Itinerary

  • San Juan Bay

    Kids will receive here their scavenger kits to start fun learning adventure. San Juan Bay (Spanish: Bahía de San Juan) is the bay and main inlet adjacent to Old San Juan in northeastern Puerto Rico.It is among the busiest Caribbean ports. Thousands of fishermen ply the brackish waters where fresh water meets the sea. San Juan Bay's beauty and ecological diversity attracts tourism and a variety of recreational activities. El Paseo de La Princesa, the most beloved promenade in Puerto Rico, dates back to 1853. This beautifully restored walk is a favorite place for locals day and night and welcomes millions of visitors from all over the world. La Princesa was a former prison. The initial city jail was built in 1837 and then expanded in 1854. It incarcerated up to 240 inmates until 1965. Now restored La Princesa Jail is home of the Puerto Rican Tourism Company and a remarkable museum.

    La Fortaleza is the official residence of the governor of Puerto Rico. It was built between 1533 and 1540 to defend the harbor of San Juan. It is the oldest executive mansion in continuous use in the New World. It was listed by UNESCO in 1983 as part of the World Heritage Site.

    One of Old San Juan's most emblematic plazas, Plaza de Armas, dates back to Spanish colonial times when it was designed as the city's main town square.

We'll end our educational fun tour here and I will happily recommend you places to eat around.

Amazing morning in OSJ!

Published on Oct, 2023

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Prof Natalia! We had such a wonderful and stress free morning in OSJ. We experienced everything I had in my mind I wanted to see, our kids (8 and 5) were engaged the entire time and they are still talking about her after we got home. She brought us adults some of her homemade sangria-the best drink we had on the island! Even helped us get a table at Cafe Manolin after the tour and explained the specials, as they were in Spanish and we are not fluent. She has so much knowledge and love for PR, we cannot wait to come back and book another tour with her. If you are on the fence about booking a tour in OSJ (or any other area in PR)-do it! Don’t get caught in the tourist trap-go off the beaten path and learn about the culture with Prof Nat-truly amazing!

Best PR Tour

Published on Sep, 2023

Nat was amazing ! My family enjoyed her so much we are booking another tour with her. If you have kids I would highly recommend her.

It really is a fun family tour.

Published on Apr, 2023

Nataliya was a wonderful tour guide! She was full of history and information about how PR became to be the cultural mix it is today. Her tour was informational, inspiring and most of all fun. We where a family of 4 with two teen girls and Nataliya was able to make it fun and engaging for them! Her mixture of Science, History and local knowledge of Old San Juan was enjoyed by us all. This is a great tour for families and I have no doubt she could even keep the youngest kids engaged through the tour. I highly recommend looking her up.

Child Friendly City Tour

Published on Mar, 2023

Nataliya was a wonderful tour guide! She was extremely knowledgeable and shared so much valuable information with us we left feeling like we had a good understanding of the history of Puerto Rico. In addition she was so patient and kind even with our most difficult child. She kept our young children (ages 2,6, 9) engaged the entire time! She answered all of their questions, showed them many interesting things and completed many science experiments with them. I would highly recommend Nataliya to anyone traveling with young kids in Puerto Rico. She does a variety of tours to different parts of the island. We enjoyed her so much we took another one of her whole day tours a couple days after the city tour. This tour was just as awesome!

The best tour I’ve ever had ❤️

Published on Dec, 2022

It was the most remarkable tour. The time passed by very quickly because the tour was very informative and interesting. Natalia is the best tour Gide! I definitely recommend.
