Additional Information

This is an absolutely unforgettable experience. This day trip has it all: adventure, pristine tropical rivers, waterfalls, cave swimming, beautiful scenery, adrenaline, fun and even some archeology/history along the day.
We will swim through caves, go under cool waterfalls, and even cliff jump from cliffs ranging from 8 to 27 feet (optional of course.) The place is almost undiscovered, not like El Yunque where you can easily encounter hundreds of people in a single day. Mostly just locals here or people who come with us! The drive from the meeting point to the rainforest caves is about one hour. Along the way you will see the real Puerto Rico, quite removed from the tourist area. You will see a more rural way of life where the locals are connected with nature. The scenery along the drive and hike is absolutely incredible. Once the adventure begins, we will take you through the jungle. We grew up doing this and know the area like the back of our hands, so you are safe with us.

  • Not recommended for people with mobility issues
  • Ashtma
  • Have to be in ok condition

Fun family day - This was a great excursion. Airam took very good care of us. We were guided through the rainforest, under waterfalls and topped off the day with a rock jump from about 20 feet. Wear water shoes and be prepared to climb, swim and just have fun. Highly recommend for the whole family.

Family experience - Definitely an amazing experience. Hope it had more details online to be more mentally prepared but it was well worth it. Everyone was very friendly and generous. Will recommend everyone.

Beautiful jingle, River, and caves. Swimming through was an amazing experience. - We really enjoyed the tour. The pick up location in Dan Juan was easy to find and there was convenient parking nearby. Our tour guide, Sara, was very cordial and took the time to explain the local area including flora and fauna. The holes were moderate and the jungle, River, and caves were magical. A word of advice is you should be in reasonable physical condition to participate. There are some up and downhill walking and hiking on primitive trails that you will need to navigate. Also some light swimming (wear the life jacket. It makes the water much more enjoyable, especially upstream). I recommend swimming past the jump off rock to reach an unspoiled Jurassic-like jungle area. It’s worth the small effort.

Great experience ... don't be afraid to try - I truly enjoyed the whole experience. Edward was personable, informed and accommodating. He made sure everyone had fun and was comfortable. I got to push myself on this adventure. I'm so happy I had him as a tour guide. Even the ride to and from was entertaining. Bonus his daughter was such a gem. Don't miss this tour .

Amazing tour and exactly as advertised - Swimming through the caves was breathtaking as were the 8 foot and 30 foot jumps into the river. Would not have been possible without our local guide, Airam.

EDWIN IS THE BEST!!! - We had Edwin as a tour guide and he was AMAZING. Honestly if you do this ASK FOR EDWIN! The best park about this is that they only do small groups, so you aren’t stuck with 20-30 people all day. In my group we only had 6 people which was PERFECT. Edwin brought snacks and drinks with him so we didn’t have to bring anything. I WILL SAY that the terrain is challenging so if you can’t climb or not if you aren’t in shape then this probably isn’t for you.
