Caribbean. This destination combines culture, history, and natural beauty in one exceptional
tourist spot and you cannot miss it.
Get ready to enjoy its white sand beaches, explore tropical jungles, and party all night in San
Juan. Today, we have the perfect guide for you to enjoy your trip to this Caribbean Paradise.
BEFORE YOUR TRIP
Since Puerto Rico is associated with the United States, you might need a visa to come in. This
documentation isn’t necessary for all countries, Chileans don’t need a visa to get into Puerto
Rico. However, you must take a valid passport.
Puerto Rico has wonderful tropical weather all year long and it has high temperatures so make
sure you pack light clothing, a raincoat, comfortable shoes, sunscreen, and bug spray.
The official currency of this destination is the US dollar, and the prices for a lot of things are
very similar to the United States.
Although public transportation is pretty good, and there are taxis and platforms, we would
recommend you rent a car and explore this island on your own time. Even though the official
language is Spanish, most people, especially in the more touristy areas, will be able to speak
English.
