See & EAT the BEST of San Juan in 4 Hours! (MSC World America Port Day)
Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator documents a day in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico, while sailing on the MSC World America. The excursion begins with a private tasting tour through Old San Juan, where the creator explores historical landmarks such as Columbus Plaza, San Francisco Church, and the Cathedral of San Juan. The tour includes a hands-on culinary experience where the creator learns to prepare mojitos and traditional Puerto Rican dishes, including mofongo made with mashed yuca and a chicken stew. After the walking tour, the creator returns to the ship to experience various onboard amenities. This includes a visit to the pool area, a review of the main dining room where the red snapper is described as overcooked, and a highly positive recommendation for the ship's pizza. The day concludes with explorations of the ship's entertainment venues, such as the Gin Project bar, the comedy club, and the Queen Symphonic show, as well as a late-night visit to the karaoke venue.

Creator's Key Takeaways
That's why we do not do the main dining room. The fish looked pretty. Very well-plated. severely overcooked. That's inedible.
We walked almost 10,000 steps so far in San Juan today. And now we want to cool off, sit in the pool, have a cold beverage, and relax the rest of the day.
If you come here and you want a souvenir, buying from here from a local artisan is better than buying from a gift shop and I totally agree with that.
That is delicious. M. There is so much flavor in there in that stew. And then you've got that great texture from the yoka. Great meal.
