Day 1 - San Juan, Capital of Puerto Rico
About the place
San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico, with a history of more than 500 years is a dream for history lovers. Once this harbor served as a base for the Spaniards in the New World, and this influence is still felt. Walking along the narrow streets, you will see fortress walls and bright colonial buildings. Outside the Old Town, amazing nature opens up: go to the El Yunka rainforest or explore the surroundings on horseback along the river. If you prefer a quiet holiday, find a secluded beach and relax with a local delicacy - cod pancakes and a cocktail with rum. Cruises in San Juan provide a great opportunity for a busy and relaxed vacation.
Variety of impressions
Puerto Rico is the third largest island among the territory of the United States, so there is a beach for everyone.

In the El Condado area, which is called the "Caribbean Riviera", there are family beaches with many cafes and shops. And the black sand of Playa Negra beach on the island of Vieques attracts the attention of lovers of unique photos.
