The European Legacy in Aguada tour explores the early colonization and introduction of Christianity to Puerto Rico. The tour begins at Aguada Bay, where Christopher Columbus, European settlers, and Christianity first arrived on November 19, 1493. Over the course of four hours, participants enjoy a combination of short walks and sightseeing, guided by detailed stories of the island's early history. After this, the tour continues with a short drive in an air-conditioned vehicle to the site of the first settlers, where one of the oldest Spanish archaeological sites in the Americas can be explored.
The journey then follows the Europeans’ discovery trail to the founding site of the fifth town in 1692. Inside the San Francisco de Assis Parish, visitors learn about the town’s resilience through its religious art and architecture, and a brief walking tour highlights why the town is considered the boutique center of the West. The tour concludes with a visit to a local eatery to savor one of Puerto Rico’s favorite snacks, enjoyed by locals for over 30 years. Participants leave with a rich understanding of Aguada’s historical and cultural legacy.
