Great for solo travellers. The hosts were amazing, and they really make sure you have a great time and make it easy to connect with. I did my tour on a Friday and had a great time with our group!

We got there a little later than the start time but still made it to the first place. My sisters and I had a ball. The host and cohost really showed us a good time. Would definitely recommend it. We're planning on doing it again when we come back.

Que Bella noche! What a beautiful night! Amanda was our designated guide on this experience. She made my group (me and 2 friends) feel very welcomed. She explained what the plan was for the night, answered any questions patiently, and made sure that we all had a fantastic time! We went to multiple bars, each with their own unique vibe - and drinks! The atmosphere was safe, welcoming, and vibrant - not a single dull moment. We mingled around with other people also on the bar crawl, and we all enjoyed the night - I met so many people from all over the world. Puerto Rico was a beautiful experience, and this bar crawl really emphasized the warm and friendly culture that the Puerto Rican people have. I would love to experience this again

I can't say enough how worth is this excursion was! I had a group of 12 in attendance and it was the best part of our trip. We all keep looking back at videos and reliving the night it was so much fun. 10/10
Jenai_M, May 2026
10/10 experience! The atmosphere was amazing, the drinks were great, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Service was fast, the music was perfect, and the overall vibe made for a fun night out. I would definitely recommend this bar to anyone visiting the area and will be back again!
Mia_L, May 2026
It was a bit underwhelming. Our guide was barely around to facilitate conversation. We went to 3 bars that weren’t that lively because it was early so we were just sitting around half the time. Most of the drinks were average at best but at least the 2nd spot is unlimited drinks. Luckily I was able to connect with a few ppl, no thanks to our host, and we decided to keep the party going later on. Maybe with a different host it would be better.
Hillary_J, May 2026
Amazing!!! The staff were so fun and so were the people!!! I definitely would do this again. I got super drunk!
Bradley_S, May 2026
They give you a cheap rum drink at first spot and tell you next spot will be open bar for 45 min -we will leave in an hour - no interaction - no history - what are you supposed to do for an hour unattended? With one terrible drink- the worst watered down rum punch ever -
We left - thanks but no thanks -
Worst $130 every spent - save your money- this isn’t a true pub crawl- it’s 50 people and unaccompanied drinking standing on the street- and waiting—-
Kentrell_Y, May 2026
The host was Great! Very polite! Made sure we stuck with the group and checked on us while we were in the bar! She was awesome!!
Now to be honest! I don’t feel like this was worth $65 only because my friend as well as myself are not tequila nor vodka drinkers. Which is the only liquor you can get with the bar crawl purchase….Everything else you have to pay for out of pocket! This makes it pointless to me! I am a cognac drinker (Hennessy or D’ Ussé) so paying $65 to bar hope and not be able to drink the liquor I prefer was pointless and a waste of money.
Kia_S, May 2026
This was so fun! Great for groups couples first timers to San Juan and solo travelers . Yairo was a great host!
TimMara_T, May 2026
The bars didn’t start getting lively until 11 pm but the drinks were good and the guide was amazing
!
SheilaD_S, May 2026
Fun experience. Great for a solo traveler. Met some really cool people. The drinks were good and the food was good too. I felt safe
Lauren_F, May 2026
This was such a fun time! My sister and I took our mom and she felt comfortable and had a great time. The hosts did such a good job engaging the guests and keeping everyone together. We did only do 3 bars, I think my only critique would have been at least 1 or 2 more bars, but overall a great and safe way to experience San Juan nightlife.
Michael_A, May 2026
We had the best time ever for my friend bday, on our next trip we will definitely be booking again.... HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!
Cynthia_M, May 2026

Helen_D, Apr 2026
The San Juan bar crawl was so much fun! Our host Amanda was five stars, and she took care of everyone! As a solo traveler, it was so nice to meet a bunch of people who were engaging and there to have a good time. I highly recommend going on the bar crawl if you wanna have a good time!!!
Ateeka_D, Apr 2026
So much fun! Great way to see the bar scene in old San Juan and connnect with others in the group. Each bar was close to the other so not much walking and you had the right amount of time at each. Javi (?) our guide was informative and kept the party going.
Angela_J, Apr 2026
This experience is nothing like the itinerary describes it. Supposedly we meet at one bar, then casually make our way down the street to other bars. Let's start: Date of Experience: Tuesday, 31 March 2026
Pros: We did get a free drink and/or free shot at the bars. However, definitely bottom shelf alcohol. You can purchase top shelf alcohol on your own at the bar. The vibe/music was awesome. Our guide, Yaya (short version of his name) seemed friendly enough.
We did meet a couple of really good people and had fun talking and dancing with them.
At the third bar we went to we got a Hooka setup. That was very nice. However, our guide was rushing us to leave so he could deliver us to the final place and be done with us for the night. I felt like he should have just left us there especially since we ONLY walked across the street to the next place. Hooka is not cheap and we left it to appease him.
We ordered food at the last bar/restaurant and it was delicious. I do not recall the name.
Cons: We never left the area and all 4 bars were literally next door to each other or across the street from each other. Per the itinerary "wear comfortable shoes - the tour comes with 2 small walks around 5-7 minutes from the top of the old city all the way to the bottom." This was NOT TRUE.
The itinerary also states "the first bar serves Puerto Rican tapas." Another LIE. First of all the first bar was so crowded (not a complaint) all they could do was serve drinks to the lines of people waiting to order.
The itinerary states, " Old San Juan, Calle del Cristo, Calle San Sebastian" as places we would visit bars. Again, the location we were at, we never left the 25 -50 foot radius, as the four bars were next door to each other or literally across the street.
Would I do this again? Probably not because it was too far off from the description on Viator.
Would I recommend it to others? Only if they corrected the itinerary and If it is your first time in Puerto Rico, yes I recommend it. If you have been to Puerto Rico before just go to the areas listed on the itinerary and you will find the bars/party. To be clear, There was nothing wrong with the bars being so close to each other other than it was NOT what was advertised and expected from customers who purchased this bar crawl. Therefore, false advertising.
Bottom Line: I had a good time.
Yahyra_h, Apr 2026
It was definitely fun I do recommend just don’t get to kitty like me and lose ya phone 💀😢 buh yuh give it 10/10
Asia_P, Apr 2026

So much fun! The drinks were delicious and the people were such a vibe! I would recommend this to anyone.
Bridget_S, Apr 2026
I enjoyed the tour very much I will do this again! I enjoyed the other participants and I appreciate the services from all the bars thank you!
Abraham_T, Apr 2026
Disappointed. Ive been to several pub crawls and they didn't help u get to know each other or stick around to make sure we're carrying on or making sure we're safe. It was busy, of course but a little effort would go a long way = )
Andrew_V, Apr 2026
Very much worth it. Vibes were on point and walking around Old San Juan was super fun! The gentleman with the megaphone had great energy and made the whole event feel very upbeat.
Zoe_W, Apr 2026
Great time, good bars and last one had late night food. Definitely fit for an older crowd, but fun time regardless. Good amount of drinks included.
