Family Fun

Maxine and Yanu took great care of us. The natural water slide, rope swing and rock jump we're all lots of fun. The scenery was beautiful and the fresh fruit was very tasty.
Great excursion!

Great tour guides! Wonderful excursion into the rain forest! Would definitely recommend! A must when in PR!
Excellent adventure....
Todd_H, Mar 2023
Excellent adventure. Guides were knowledgeable and personable. Engaged with the group and made sure we were all safe but also had a great time... Did the hike to the swimming hole - slide, cliff jump and rope plus swimming to waterfall.
Fun outdoor experience!!
Natalie_W, Mar 2023
We had a great time! Paola and Bradley were very knowledgeable guides! It was definitely a little more rugged climbing experience than I expected but our guides made it enjoyable and much easier!
Great tour very...
Kathy_B, Mar 2023

Great fun
ADAILA_R, Mar 2023
We liked everything about this experience. The tour guides took pictures but we did not receive all the picture, that was the one thing that was disappointing, since they encourage you not to take your phone and they would take pictures.
Fun adventure

Bradley and Estabon were amazing, knowledgeable, and fun, they made the adventure very fun! It was a beautiful experience. Thank you, Julie
Awesomest!
Peter_S, Mar 2023
100 percent AWESOME! We really enjoyed the tour and the water was great. Knowledgeable and friendly guides made sure to answer our questions and make us comfortable.
Lots of Swimming/Jumping!
Sara_F, Mar 2023
What a great excursion! Our group of seven ranged in age from 8 to (an active) 75 and we all rated it the best part of our trip and gave it 10 stars! Our guides, Maxine and Natalia, a couple of bad-ass chicks, made the trip accessible to all. They were encouraging but without pressure! There was not a ton of hiking, but lots of climbing of rocks and jumping into the river! So refreshing!
Great tour but things I wish I had known
Nicole_M, Mar 2023
Great tour. Maxine & Natalia were EXCELLENT guides. Things that I wish I knew that are not clear on booking: 1. You meet at the location and drive your own car about 35 min away. For the price you would think transport included. 2. You bring nothing with you on the tour because you get completely submerged in water. Once you park you leave EVERYTHING in the car so no need to pack a backpack of stuff to bring with you. Your towel, dry clothes, even cell phone & water bottle stays in the car. 3. This is a private spot, although part of el yunque it is not a main entrance point which means that you will not have access to other areas of the rainforest after the tour is complete.
amazing rainforest experience
Khadijah_T, Feb 2023
Natalia and Esteban were amazing tour guides. They valued everyone's safety, and were very knowledgeable of the rain forest and the route. They were also shared great knowledge on the history of Puerto Rico, beyond the rain forest and shared great passion and love for the country. This was an excellent tour, I would recommend this to anyone. It is important to know that you will get muddy, engaging in some rock climbing, so being able to handle these thing physically is important.

Best time ever
Cassandra_L, Feb 2023
Paola & Esteban were the perfect guides! They were extremely knowledgeable, kind, and so much fun. We were hesitant to visit the forest but are so happy we did, it was the highlight of our trip. This company did a fantastic job of explaining the experience and making sure we wore the right gear, pay attention to what they suggest, it makes all the difference. I believe we were the safest group and it made it that much better.

Yuni and Bradley were great guides. The rainforest and waterfalls are awesome. Only negative is that we have not received promised pictures
Response from Host, Feb 2023
Thank you so much for joining us for a fun-filled day! We trust our team already took care of this for you, if not please reach out to us at 787-978-8080 and we will re-send the photo album link. We are very to hear your photo email was delayed, we sent the photo email the day after your tour but it does sometimes miss our guests or slips into their spam folder.
A must do if in area!
Sonja_C, Feb 2023
It was my birthday week and this was on my bucket list. Thank you guys for making it happen. Luis and Natalie were the BEST, so knowledgeable, kind, but mainly Patient with my fears. They are great with me and my non active friends. So caring and didn't make me feel like a burden! I love them for that! Great vibes can't wait to see the pictures. Only two things I don't like is the wait for the pictures and no video availability. But was overall a great experience!
Response from Host, Feb 2023
We are honored to know you spent your birthday with our team stepping out of your comfort zone and into a fun-filled day! See you next time! We really appreciate your time in writing this review, thanks again for joining us! Last but not least, happy birthday!
