Lin-Manuel Miranda reprised his starring role as Alexander Hamilton for 24 performances from January 11-27, 2019 in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Vamonos was one of the few tour operators chosen by the Puerto Rico Tourism Company to provide travel-ticket packages. All of our tours were sold out. The experience of hosting the Hamilton team on our island and leading so many meaningful tours was one we will never forget.
