The Bacardi Distillery in Puerto Rico is located in Cataño, just across the bay from Old San Juan. It’s known as the world’s largest premium rum distillery and has a rich history dating back to 1862 when Don Facundo Bacardí Massó founded it. The distillery offers guided tours where visitors can learn about the rum-making process, Bacardi’s history, and enjoy tastings of their various rums.
During the tour, visitors typically explore the fermentation and distillation processes, learn about the aging of rum in oak barrels, and see the iconic Bacardi bat logo displayed throughout the facility. The tour often concludes with a visit to the on-site gift shop where guests can purchase Bacardi products and souvenirs.
The Bacardi Distillery is not only a popular tourist attraction but also an important part of Puerto Rico’s cultural and economic heritage, showcasing the island’s connection to the world of rum production.

2 months agoWe really enjoyed this tour in PR last year. It is a popular tour for tourists. The staff at Bacardi are very welcoming and anxious to please their guests. After signing in, we were given a wristband for ID, a coin each for a free drink, and shown to a tram that drove us to the correct building. We chose the tasting tour, which was $50 apiece. We enjoyed the rum tasting and distillery tours very much. The drinks that the Mixologist made for us were very good! We relaxed on comfortable seating and chatted with other tourists while sipping our drinks. We got to see where the distillery and barrels were kept and watched a video. It was worth it. There is also a gift shop, where you can also buy Bacardi to take home, which we did. This is a fun excursion to make while in PR.

a month agoWould highly recommend visiting Casa Bacardi when in Puerto Rico. When I visit new places, I always love touring local institutions and the tour offered here was one of the best that I've ever been on. The Founder's Experience was amazing, from the stellar tour guide to all the amazing tasting experiences that were included in the tour. I gained a lot of knowledge about Bacardi's long history, the process of rum making, and amazing pairings with Bacardi's wide variety of rums. They also have a great gift shop where you can get bottles engraved and buy tons of cool souvenirs. Once again, I'd highly recommend visiting Casa Bacardi during your trip to San Juan.

a month agoIt was a great experience from start to finish! Alexander, our guide and teacher, answered all of our questions and was excited to be there. You can tell he loved his job and speaking about Bacardí. We found out that the entire plant is off the grid and they generate their own electricity which was so interesting. Plus the drinks were strong and delicious. Really fun class and tour. Would highly recommend.
