Rum Runners Craft Cocktail Tour
What your day looks like
Ever wondered why they call Puerto Rico the Rum Capital of the world? Then join us for a night of drunk history on our 2-hour craft cocktail tour through the streets of Old San Juan. We’ll lead you through a crash course of three different eras in the drinking history and culture of Puerto Rico, as we sip on creative rum-infused concoctions. Walk the cobblestones of Old San Juan as you make your way to the next watering hole and discover the city’s ‘spirited’ side on this fun, informal yet informative drinking tour. You’ll rub shoulders with fellow drink enthusiasts at historic local haunts and meet the owners, industry experts, and master mixologists at each location in Old San Juan to go behind the scenes on this unique cocktail experience. Join us on this roving happy hour adventure. By the end of the tour, you’ll know all the best watering holes in town and will finish with plenty of time (and insider information) to continue the fun with a night on the town. Salud!

What travelers are saying
The tour was a great time with fun people. Ricardo was informative and entertaining.
Really great tour. Our guide was great - not just focusing on the drinking aspect but also the history of San Juan. The tour was entertaining and fun. Would do it again!
Nahiomy was amazing at the tour provided! She gave so much history and didn't make it were you would lose interest. I personally didn't like one drink at the 2nd stop but it was fixed very quickly. Overall if we come back we will look for booking this tour again.
