Cthy651 Posted May 24, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) We will be sailing on the Freedom in December, and our return flight to Toronto is not until 4:00pm - was thinking of doing the Old and New San Juan City Tour with Airport drop off. Has anyone had any experience with this tour thru Royal. Comments would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Edited May 24, 2019 by Cthy651 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted May 24, 2019 #2 Share Posted May 24, 2019 We did the OSJ tour with airport dropoff a few years ago. They dropped us at the airport around 2pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted May 24, 2019 #3 Share Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) I have taken a taxi to the airport, checked in, checked my bags....then walked back out to grab another taxi to downtown when I had a late flight. Worked for me, but it has been years since. Not sure how early airport will take your bags, but a 4:00 flight is not really that late anyway. BTW...love your kitty picture. Such a pretty face! 🙂 Edited May 24, 2019 by island lady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseguy1016 Posted May 24, 2019 #4 Share Posted May 24, 2019 I have not done that particular but have done others. The way it worked for us was; we got off the ship and were met outside by the tour company, our luggage was loaded onto the tour bus, we did the tour (our bus and luggage stayed with us the entire time) and then after the tour we were dropped off at the airport. We got our luggage off the bus and proceeded through Agriculture inspection, checked our luggage with the airline and then proceeded through TSA inspection.

I just lost mine to cancer two weeks ago today. She is also my avatar picture. They give so much and ask for so little, we have far too short a time on this earth with them. They live forever in our hearts. 😺 Edited May 24, 2019 by island lady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone had any experience with this tour thru Royal. We just did it 6 days ago. PROS: comfortable bus, friendly driver, an hour or so to spend exploring Old San Juan, you can leave your personal stuff on the bus during your stops, and your luggage is waiting for you at the airport. CONS: most of the time is spent driving - other than our stop in old San Juan, we only had a couple of 10 - 15 minute stops at various locations. Also, you will not have enough time to visit the forts during that hour! Finally - very important - there is NO luggage storage on the bus. No outside storage trunks, no overhead bins... nothing. Anything you bring on should fit under the seat in front or you or on your lap. I hope this helps! --bruce T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cthy651 Posted May 24, 2019 Author #9 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Btank, If there is no luggage storage on the bus, where do they keep the suitcases? We will be travelling with 2 suitcases and 1 carryon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we exited customs, the porter took us over to a truck. We let them load our luggage, as well as two small carryons (we kept my laptop and camera bag on the bus). After the tour, we were brought to an area outside of Terminal 3 where our luggage was waiting for us (supervised by two people). Note that there were no porters there - I had to walk down to Terminal 2 to get a porter, then brought him back to Terminal 3 so he could take our bags to Terminal 1! --bruce T.
