Sean&Karen Posted November 17, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Our itinerary was changed and we are now going to San Juan...again...for the 3rd of 4th time. We are disappointed we aren't going to a different island. Hubby is not a fan of San Juan at all and doesn't even want to get off the boat. How can I get him off the boat? I am sure we are missing out on something that is there. We are there from 7am to 1pm. Two years ago we just walked around and checked out a shop or two and went back on the ship. We have an 8 and 11 year old that liked the Del Sle store, but wasn't really into looking at the older buildings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms411 Posted November 17, 2019 #2 Share Posted November 17, 2019 Go to the lagoon in Condado. Nice area. Here's a link to reviews. Make sure you read the second review. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g147320-d150495-Reviews-Condado_Lagoon-San_Juan_Puerto_Rico.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djsmrs Posted November 19, 2019 #3 Share Posted November 19, 2019 You could take the kids to Chocobar Cortes - get 'em all hyped up on sugar and then back to the ship for some pool time to burn it off! My kids (9&11) are bored of SJ too and will be staying on the ship while I wander for coffee and chocolate 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tidygirl Posted November 30, 2019 #4 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Have you walked out by the water below the forts? It's a nice walk. I'm not sure I'd say it classifies as fun, but it is something to do and you will see plenty of cats! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarasgrandma Posted December 17, 2019 #5 Share Posted December 17, 2019 If they each have a small digital camera or a cell phone, you could put together a scavenger hunt activity....things for them to look for and photograph as you walk around the town. Maybe make a rule, that they can't both snap a pic of the same exact thing so whoever gets to it first, the 2nd one has to find a different pic to snap. Umbrella street is neat to see (fortaleza st). Iguanas, Cats, various flags, statues, etc. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jean87510 Posted December 21, 2019 #6 Share Posted December 21, 2019 If you guys like to ride bikes, theres a rental company that will bring the bikes to you in old san juan (not pan American pier). Theres a nice bike path out to escabrom beach area. Good way to get off ship to explore for a few hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afergvip Posted January 2, 2020 #7 Share Posted January 2, 2020 We have that same itinerary with San Juan - short amount of time. We are thinking of doing the zip lining to keep the kids entertained - has anyone done that?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been to old San Juan a few times before and hubby loves to bike so this could be fun. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
