Unveiling the Beauty of San Juan: A Walkable Adventure in Puerto Rico
I was excited when I saw that my recent cruise on the Sky Princess was going to San Juan, Puerto Rico. I also love to visit a port where you do not have to pay for a shore excursion. I love going to new places and have never been to Puerto Rico. Since this was my first time in Puerto Rico, I just wanted to explore the town of San Juan on foot. This was a great decision! We were able to walk off the ship and start exploring. After speaking with fellow cruise passengers, we decided to get off the Sky Princess, explore early, and get back around noon before it got too hot. This was a great plan for us! We got off the ship and started walking toward the fort. On the way, we went by lots of local artisans. They were extremely nice, and I bought some local jewelry to bring home.

We had a nice morning, and I loved not having to book an expensive shore excursion.

I loved the vibe and enjoyed walking about exploring with no plan. The locals were extremely nice. The buildings and the fort were perfect for this history lover. I would love to return with my husband and explore the fort and castle.

We randomly found this beautiful church. We were invited in. I love visiting churches when I travel to see how the locals worship.

I enjoyed my morning in Puerto Rico. Even though it was February, it was warm by lunch. Our plan was the perfect amount of time for exploring.
