Things to Do in San Juan, Puerto Rico: Tours You Can Book Now

Jet skis, mangrove boat rides, UTV trails, food tours and kayaks, all a short ride from the airport and the cruise piers.

Destinations › San Juan

Most visitors stay in Condado, Isla Verde or Old San Juan, and you can fill several days without leaving the metro area. Isla Verde and Piñones, next to the airport, are where most of the water action is: jet skis, boat rides through the mangroves and UTV trails along the coast. Condado Lagoon is the calm-water spot for kayaks and paddleboards.

We run boats and airport transfers here ourselves, so this is the area we know best. Below are the highest-rated tours in the San Juan area, across different kinds of activity, so you can compare before you book.

Good to know before you go

  • Isla Verde is next to SJU airport. Old San Juan and the cruise piers are a short drive farther west; allow extra time at rush hour.
  • Uber works well across the metro area. It gets harder to find a ride back once you leave it, so plan your return before any day trip.
  • Most water activities here run 30 minutes to 2 hours, which makes them easy to fit in before a flight or during a port call.
  • Jet skis and UTVs are priced per vehicle, not per person. Check how many riders each one allows.

Which one fits your trip?

  • First time on a jet ski, or short on time: the 30-minute Jet Ski Freestyle from Isla Verde.
  • Travelling with small kids or grandparents: the Mangrove Forest Boat Cruise is calm water, 30 minutes and the lowest price on the list.
  • You would rather eat than get wet: the Sunset Walk & Taste food tour, or Rum Runners if cocktails are the point.
  • Quiet morning on the water: the clear kayak tour in Condado Lagoon.
  • Want a guide and more distance on a jet ski: the Guided Jet Ski Tour at 1 hour 20 minutes.
