Itinerary Overview

We arrived to an airport in San Juan in the afternoon and headed to airbnb to dropped off our stuff. We didn't have time to explore the city so ate dinner and end the first day. We went to el yunque to enjoy nature activity. We joined a tour we found on Airbnb app. After the el yunque trip we went to beach. Third day, we went to Old San Juan to enjoy a beautiful town then headed to the airport at night.

El yunque is beautiful. My friend and I enjoyed hike and water activities. Tour company we used took us to a local restaurant and their food was great. The hike was pretty intense and some people dropped off and didn't make it to the end. I loved the hiking trail but I'd say it wasn't for everyone. About the water activities, We jumped in a lake from a rock which was located at a very high place, so again, I'd say it wasn't also for everyone.

Scenery was beautiful there. You can enjoy various types of Puerto Rican food. Old San Juan is colorful European style town where you still can enjoy  Puerto Rican culture. There are some beautiful beaches are near by. It was very easy to get around by walk. We use uber a lot. It's cheap there.
