Fantastic Day - What an amazing day! Alex was such a fantastic guide - we learned alot about the island and the rainforest. My teenage girls and I loved the rain forest - especially the climbing of rocks up to the waterfall and the walk to the river where we swam. Luquilo beach was beautiful and we had a lovely lunch with some time to enjoy the beach. This company is so thoughtful and has the ability to accommodate people with mobility challenges (my husband is in a wheelchair). They made the whole experience seamless and wonderful. I highly recommend!

Excellent tour of Puerto Rico - This tour was an amazing experience from start to finish! First Stop: The observation tower offered breathtaking panoramic views of the lush rainforest—definitely a highlight for photo enthusiasts. Second Stop: We visited a stunning waterfall, perfect for snapping pictures and soaking in the serene atmosphere. Third Stop: A short hike led us to a refreshing swimming spot, where we cooled off and enjoyed the natural beauty of El Yunque. Final Stop: We ended the day at Luquillo Beach. We ate at kiosk #50, and the food was absolutely delicious—a fantastic way to wrap up the tour. Our tour guide was fantastic! They shared fascinating information about Puerto Rico's history, culture, and nature as we traveled between stops. Their insights added so much value to the experience. Highly recommend this combo tour for anyone looking to explore Puerto Rico's natural beauty and enjoy a mix of adventure and relaxation!

Enjoyable day trip - Very enjoyable day trip. Rupert was a great guide, patient with us and took time to provide us with a mix of history, cultural information and fun facts. Good communication around pick up times etc. We had plenty of time to swim in the river and hang out at the beach and did not feel rushed. Note that there is no hiking involved.

Great experience for all ages - Rafael was our tour guide, he picked me and my daughters up at the Fairmount hotel in San Juan. Bus was clean and air conditioned. He was very informative and very friendly, and gave us our itinerary so we all knew what exactly to expect during our trip. Our first stop was the Yokahu tower, overseeing the whole rainforest and mountain areas, which was about 90 something steps up, which wasn’t bad for my and my kids (I have an 11, and a 7 year old). Pictures don’t do justice to show how beautiful it was. then after that we went to see coco waterfalls which was also beautiful. Then, we went back to the bus and headed to the rainforest. During the ride he was giving us a run down on what to expect and information and history about the rainforest via intercom which was nice. When we arrived, we walked through the rainforest while Rafael was showing us species of plants and trees and more history about PR. Weather wise it was beautiful and not too hot. After about 10 minutes of walking, we arrive at the river which was my kids favorite out of the rainforest walk, water was clear and cool and we swam with the fishes! he let us enjoy the river for 30 minutes then our last stop was Luquillo beach, which was very beautiful, and they also had many places to eat and many shops to buy souvenirs. We spent two hours there, then got back on the bus to get taken back to the hotel. Overall fun, and informative, me and my kids loved it! Would definitely recommend and would do this excursion with Rafael again !

Rainforest and Beach - My wife and I really enjoyed the tour of the rainforest and beach. We especially enjoyed our tour guide, Rafael, as he was so attentive to the group and willing to take photos. This young man called us the morning of the trip to confirm meeting place and time and was so much fun and very knowledgeable about the history and the rainforest. Thank you Rafael for the driving and overall experience, Dave & Kaori from Chicago!!!!

Great visit to El Yunque! - We loved visiting El Yunque with Rafael! He was charming and knowledgeable and lots of fun. He called the day before to confirm pickup time and place and arrived promptly. El Yunque was beautiful and we loved going on this tour. It is not strenuous. My only complaint would be the Luquillo Beach stop. 2 hours is too long for this stop. The beach itself is pretty but many of the kiosks were either not open or vacant and there was a lot of trash in these vacant spots. Luquillo Beach kiosk owners needs to clean up their area. We did have a tasty lunch at Kiosk 50 El Fuego.

Great way to tour the El Yunque Forest and Luquillo Beach - Our tour guide Raphael was excellent, he was very welcoming and shared information about Puerto Rico in a relatable and witty way. The tour bus was comfortable, pickup and drop off was seamless. The sites visited all met expectations, our favorite being the nature hike to the river where the great weather permitted a dip in the cool refreshing water. The time at the beach was sufficient to explore the food and drink stalls and souvenir shops; we chose not to swim in the sea. All in all a great experience.
