11 tours · €79–€163 per person · ★ 4.9
A food tour in San Juan is a walk through the old city that ends as a full meal, and the 11 here were picked by hand from every listing rated 4.5★ or higher. Prices run from €79 per person for a short infused rum tasting with local fries to €163 for a sunset walking food tour with several stops and drinks in the price. Most of the page is Old San Juan tastings, morning or evening, with history between the empanadillas; the rest is cooking classes in a family home, hands on, with a bottle of wine or a carafe of sangria on the table.
A quick way to choose: count the stops and the drinks, because the tasting walks range from a couple of bites to enough food for dinner, and tell the operator about allergies when you book, since the menus are fixed in advance and one walk cannot cater for vegans at all. Pickup is almost never included, the cooking classes sit outside the old city and one of them has no ride hailing service nearby. The best reviewed San Juan food tours come first below.
