- Welcome back to our Royal Caribbean Symphony of Seas cruise adventure! Today we went to Old San Juan Puerto Rico, which ended up being our favorite port of the entire cruise. We loved soaking in the culture & exploring San Juan by talking the streets and trying Puerto Rican foods. We end the night back on the ship with a dinner at Jamie's Italian & iSkate 2.0!

![You Can Do THIS On A Cruise!? [Symphony of the Seas Vlog 7]](/img/tr.png)
Puerto Rico is one of those places that just makes you feel so happy when there. It’s such a gorgeous place. The nightlife is also super fun.
Agreed. Would love to check out the nightlife
It's good to see the island is on the recovery after all they've been through. The pigeons were hilarious!
Haha Kitra I think got scared when they all came for her
The beginning I was thinking of Home Alone with the Bird lady
Haha I was thinking the same thing when we were there
That's exactly what I immediately thought too! Love it!
I love how you guys go to local places to support those businesses. Looking forward to the next one. You both sound and look so happy! Love it!!
We love exploring the local businesses! Thanks Pamela
Hiiii, I love your channel, im from Puerto Rico and im really happy to see you enjoying our island so much. Pro-tip to find the best mallorcas a local panaderia(bakery) would be the best place. The family selling limbers are the nicest people, thank you for supporting them.
We’ll have to check it out next time
@@OrdinaryAdventures you kept mentioning shaved ice that is a different treat called Piragua. That’s shaved ice with syrup. Limbre is a frozen treat with juices of the fruit I think.
@@OrdinaryAdventures I really recommend piraguas (shaved ice with syrup). If you guys are coming back to stay for a week or so I highly recommend leaving the Metropolitan area to visit el Yunque(our Rainforest) and visit the beaches of Luquillo and Fajardo.
Where did you find the Limbers place?
@@gabrielescalante9351 yes there is so much more to do and see outside of San Juan and old San Juan.
Glad you liked Puerto Rico! As a puertorican myself I can confirm you went to the best places! Lol! You guys rock! 💪🏻
Yay
That mofongo looked soooooo amazing! Must have!
Thanks for supporting the local economy . We are resilient and hard workers .
Of course
Glad that you guys enjoyed our beautiful island. 😎🤙🏻
I love PR
You guys this video made me so emotional. I moved to the states when i was 15 from Puerto Rico! Seeing you guys enjoy my island and loving the culture really moved me. Thank you for video it made me feel closer to home! Def go back to the island and id be so happy to recommend other delicious local treat!!!
Awwww thanks so much.
Most beautiful comment ever!
This is my favorite episode of the series. I miss visiting family there.
😁 this was our favorite day of the trip too
Loved this video! Thank you so much for showing that PR is open for business! As a Puerto Rican that lives here, I appreciate the support! As a token of my appreciation I will mail you some Mallorcas :)
🙌
It was so nice to see the pigeon love Kitra; thank you!
The history of them is heartbreaking and they deserve kindness.
❤
💯
YAAAYYYYY!!!! We have been loving this series. You're giving us all kinds of ideas for future adventures we'd like to do!
Glad you’re enjoying it
It makes me so happy to see how you both fell in love with Puerto Rico ❤️ I'm half Puerto Rican and from NYC but when I'm on the island it's the love the people give, the amazing food, the lively music, and the scenery that makes you feel like you're home 🇵🇷You have so much more of PR to explore from the beaches, rainforests, towns ... etc. and so much more delicious food to try!!! Can't wait to see more adventures from PR in the future 😊
Also, love the different bucket hats on this trip 😁
We definitely want to go back to PR someday for sure
Hello ordinary adventures, I am a puertorican who subscribe recently to your Chanel. I am so happy that you guys had the opportunity to come to our beautiful island and experience our wonderful culture. 🇵🇷❤️
❤️ thanks so much, we loved it there
Man, all those birds, I was waiting for Alfred Hitchcock to come strolling by.
😝
OMG!!! I’m glad you guys enjoyed our food and the couple of hours you stayed here. You guys should definitely come back and explore the rest of the island!!
