Puerto Rico travel guide
About One Week in Puerto Rico
Learn what One Week in Puerto Rico covers, how the site researches travel information and how affiliate funding fits into the guide.
One Week in Puerto Rico is an English-language travel planning site focused on helping visitors make practical decisions about Puerto Rico.
The site is operated and published by Winning Leads AB, a Swedish company. The public contact route for the site is info@oneweekinpuertorico.com.
What the site covers
The site treats Puerto Rico as a complete destination rather than a San Juan-only city guide.
Our guides focus on the decisions travelers need to make before and during a trip:
- how long to stay;
- how to structure a one-week itinerary;
- where to stay;
- whether to rent a car;
- which regions fit together;
- which beaches and islands match the trip;
- how to plan San Juan, El Yunque and the east coast;
- when a tour or guided activity solves a real logistics problem;
- how Culebra and Vieques differ;
- how to use ferries, flights and local transport without building a fragile schedule.
The goal is to make planning easier, not to create the largest possible number of pages.
How we research travel information
Travel details change.
When opening rules, transport schedules, weather-related access, ticket procedures or legal/entry requirements materially affect a trip, we prefer current information from official authorities, attraction operators, public agencies and other primary sources.
Examples include the U.S. Forest Service for El Yunque, the National Park Service for San Juan National Historic Site, official ferry information and U.S. government guidance for entry/document questions.
We also prefer durable advice where exact figures are likely to change. A planning principle that remains useful is often more valuable than copying a timetable that may be stale by the time you travel.
See our Editorial Policy for more detail.
How the site is funded
One Week in Puerto Rico is intended to be an affiliate-supported travel site.
Some pages may contain links to booking, activity, accommodation, transport or other travel providers. If you complete a qualifying purchase after following an affiliate link, the site may receive a commission. This will not normally increase the price you pay.
Commercial relationships do not remove the need for useful editorial guidance. A product or tour should not be recommended solely because it can generate commission.
See the Affiliate Disclosure.
Our approach to tours and activities
Puerto Rico has strong bookable activity categories: rainforest experiences, snorkeling, boat trips, bioluminescent bays, food tours and adventure activities.
We try to separate two questions:
- Is the activity useful for the traveler?
- Does it need to be booked as a tour?
Old San Juan, for example, can be explored independently. El Yunque may be easier with a guided transfer for travelers without a car. A bio-bay experience naturally requires more organized logistics.

What the site is not
One Week in Puerto Rico is not an official tourism authority, government agency, airline, ferry operator, hotel, tour company, national park or national forest website.
Important schedules, access rules, weather alerts, prices and booking conditions should always be confirmed with the relevant provider when they matter to your trip.
For trip planning, start with the one-week itinerary or the Puerto Rico travel guide.
