Condado to the Cataño ferry terminal in Old San Juan? It’s about 2.75 miles, or a $12 taxi ride.

We’re going to San Juan next month. Hopefully nothing has changed as far as the tour and transportation. We will be staying on Ashford Ave in Condada, how far is that from the Old San Juan ferry?

No reservations necessary. Just show up and enjoy your free drinks until it’s your turn for the tour.

We justed cruised 2 weeks ago to Old San Juan, read the comments before we sailed and went to the Bacardi factory. Thank you so much for your info. We took the water ferry for 50 cents and a $3.00 taxi ride. Bacardi Factory had a great tour and the drinks weren’t bad either. We went with 17 people and all enjoyed the excursion without having to pay 4 times that amount to the cruiseline! Thanks again!

That really depends on at which pier your cruise ships docks.

If it’s one of the piers in Old San Juan, then the walk is less than 5 minutes.

If you dock at the Pan American pier (on the south side of the bay across from Old San Juan), you’d have to take a taxi to get to the ferry pier. If you’re at the Pan Am pier, I don’t know which makes more sense: taking a taxi to the ferry pier, then the ferry to Catano, and then another taxi to Bacardi, OR to just take a taxi directly from the Pan Am pier to Bacardi.
