Review summary

We have done this cruise a few times. We like the port stops but going to San Juan is not so fun, coming from Michigan. We keep saying we won't take a southern out of San Juan again but then i find a deal and off we go, but then they get you on the flight.

Been on Adventure so many times don't know what to say. Crew has always been friendly,we even ran into staff we had on different cruises before.

Ok thanks! also is it easy to find a taxi to get back to the port from the fort?

Hello Selenaa, the fort is very close to the port (about 10-15 minutes driving) 2 hours will give you plenty of time.

I'm also from Michigan and going in 9 days. I want to head out to the fort in San Juan before the ship leaves. Do you remember how far away the fort is away from the cruise port and is an 1-2 hours a good amount of time to spend there.
