Actually you don’t need a real ID driver’s license to go to Puerto Rico. You’ll only need one beginning may 7, 2025. The Puerto Rico government is spending millions of dollars to let people know about that. Whatever your immigration situation is, if you have a REGULAR driver’s license, you’re good. I work at an immigration law office and I know many many people in different immigration situations that went there and it was all good. Another note is that a Puerto Rican friend told me that USCIS officials oftentimes would ask for your passport because they don’t even know that it’s not a requirement. You just tell them that Puerto Rico is a US territory and you’re good to go.

Thank you, Brik, for sharing a detailed list of things and ways to travel in Puerto Rico. I have not been there since I was 11. Back then it only took 2 hours to get from New York to Puerto Rico on Pan Am airlines, but now it takes almost 6 hours. I am now 60 years old and would love to know where my grandparents/great grandparents are buried.

@Emy53 9 месяцев назад

I was in Moca in 2020, just before Maria hit the island. The weather was gorgeous and honestly, the only problem we had was that GPS wasn't the hest. We ended up in the winding roads of the mountains and lost for at least an hour. Stay on the main road and never go into the mountains especially at night. No street lights and dangerous roads with no railings.

@BriksTravelGuides 8 месяцев назад

Hey!! Definitely, the mountain roads can be pretty intimidating at night and in general. No illumination, some locals know these streets so well that they go flying up and down these roads which can be stressful. However, I hope that doesn’t deter anyone from visiting the municipalities in the center mountain region of the island. They’re some of the most charming and naturally beautiful places on the whole island. 😍🙌🏼🇵🇷

Liquillo Beach Beach is considered to be one of the best beaches in Puerto Rico. Then there's Crash Boat Beach and Combate Beach in Cabo Rojo. Also there's Aguadilla Beach in Aguadilla. You can visit the beaches in Arecibo where there was the biggest Radio Telescope. You can even go horseback riding. You will see people riding on horseback in the streets of Puerto Rico especially on the highways.

@BriksTravelGuides 11 месяцев назад

Thank you!! That’s great! You could try renting a car visiting the west side of the island (Isabela, Aguadilla, Cabo Rojo) and it’s beaches. It also depends on the things you get to cover while you’re friends are visiting.

@kennielsen3896 Год назад

Nice video. My sister lives in St. Croix and wants me to move there, but health insurance is impossible there as the affordable care act excludes St. Croix. So Puerto Rico is a good option, especially as I speak Spanish. This video seems to present a viable alternative. I do have plans to move to Spain when my house is sold, but always nice to know there are places in the US that are viable.

@BriksTravelGuides Год назад

Hey Ken! Great to help you out in that decision. I’ve been to Spain and I have to say that it’s not a half bad option either haha I loved Madrid! 😄🙌🏼🇵🇷🇪🇸

What happened to the "Carros publicos"? That was a good affordable option to go from town to towns.

@BriksTravelGuides Год назад

Hey Benjamin! I haven’t seen the “Pisa y corre” in a while. They might still exist, but I’m not sure. Actually, after this video San Juan launched a new free “trolley” system which I haven’t tried but seems to cover a large part of San Juan. I believe La Sultana still exists, which is a bus that travels all the way to Mayagüez and back through the north.

@LearnWithLilibeth Год назад

Hey!! If you’re near the ferry terminal, it might be worth it to see if they are available at the ferry terminal. If you’re in San Juan, it might not be worth the 1 hour or maybe more drive to see if they have tickets available. I would try my best to get them online. Unfortunately that could also be a pain sometimes. Hope that helps! 🙏🏼🇵🇷

hi! i was wondering what counts as the metro area as i'll be staying in Toa Baja. Is everything there quite touristy and/or open late?

@BriksTravelGuides Год назад

Hey! I would say Toa Baja is not considered the metro area. If you’re staying there, I would highly suggest renting a car to get around. Additionally, Toa Baja is at least 40-45 minutes away from Old San Juan and Condado (the main truistic areas). If you are renting a car and if you’re planning to visit other areas apart from San Juan like the beautiful beaches on the north and north west side of PR, Toa Baja might be a good place to stay at. Hope that helps!

muchas gracias por la información. me quedé con algunas dudas. si alguien me las puede contestar, se lo agradecería bastante 1. quisiera saber si en Puerto Rico es más común usar el sistema métrico internacional o el sistema estadounidense de medidas? 2. allá se pueden conectar los celulares Xiaomi al sistema de telefonía. la última vez que fui a la Florida, no me funcionaba mi celular, pero de pronto allá sea diferente. 3. adicional a Uber, funcionan otras apps como indriver o didi? 4. existe la posibilidad de alquilar una moto en vez de carro para recorrer la isla? (soy algo preguntón pero se les agradecería cualquier información que me puedan dar ^^)

