A good time!

Christine_G, May 2024

Lorena was our tour guide. The weather wasn’t on our side but don’t let that derail you, we still had a fantastic time! We had plenty of food, could barely eat at the last stop. We had 3 drinks, an appetizer type dish, 2 entree type dishes and dessert. We learned pieces of history along the way. Overall, we really enjoyed ourselves!

Salud!

Lisa_F, May 2024

I had an amazing time with Lorna! She is very knowledgeable of the history of San Juan and the influence that has on the cuisine.

Pick this one! Awesome tour.

Christine_M, May 2024

Our guide Lorna was wonderful! She shared her passion and knowledge of Puerto Rico as we explored Old San Juan. Beautiful place with rich history. The food was amazing. We had five tastings and three delicious rum drinks. If you have food allergies, be sure to contact Spoons directly. They are extremely helpful and will plan ahead with each restaurant to accommodate your dietary concerns. (I spoke with Paulina the day I booked the tour.) The pork, rice and bean dish was amazing! At each restaurant we had a charming private table ready and waiting. The service was friendly and quick. There was plenty of food. I would absolutely recommend this tour with Spoons. Hopefully, you will be fortunate enough to meet Lorna. Thank you, Lorna!!

Great experience

Pricey for what you get

Caroline_S, Apr 2024

The tour guide was great, the stops left something to be desired. Would have preferred more off the beaten path or street food vibes. Enjoyed learning the history, but overall do not think it was worth the price.

Great and delicious way to explore Old San Juan
