Bacardi Legacy Tour With Old City Sightseeing

OVERVIEW

Ponce de León founded San Juan in 1521 and several landmarks from the 16th century still remain. They include the original city walls and the forts Castillo San Cristóbal and El Morro. As you follow the guide through the atmospheric streets, you will hear commentary describing events that shaped San Juan. The second-oldest church in the western hemisphere, the gothic-style San Juan Bautista has survived hurricanes, pillages and attacks. You will learn much about the influential Bacardí family on the Legacy Tour of Casa Bacardí, the world's largest rum distillery.
