The whole family really enjoyed the sunset cruise. The views and history given was fantastic. Rafael was a great tour guide. The captain and first mate were awesome as well. We loved it so much we didn’t want it to end. We were picked up and dropped off at our hotel included with cost. I definitely recommend this tour 10/10.

Sunset Cruise Recommendation

Tanya_C, Jul 2026
It was fun and enjoyable. We truly enjoyed the MC and the Captain was cool!! Will recommend to anyone to take the Sunset Cruise.

Boat ride didn’t really see sunset

Libera_P, Jul 2026
Tony pick us up and dropped off where we wanted which was very convenient. The boat ride was nice with John the captain and I can’t remember the guy who talked about are surrounding was nice but unfortunately I don’t think it was worth the price. U got as much drinks had you want and food was just ok.

Jermaine_D, Jul 2026
The cruise and narrator were fantastic! However, there were some coordination issues, and additional signage at the location could help guests find their way. It might also be helpful if someone arrived early to assist guests in lining up correctly.

Puerto Rico Joyride

Shawn_J, Jun 2026
It was a great way to learn about San Juan, and celebrate its history. The sunset was beautiful and the sites were astounding. The tour guide, Rafael, was knowledgeable and full of energy. He made the boat ride one to remember. Would highly recommend anyone to go on the boat ride into the sunset. Major kudos to Rafael and the rest of the crew. All were polite and provided a fun experience. He acknowledged all birthdays and my parent’s 44th anniversary with all the crew and passengers singing ‘Happy Birthday’ and ‘Happy Anniversary’.

Sunset Cruise in San Juan Bay

It's fun and educational. We really enjoyed it. Pick up and drop off was very helpful for us, as we were not familiar with the area.

Poor customer service experience

Rachel_N, Jun 2026
The bus was freezing and took a long time waiting for another group. When arriving at the marina after over an hour there was no bathroom as listed in the info from the tour. I asked for a solution and offered several but no help or resolution was given. Food was stale and minimal and sangria pouches spilled everywhere. After the tour I had to walk a few blocks to go to a hotel bathroom along with other guests when the driver could have just taken us to one. I also had to walk back. The bus driver was the nicest person on the tour. Extremely poor customer service and definitely not worth what it cost. I would say it’s a $39 per person experience at best and I never leave negative reviews like this but the poor customer service needs to be brought to light for other tourists.

Laura_H, Jun 2026
This tour was a last minute booking for us and we are so glad we did! From picking us up at the hotel to getting us out on the water and making sure we got the best pics - the crew was fantastic! Will definitely do again!

This tour is a MUST!!!!

Katherine_W, Jun 2026
This is a perfect activity with your partner, friends or even by yourself!!!! They offer to pick you up and drop off at your hotel if you’re close to the area. Tony was our driver for pickup and he was SO nice!!! Super funny too lol. Boat ride was FANTASTIC!!!! I think our tour guides name was Joe. Oh he was so much FUN!!!!! They played music on the boat too, which I loved. It was a full on VIBE!!!!! This is a must do when you’re in San Juan. Beautiful views❤️ you won’t regret it.
