazas and the beautiful 17th-century Spanish ironwork on the restored old homes, and blue-black glazed cobblestones lining the narrow streets of the Old City. At the end of the tour, you will be returned to the port.
Guests on ships docked at the Pan American pier (across the bay from Old San Juan) have the option of ending their tour in Old San Juan for shopping and sightseeing. Those doing so are responsible for their own transportation back to the Pan American Pier.

Resort Beach Day
For guests not wishing to make the trek to the French side of the island, there's sun, sand and snorkeling waiting right here on Dutch St. Maarten's Great Bay.
The Divi Little Bay Beach Resort is located on a private peninsula between two beautiful bays, minutes from the Caribbean's best shopping and dining, but feeling worlds apart. After you make your way around the bay, check in with the beach staff for your day on the resort's private beach.
Included with this St. Maarten excursion is one beach chair per person, one umbrella for every two guests and the rental of a paddle board or kayak for 60 minutes for every two guests. Snorkel gear is included for your use to explore right from the beach.
Not included in the St. Maarten tour price, but available for rental, are: rafts, noodles, Hobie Cat sailboats and Wave Runners.
Easy currents make swimming perfect for all ages, while snorkelers and divers delight in the marine life surrounding the peninsula's edge. A cafe and bar overlooking the beach are also available for dining or a tropical libation on your St. Maarten excursion.
For guests to plan their own time at the beach, transfers are not included in this tour so guests can come or go when they wish. It is the guests' responsibility to make their way back to the cruise pier in time for their all-aboard and ship's sailing.
Please Note:If you plan to partake in any non-motorized activities, these are included in your tour but a credit card imprint must be taken and kept on file in case of damage or loss.
