texswamper Posted February 11, 2009 #1 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Ok, Princess has ruined my plan for embarkation 4/26! Last March I sailed on the Crown at the OSJ pier. We boarded at 11:30 am, ate lunch and hit the streets until we were ready to reboard the ship. I have booked the Caribbean Princess thinking we would get to do the same thing only to find out that we will be boarding at the Pan Am pier. I have been over there twice on AOS RCCL and it's not nearly as wonderful!:( So, are there any of you who have boarded at the Pan Am early (by noon) and then gotten off to take a taxi to OSJ for several hours? I would like to hear your recent experiences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yogibeanie Posted February 17, 2009 #2 Share Posted February 17, 2009 I just returned from my cruise and boarded the ship at 11:30, ate lunch, and then went by taxi to Old San Juan. I did the whole walking tour, starting at the La Casita, saw all the old buldings, fountains, and toured both forts. It was close to 6 when we were done, with plenty of time to get back to the ship.

Sailor Gal Posted February 18, 2009 #3 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Do you remember what you paid for taxis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrp96 Posted February 18, 2009 #4 Share Posted February 18, 2009 Taxi fare between OSJ and the Pan Am Pier should be between $10 and $15 (I can't remember the exact fare, sorry). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be on the CB and have a Segway Tour booked for 3 PM. We are hoping to board, eat lunch and head to OSJ after that. Will we have enough time to get there by 3?

mamoune Posted February 20, 2009 #6 Share Posted February 20, 2009 We have the same problem this year :-( Although it was nice to be able to just walk away, I suppose the taxi will have to do. Is there anywhere special in OSJ to meet to do the walking tour? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