We wish we could have stayed longer. Maybe one day
In the U.K. ( well the north east where I’m from) we call Limbers, ice cups. They were always a treat as a child in the summer, usually home made. They were better than ice pops as you got more and we used to have them made with cola, lemonade or cherryade!
Oh interesting
Glad you guys enjoyed PR! I used to live in Bayamon. I love Viejo San Juan!
It’s so beautiful there
I was Really looking forward to this vlog-when i was growing up in New York, my family and I vacationed in San Juan three times but I haven’t been able to go back since the mid-80’s…I regret that because watching some of this brought SO many memories back (especially my Mom getting attacked JUST LIKE KITRA by those Utterly NUTS pigeons!)
😂 those pigeons were hungry
You guys it warms my heart so much, Im a local from PuertoRico ama seeing you loved it here. Ir means so much to me!!! Gracias 🙏🏻
Thanks so much Amy
Tag yourself - I’m Kitra saying “I love you” to literally every cat she sees 😂😍
🐈
I’m PUERTORRIQUEN last year we couldn’t travel so this t
Years I already went twice to Puerto Rico n I still miss it 😩 can’t wait to go back to my beautiful island n eat n eat n eat, to the beaches, rivers, music n go shopping. Thanks for loving my island can’t wait to see you soon. ♥️🇵🇷
It’s a beautiful place
when Kitra says DUDE! that means she is amazed
Ha
Thank you for visiting! It makes me so happy to know you loved your time here! I live on the Southeast coast of the island (about an hour from there) but I love going to San Juan and whenever I'm there I have a hard time trying not to pet all the cats...
The cats are everywhere
Hi!! I’m from Puerto Rico love your videos I was waiting for this video so happy you love our little island I hope you guys can comeback someday to try the Mallorcas and to enjoy a little bit more 🇵🇷❤️
We will someday
Oh my goodness!! The pigeons! How fun!
🐦
I start my work assignment from San Juan on October 20th, boarding Grandeur of the Seas, now I know what to expect, thanks!
Have fun!
I saw this and thought, "Oh man, I hope they went to Barrachina for the Pina Coladas..." and hooray, you did!
😁
"Mayorcas" are more like a pastry like a donut or danish. But yes you can get them in the morning with a "pocillo" of coffee
Ah okay 👍
Thank you for showing the beatiful Old San Juan of the Island of PR. ¡Enjoy!
Thanks for watching Luis we loved it there
Wow that looked like the best day ever! Definitely gonna find Barrachinna for the Pina Colada when I go to Puerto Rico! And that dinner looked amazing! And Alfred Hitchcock would be proud of your version of The Birds🤣
😂
Hi! Thanks for sharing your visit with us! I love your video, so cheerful and well edited! I grew up in Old San Juan and I do love the architecture as well; tropical during the day and magical at night ✨ The limbers 🍧 person is THE BEST!! My favorite is the coco 🥥 flavor 😝 Also I am so surprised to see 🥰 local crafts of my favorite shop in your video at 22:04! The shop is Puerto Rican Art & Crafts 🧡 on Fortaleza St…. I actually have the jíbaro man roasting the pig 🐷 and use it as part of my xmas decor (since it’s very big in our culture) ❣️ Hopefully on your next trip back the mallorcas will be available 🤍💛🤍 they are soo yummy and definitely worth the try.
I want to try the coco flavor next time.
Next time you eat limber try to turn it around and eat the button to top that way the flavor will be more intense. Nice to see our island and that y’all enjoy it. Blessings 🙏🏽
Oh good pro tip!
Thank you for showing up the wonders of this island.
🙌
Thank y’all for making such a great video about my Island. I’m happy y’all enjoyed! 🇵🇷 ❤️
Thanks Victoria, it was amazing
Wow! San Juan looks beautiful!
