espmass Posted February 28, 2015 #2 Share Posted February 28, 2015 We didn't take that excursion as were in San Juan now pre-cruise. But yesterday we took the Taste of San Juan food tour Nd it was terrific. Best money we ever spent. Great food and good commentary from tour guide.

espmass Posted March 5, 2015 #4 Share Posted March 5, 2015 Just to clarify, we took this tour through "A Taste of San Juan". And not through one of the cruise lines. It was wonderful. Our guide was Carmen and she was the perfect blend of professional and friendly. We went to six restaurants and had pretty large portions of everything from Puerto Rican coffee and sandwiches to chocolates. We even had the chance to make and then eat our own Mofongo. The tours are given at 10AM and 3PM and last about three hours. We took the 3PM tour figuring it would fill in for dinner and it did. We were full after the tour. Carmen gave us plenty of commentary on sites, customs, and history of Puerto Rico along the way. We will absolutely take this tour again the next time we're in San Juan.

DiamondDiva Posted March 5, 2015 #5 Share Posted March 5, 2015 espmass, I cannot find a tour company called "A Taste of San Juan". Is that the name of the company or the tour itself? Could the company have been "Flavors of San Juan"? There are several foodie tour companies, but this name comes the closest. Thanks for your help, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still Dreaming Posted March 6, 2015 #6 Share Posted March 6, 2015 We took the flavor of San juan food tour and absolutely loved it! But we did it b4 cruise. Great tour guide was wonderful. The one thing we learnt from the tour is that deep fried foods are the tradition. We would love to do it again but our traveling friends have a gluten allergy. I highly doubt that he would have anything to pick from in some establishments. The history you learn on the journey is why we do food tours everywhere it is available!!!

AtMaui Posted May 9, 2015 #9 Share Posted May 9, 2015 We're interested in doing the Flavors of San Juan in December. Where does it meet in Old San Juan? Jaci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still Dreaming Posted May 9, 2015 #10 Share Posted May 9, 2015 We're interested in doing the Flavors of San Juan in December. Where does it meet in Old San Juan? Jaci once you sign up they will give you a meeting spot and directions. I am sure it changes with what restaurants you go to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dacsmom Posted May 10, 2015 #11 Share Posted May 10, 2015 Thanks for the good reviews of this tour. I am spending two days pre-cruise and really want to do this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dividedsky Posted May 11, 2015 #12 Share Posted May 11, 2015 How much did the Flavors of SJ tour cost if you don't mind me asking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landrews441@gmail.com Posted May 12, 2015 #13 Share Posted May 12, 2015 My DB and I are taking a cruise in September. We will only be in port from 7-2. This will be the first time either of us have been to Puerto Rico ... Is this a good tour for first timers?? Will there be any conflict getting back to the boat if we take a 10am tour?? Also, are there photo ops of island while on tour?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
