Talking Buildings Of Old San Juan: A Self-guided Audio Tour

A lot of walking and maybe a few hills, but an absolute easy follow tour. I throughly enjoyed myself. Best $7 spent in a long time.

About the only thing this is good for is a route of where to go in Old San Juan. Otherwise the information was lengthy and kind of not needed.

This tour begins to head in the opposite direction of what you would consider Old San Juan. Perhaps it circles back but the long walks between destinations was too much for the kiddos so we abandoned the tour and explored based on where the other live tour guides were taking patrons. Great starting point

This would have been a great tour that allowed us to take our time however, the speed in which the guide went through things made it difficult for me to keep up and a few of the stops were actually closed or blocked off. I’m not sure there is a way to update the tour based on these things but it is what I recommend.

This was a great and informative tour. We loved the individuality of all the students that put it together. We loved it.

Terrible. It forced you to stay only on THEIR path. I prefer guided tours that number the sites and let you skip around from number to number. Their map had us backtracking several times. We found it inconvenient to follow their path, but we couldn’t step out of line without it telling us to turn around or go back. Ugh!! We bailed because we were so disappointed it would not let us skip to the sites WE wanted to hear about!!

When you walked off track it was difficult to pick up where you left off. I would suggest providing an actual itinerary of the tour so people can ask for directions if lost.

The mobile doesn’t work it asked me to pay again their was nowhere to add code mess up my whole trip

The students do such an excellent job in this audio tour - 100% recommend! Directions are easy to follow and you get a full experience of Old San Juan.

I wanted to like this tour because I thought it a wonderful idea to involve kids in making it. However, I was very disappointed. It was difficult to hear much of the narrative because some of the kids' voices were not very clear. Many of the stops were simply there to encourage you to keep going (unnecessary with a map and a GPS locator). When the information about the buildings was provided, it did not go beyond the basic facts (year(s) built, remodeled, etc.) with very little historical or cultural context provided. In particular, Ponce de Leon was the first governor of PR but that hardly makes him a heroic figure.

Old San Juan was very informative. We did have problems with the gps however. Our location was not accurate it seems.

I really enjoyed the audio tour of Old San Juan! The only hiccup was that there was construction on a road that threw the tour off a bit. But I was able to put in the location where I was and started the tour back from there. I could stop and go as I pleased! Highly recommended.

The precise location. As you moved the “guide” will move and start talking about the building once you got there. Incredible. Short and sweet stories. We love it!

This self-guided tour is highly recommended for independent travelers who want their own pace. It is a very informative tour where each point of interest is a history lesson. The recording needs to be downloaded beforehand. It is clear and understandable. Try it out! Thank you, Talking Buildings of Old San Juan!

So fun!! I had a wonderful time walking around with all this well-researched history in my ear, and the kids saying it made it so much cuter!! So much better than a tour because I got to stop and shop or wander off whenever I wanted. Also felt very safe walking around as a solo young woman.

The app didn't work. Tried for an hour just aimlessly walking around along the path it gave but no interactive points ever started talking after the Teatro Tapia.

Half of the locations didn't work. Ended up cutting it off cause stopped working on the third location.

The info was great however it didn’t take into account of street closures so I was getting info for the wrong places and it kept on telling me I was lost

This is seriously the cutest thing ever. My friend and I had a blast walking Old San Juan listening to these adorable 6th graders give each building's history in 1st person. The flexibility is awesome doing this vs a guided tour b/c you can start and stop it as needed, which we did take a pit stop in a cute little bar for a mojito along the way! Much better experience and at a cheaper price equals win-win!!