It’s so beautiful! 😍
That pidgeon throng was cray cray! ❤
And I'd definitely be looking for that old woman selling icees out of her window. 😲🙄😉🤣
My favorite part was the stray cats. 🐈🐈 That's always the hardest part of vaca for us is leaving our pawed kids so it's always wonderful to meet a few along the way. 💞
Glad you guys had an amazing time! Had fun watching you. 💕
-Aimee
Thanks for watching 🐦
I love Kitra even more now.. Welcome to our PR. It's beautiful. Glad ur enjoyed ur time in PR
❤️
Yessss it's time. Hi again from Puerto Rico. Thanks for the video, lovely. You have to come to the west of the island, our precious beaches and places and also the food. I hope you enjoy your trip to this part of my Puerto Rico 💞
Thanks so much ❤️
16:23 this giving me "The Birds" flashbacks lol
😂 🦅
Yay! Another cruise vlog installment ❤💯🔥😊
🚢
I LOVE Mofongo. I get it every time I’m in Puerto Rico.
So good!
Wow the pigeons. Amazing video..live it lots of fun
So excited you loved San Juan! I hope you can visit P.R. again soon! & finally try the Mallorca sandwich- my fave bfast-wich! My hubby & I are from Puerto Rico & it's comforting seeing recent videos of the island. 😃Your vacation vlogs are so much fun! I know you'll love the food at the kioskitos (food stands) outside the island. And try MAVI - a delicious fermented drink popular in the island.
We’ll have to check those out next time. Thanks Eunice
OMG, I live there!!!!! I'm so glad you loved our little island and you got to taste some of our traditional dishes. I wish I could have seen you
It was so beautiful
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. It great to see you having fun and enjoying new experiences of culture and food.
Thanks
glad you enjoy part of our island!!!! Bless you!!
Thanks for having us
Great food, love that you check out local favorites. So fun with pigeons! I definitely want to visit Puerto rico
We loved it and highly reccomend it
I’m from Puerto Rico, this one made me feel happy!! Puerto Rico is paradise
💯
We love your video,thanks from all puertorricans.You will always be welcomed in our Island.
Yay we will be back for sure
You guys look like you had such a wonderful time. Thank you for sharing this with us!! Beautiful Puerto Rico!!
❤️
The old ladies and men are always the best at making limbers. I grew up buying from an old man that lived near the summer camp I was in.
Next time you guys come you guys have to come to the west coast!! There's this restaurant called Don Maceta that has delicious huge portions of food. Buying empanadillas from small local places is always the best!
🤤
So cool you visited my home Puerto Rico! 🇵🇷 In case you still want to try Mayorcas, and you are visiting Florida, there are a lot on puertorican bakeries around Orlando/Kissimmee that sell mayorcas! There are delicious!
Oh good to know!
Loving this series so far Peter and Kitra! I have just booked my cruise on Symphony and am so excited! I love how you guys support the local businesses with your souvenirs and are trying to help out after the hurricane and pandemic battered these islands. You're guys' vlogs have been the best I've seen on this ship and mainly any other cruise vlog I've watched. I love how you guys go into so much detail about everything from the restaurants to the artwork, keep up the excellent work and amazing video editing as well Kitra!
Thanks so much. You will have an amazing trip
I'm a big fan here from Puerto Rico. So happy that you visited. Sending lots of love.
Thanks for having us
Please do come back It’s very affordable and the main island along with the many other islotes that make our archipiélago are awesome Oh and the mountain towns with their rivers and deserts and cave are paradise
We definitely want to return someday
I moved from PR to California two years ago and I'm so happy you loved my little Island. I'm always craving mallorcas, I can't find them anywhere here
Ha we couldn’t find them anywhere there
Welcome to Puerto Rico !!!!! 🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷❤️❤️❤️
Thank you
My favorite cruise video yet!! My mother's family is from PR and I truly love how you showed the beauty of old San Juan. Thanks ♥️
Thank you so much
Guuuuuuurl, thank you for including some sweet Latin beats!!! 💃💃💃 I think Puerto Rico has been my favorite so far as well of the cruise destinations. Thanks for sharing this cruise with us. Especially loving it because I'll probably never go on one. Hehehe 💗
Thanks so much BB-B33P. Why would you never go?