@BriksTravelGuides 11 месяцев назад

Hola James! Gracias por comentar! 1. Se usa el sistema imperial (USA), aunque las autopistas están en kilometros y los precios de gasolina en litros. Es un poco extraño 😂 2. No estoy seguro, honestamente. Puede que no funcione ya que muchas de las compañias moviles son similares a las de USA, pero puedes verificar. 3. El único ride sharing app que funciona en PR es Uber y solo funciona en el area metropolitana. Te pueden llevar desde el area metro a cualquier lugar de la isla, pero no vas a poder usarlo de vuelta. 4. Creo que hay rentals de scooters/vespas pero no estoy muy seguro. Seguramente esa opción esta limitada porque los seguros serian muy altos, pero puedes verificar. (Disculpa que no tenga todas las contestaciones a tus preguntas 😅. Espero que te hayan ayudado algo por lo menos).

Is digital payments popular in stores there?

@BriksTravelGuides 2 месяца назад

Hey! It’s way more popular now after covid because of contactless payments. My general perception is that 80% of places accept some sort of digital payment method like Apple Pay or contactless cards. There might be small vendors that accept a payment method called ATH Movil, but that is only reserved for Puerto Rico bank accounts.

Will there be a problem with T-Mobile service?

@BriksTravelGuides Год назад

Forgot to mention T-Mobile! No problem with them. They connect automatically. You won’t need to buy a SIM if you’re traveling from the USA to PR using T-Mobile. Thanks for the question, Xavier! 😄🙌🏼🇵🇷

Is the enhanced ID required or can you get to the island with a regular license

@BriksTravelGuides 8 месяцев назад

I believe you can use a regular ID for now. Check the travel guidelines online to make sure.

@qanonbrasil5255 7 месяцев назад

US residents flying from US territory to Puerto Rico need a government-issued photo ID, such as driver's license. However, that driver's license will have to be Real ID compliant by May 7, 2025.

Is Uber expensive?

@BriksTravelGuides Год назад

Hey! Depends on where you’re comparing it to. I personally would say yes, but it might be a bit cheaper than big cities like NYC.

@pocrenae Год назад

I thought it was cheap in PR

@tamarawaite1981 Год назад

Again. let me say how I enjoyed and learned from your informative video. I simply can't figure out how to give money to you or anybody else on "Buy me a coffee". It's crazy stupid! They are all about content creators, not donators. Maybe you need to post a specific link.

@BriksTravelGuides Год назад

I’m glad you enjoyed the video and found it informative! The link is in the description on all of my videos 😄🙏🏼

@lugoesfar 6 месяцев назад

Is this video misleading in that you don't need a real i.d. to fly from the u.s. until 2025? The video says this is currently enacted.

@BriksTravelGuides 6 месяцев назад

Hey! Sorry for the confusion. It can be another normal drivers license, for now. Thank you for the question!

@Dudelikescake 6 месяцев назад

Yeah it was originally supposed to be a few years ago but got postponed multiple times. Currently you do not need real id.

@SL-wm1jc 2 года назад

A real ID is not required...yet

Hey! I read that it was going to be required at some point so I thought I’d future proof the video haha but thanks for the feedback!! 😄🙌🏼🇵🇷

Dengue, which is carried by mosquitoes, generally is more prevalent at a certain moment during the year. It’s generally not an issue for people visiting the island.

No one asks for ID at the airport to passengers arriving on domestic flights. International travelers must go through customs like everywhere else.

@BriksTravelGuides Год назад

But you do have to show an ID with your boarding pass to TSA.

@TomasMAcevedo Год назад

@@BriksTravelGuides Isn’t that how it works will any domestic flight regardless of where it’s going? No one asks for IDs on arrival.

@diegorios3491 Год назад

What about when leaving PR to us mainland ? Do you clear customs or just tsa?

@TomasMAcevedo Год назад

Puerto Rico is a US territory. There is no customs when flying within the US (flying within the US includes Puerto Rico). You show your ID like you do when boarding any flight in the US.

@ReyRodriguezvidrionativo 7 месяцев назад

About 95% of your comments are negative, looks like you don't want people to visit Puerto Rico. Driving there isn't any different than driving in Chicago, Indy or any other mayor city in the USA. Like any other destination it has the good the bad and the ugly. Lets highlight the good with some practical tips for safety....
