I did enjoy San Juan, we just walked around the village and visited one of those forts, really nice.
It rained so that sucked.
And for RCCL the 9 day at least, was very short. 7-2, I am 30 not 80, 7am is not a time I wake up.
I found out though that we needed all that time to get back to smelly Jersey.

We enjoyed San Juan and it's beautiful people. Quite friendly. And the fort was awesome. I would say that a cruiser should go there at least once and experience it.

The rain forest were spectacular. My only complaint is that on our second cruise we were there from 6 PM till midnight. Horrible hours!

While we enjoy going to Puerto Rico for a long weekend, we are not fond of San Juan as a Port Stop!

We actually prefer the nighttime stop because of the atmosphere.

Yes but you can't really see the town, the fort, or the scenery. The place closes down early!
