Wilson Posted August 2, 2018 Report Share Posted August 2, 2018 Our flight does not leave until 4:45 so we were looking at Royal post-cruise excursions since they all include airport transfers. We are interested in the Bacardi Rum Distillery tour and the El Yunque Rain Forest Hike. The only other two options are city tours. We are flying in two days early and will have covered the city and making time for extreme ziplining at Toro Verde. Has anyone done the Rain Forest Hike or the Bacardi tour? Any other suggestions?

Matt Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Bacardi tour was a big disappointment. Lackluster and more of a commercial than a behind the scenes look at how rum is made. El Yunque is lovely, but you gotta be the type of person that enjoys hiking in warm and humid conditions. Wilson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilson Posted August 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Thx Matt. Back to research. Definitely don’t like hiking in hot and humid. Earlier flight would cost us each $182. Passing on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Vitale Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Wilson, it cost me almost $1300 for us to go to San Juan out of DFW. Never again. Wilson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We paid about half of that. American on the way down and Southwest on the return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted August 3, 2018 Report Share Posted August 3, 2018 Has the El Yunque access been restored ? I know that it was closed for a long time after the hurricane damage. We did a rainforest tour but it was while we were staying in PR on a land cruise so we had lots of time. I do recall that it took all day. Not sure it would be a great one (assuming it's even open) for a half day layover. We also did the Bacardi rum tour when we were there on our land cruise and we thought it was ok. I agree with Matt that it is not that big on process but we had a good time. Wilson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
