RCCL Grandeur of the Seas - San Juan |
When you arrive at the airport, getting to old San Juan is easy as getting a cab. For $19 (Plus Tip), you can fill up the taxi and have them take you to the Pan American Pier, where you can drop off your luggage to be loaded on the ship. The ship won't start boarding until 2pm. If you arrive well before that, either take a long stroll (About 1 1/2 miles) around the bay to Old San Juan, or take a taxi over to that side. Near old pier 4, you can pick up one of the free trolley's that will take you on a certain route around Old San Juan.
Here are some other things you can do and see around Old San Juan:

I love to try the local cuisine. Puerto Rico has hosted a few of the favorite Travel Channel types, like Andrew Zimmern (Bizarre Foods) and Adam Richman (Man vs. Food). But I am not a 5 star restaurant guy. I like the smaller less well known places. I recently found out about a place located on Calle Sol, from a blogger who always goes there when he is in San Juan. So for lunch on Sunday, you'll find me at El Jibarito, 280 Calle Sol.

The architecture here is historical, just like many of the statues and monuments. You will enjoy the beauty of it all. The ship leaves at 8:30. Make sure you are on board no later than 7pm. There will be plenty of fun before and during the sail away party.
