What is the difference between a walking tour and a bus tour in Old San Juan?
A walking tour provides you the opportunity to stop and listen while your guide talks of the legends and history associated with the internationally recognized monuments and streets you will be seeing up close. Great photo opportunities are possible while walking with your tourist guide and at places that have influenced the history of Puerto Rico and the Western Hemisphere. On a bus tour you will pass by the historical sites, and your vision will be limited to the angle and size of the tour bus window. The driver has to pay attention to traffic while trying to present basic scripted information. On the other hand, a tourist guide that only concentrate on you will be able to provide the information face-to-face, answer all your questions, relate some amusing stories and help you take pictures. While the bus service is better for passengers that have physical limitations, there is no substitute for walking.
