Getting out there Posted December 12, 2017 #2 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Look for the free trolleys if staying in that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njhorseman Posted December 12, 2017 #3 Share Posted December 12, 2017 Look for the free trolleys if staying in that area. As of recent reports the trolley hasn't operated since Hurricane Maria . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MEcruzr Posted December 13, 2017 #5 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I've always had luck finding them at any plaza. If you take a cab into OSJ, ask your cab driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kayehall Posted December 14, 2017 #7 Share Posted December 14, 2017 How about at the entrance to the port? Or if you stop somewhere for drinks/food, the restaurant could hail one for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSWBADGER Posted December 14, 2017 #8 Share Posted December 14, 2017 How about at the entrance to the port? Or if you stop somewhere for drinks/food, the restaurant could hail one for you. Correct, It seems we always end up by the Cruise Ship Port after our OSJ Adventure, always taxis at the cruise port or the Sheraton OSJ across the street.

LakeWinniMom Posted December 14, 2017 #9 Share Posted December 14, 2017 We toured OSJ in November. Although there were many areas with signs for taxi stands, the only one we found that was operating was in front of the Sheraton Old San Juan.

klc0472 Posted December 14, 2017 #10 Share Posted December 14, 2017 They have Uber in San Juan. We used them a few times before and after cruising from San Juan. Last I heard they couldn’t pick up from the cruiseport but getting one anywhere else you should be fine. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donr Posted December 14, 2017 #11 Share Posted December 14, 2017 Never been to Old San Juan and very excited to see the sights there. After we are done touring the area, where is the best place to take a taxi back to our hotel? Thanks for the info. We were there last week, took a cab to Old San Juan, breakfast at Bombanera, wandered around after that and had a very hard time finding a cab to go back. There were no ships in the Old San Juan port area, so no cabs! Strongly suggest you get a card from your driver and call him when you're ready to go back. We had to call our driver, otherwise I think we would still be there. Replies that say Condado don't know what they're talking about, Condado is not within walking distance. Things are different because of the hurricane situation, not as much tourism in OSJ as in days past, hence not many cabs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
