8 days in San Juan Itinerary

Founded by the Spanish in 1521, San Juan is the oldest city under U.S.

Get a sense of the local culture at Old San Juan and La Muralla. Escape the urban bustle at El Yunque Rain Forest and La Guancha. Change things up with these side-trips from San Juan: Ponce (Museo Castillo Serralles, Hacienda Buena Vista, &more), Natural Reserve of Humacao (in Humacao) and Reserva Natural Medio Mundo y Daguao (in Ceiba). There's still lots to do: contemplate the long history of Sitio Histórico de San Juan, pause for some photo ops at Paseo de los Presidentes, make a trip to Guayama Town Plaza, and visit a coastal fixture at Punta Tuna Lighthouse.