@@OrdinaryAdventures I'm terrified of the open water. Lol I'm almost certain it has something to do with almost drowning as a kid. Also, knowing about the fish/creatures that swim below in the twilight zone and midnight zone. 😝
Ok, you guys...I loved this stop in PR. How about a cruise line sponsor? I'm thinking Kitra would say that wouldn't hurt her feelings! 👌
We’d love a cruise line sponsor! Maybe someday
Love seeing my country again, I haven’t been there in a long time ❤️❤️❤️ and seeing you both excited about it 🥰
It was great being there
Always love when people love visiting my homeland of 🇵🇷. Your video put a huge smile in my face each time you both enjoyed the food and drinks 🍹. Awesome video!
Happy to see cruises are back in San Juan
Thanks so much.
13:37 I'm actually really diggN the new bucket hat yo
Thanks
I also love pidgeons! Pretty much all birds except seagulls, if they steal your food or poop on you XD
😂
I’m from the Island 🇵🇷❤️ thank you for this amazing video. It makes me happy that you had an amazing time 😊
Yaay! You guys were here🇵🇷Y’all gotta come back & experience everything ❤️
We want to
do you guys edit your own videos??? if so Bravo!
Yes Kitra edits all the videos herself
Do you have to have a passport? We did Galaxy Edge and WDW after your videos, now we are planning a cruise.
If your cruise starts and ends in the US you don’t have to have a passport, but you do have to have a copy of your birth certificate. I’m going on a cruise on Halloween!
Yes what Red said. That said if something were to go wrong and say you’d need to fly home early or something, you’d need a passport so while it’s not necessary it’s recommended. That said I have done one cruise in the past without one
Thanks Red and Ordinary
Hoping for a March cruise. Gotta book soon!!
That solo guitar was magic
🎸
Yes! I was waiting for this. I really enjoyed watching your Symphony of Seas videos it really taught about different places I never knew about like the Yoda Guy and his movie exhibit from your last video. You guys are awesome.
Thanks so much. Two more videos coming
@@OrdinaryAdventures Awesome 👍
I’m so glad you stopped in Puerto Rico. I’m from Puerto Rico but now I live in Texas. So glad that you go to experience a taste of the island. ❤️❤️ Just started watching your videos a couple of months ago and I absolutely love you guys and your puppies are the cutest!!
Thanks so much. We loved it there
Omg Kitra and the pigeons! That was great. You guys are the best. I love your channel. Thank you for sharing all your experiences with us.
Thanks for watching Jennifer

You guys are so amazing! I just started following you and we love your videos especially this one being my home away from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 we were just there in July and had an amazing time!! You guys definitely hit some of the best spots in your day in San Juan! I’d love to one day see a video of you guys doing a 5-7 day stay there. That would be a great video to watch! Puerto Rico is so awesome and fun with so much to do.
Bless you both.
Nice video, great info. Lots of fun. Thanks and take care.
Thanks Karen
Thank you for loving our island. You guys should come back and visit different places around the island, you will love it!
We’d love to someday
Omg this made me so happy/proud/homesick. I’m a born and raised puertorican living in Denmark and I haven’t been able to visit home in almost 10 years. I’m so happy you enjoyed yourselves Puerto Rico is definitely a special place. 🌴🧡
Very special
My Beautiful Island 🏝 Thanks You Guys For Showing The Awesomeness Of Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 QUE VIVA PUERTO RICO
🙌
You guys are like watching a sitcom at times. I love how you don't edit to make everything perfect. The fog part had me laughing so hard.
😂 thanks
Puerto Rico looks dreamy. I love the cruise vlogs!💙
Thanks so much Janet
Am glad you guys had a great time visiting PR you have to go back and stay longer!!!!
Totally
Very Happy you guys had the chance to visit our Island there is much more to explore. You definitely come back some other time. 😊
We want to for sure. It was beautiful
If you're looking to actually spend time in San Juan, there's a hotel next door to the El San Juan that's a little dated, but it's reasonable and clean. The ESJ Towers. We've stayed there a couple times. The beaches are all public in Puerto Rico, so if you want to go to the beach, it doesn't matter where you stay, you can always get to the beach. But the ESJ Towers were always nice and accommodating and very very very reasonable. It's in the touristy area of town, not near old San Juan where a lot of the good local stuff is, but it's easy to get to there, and there's a lot of nice local places near those hotels. The last time we were there, El Castillo was worth the stop too.
Thanks for the info
