Hands down, the best ever, most unforgettable experience - Every positive review you read about this experience is TRUE. We went on the full adventure tour that has a maximum of 12 participants. We went on Thanksgiving day and were the only family, so we had 4 of us to 2 guides, the SPECTACULAR (individually and as a team) Ashley and Luis. Ricky Lopez set us up with them, and I did the arranging with him. The great thing about this group is their low-key, locally-embedded, knowledge-based and safety-oriented approach. Both Ashley and Luis know the rain forest inside and out. Both were very vigilant as we went about climbing cliff sides and traversing cables with 200-300 foot drops. As a family we are ages 65, 58, 18, and 16, and we ALL had a tremendous time and felt safe because their instructions were so thorough and patient and they watched us carefully throughout as we climbed, swam, etc. Our two older folks opted out of one activity, so there is no requirement that you have to complete everything. Once, I panicked in the middle of a cable walk way over the waterfall and so shimmied back to the starting point and Ashley then joined me and came with me to the other side, making me feel way more secure and I actually got to enjoy the scenery as I crossed. I could go on and on. This is the real deal, no fluff. And very reasonably priced for what you get. Oh, and Luis took pictures of us doing all these crazy things (climbing cliffs, rappelling, etc) and he just airdropped them to my phone before we even drove away. No charge. Most places would be asking $300 for those photos. But now, thanks to these guys, we have incredible photos and videos of each of us doing amazingly courageous things that we could never try on our own.

Great time and not to be missed! - Amazing views and experience. Highly recommend! Luismi and Geraldo were great guides making us feel safe while giving an awesome secluded adventure through the mountains, trails and waterfalls with cliff jumps and natural water slides. They graciously shared their knowledge of the natural flora and fauna. We felt like we had all of el Yunque to ourselves!

Great experience with Montana Explora! - Really great experience guided by Edgar and Gerardo. We felt really safe with them guiding us thru rock-climbing, cliff jumping and repelling. Afterwards we headed back to Ricky's place for pork, tostones and drinks. All-around great experience and very hospitable crew. We'd book them again!

Best Day Ever! - This tour was amazing. When my kids got into the car to leave (boys 15, 11, and 10), the first thing they said was “Nothing is going to top this!” We had the whole tour (five of us) to ourselves. They seem to prefer small groups and that is why I booked with them. We did not run into any crowds or even saw anyone else while we were on our 5 hour excursion. Our two guides, were friendly and informative but also so helpful with us. The boys LOVED the climbing, cliff jumping, swimming and slides. I loved watching all the fun happen in a BEAUTIFUL location with a breathtaking view on top of the waterfalls. You should be in relatively good physical shape for this trip, and bring good climbing shoes for wet surfaces. After the trek we were welcomed back to camp with a wonderful meal that I dare say was the best meal we’ve had on the island. If you have the opportunity or are on the fence, this is a must do!!!

A memorable and beautiful adventure - This was an excellent way to spend the day in the Yunque wilderness. The guides were very patient and knowledgeable. The activities were varied and our group of multiple ages had a great time. Make sure to bring shoes that you can hike in and that you don't mind getting wet. I was glad that I brought water shoes with me. The meal at the end of the adventure was delicious too! A great day and we will definitely be coming back the next time we visit San Juan.

The bees knees ! - Absolutely incredible! This adventure trip surpassed all expectations. From adrenaline-pumping rock jumps to thrilling ziplining and rappelling, every moment pushed me beyond my comfort zone. The stunning natural surroundings and meticulous attention to detail made the experience both safe and exhilarating. Truly an outstanding and exciting adventure! One tip tho, make sure you contact them before the day to get the GPS coordinates of the meeting point, as it doesn't show up on Google Maps or uber without a pin.
