RichardK Posted December 10, 2005 #2 Share Posted December 10, 2005 Plenty of places on the Internet to find a walking map of Old San Juan. You will not be disappointed that you did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texancruzer Posted December 10, 2005 #3 Share Posted December 10, 2005 You did not say how long you will be there....where you are staying if you are doing a precruise or postcruise stay. Definately walk old San Juan. Try to hit El Morro if possible. If staying longer than a port stay there are other special little places to go. Let us know more details and we could respond better.

Sheffie Posted December 22, 2005 #5 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Here is a link to a walking tour by Frommer's: http://www.frommers.com/destinations/sanjuan/0323010008.html If you don't like a LOT of walking, you can take a taxi up to El Morro and then walk your way back down through Old San Juan. It is very much a piece of Europe in America. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texancruzer Posted December 22, 2005 #6 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Just a quick note that the walking tour by Frommers online is not as detailed as the one in the book Frommers "Caribbean Ports of Call" (5th edition is latest printing) Good investment for anyone going to the Caribbean on a ship. Has all the ports and SO FULL OF USEFUL INFO. Wish I had bought it before my first cruise..... Good tip Sheffie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laceyjane Posted December 23, 2005 #7 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Hi, We are going on a March 2006 cruise, just wondering if I should buy the 5th edition or if I should wait a month or so to see if Frommers will be coming out with the newest edition in Jan 2006? I have one that I bought 2 or 3 years ago just want to get the newest edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
