Highlights
  • San Juan - To begin our amazing adventure our guide will pick you up at your preferred hotel, resort, residence or airbnb in San Juan, Isla Verde and Condado (Although hotels in Rio Grande or Fajardo may not qualify, we can arrange a convenient meeting point near your accommodation for your ease and comfort). The schedule will be from 7:00 am to 12:00 pm or from 12:00 pm to 5:00 pm. Both schedules have been strategically chosen to beat the crowds created by the large groups of other companies to make it more comfortable and safer for you.
  • El Yunque Hiking Area - Upon arrival, our certified tour guide will lead you through this amazing secret spot of “El Yunque”. In this area you will explore through the mud trails and lush green of the rainforest. The hike will take approximately 1.5 miles in total and will take approximately twenty minutes to reach the first bathing area and another fifteen minutes hiking on rocks to get to the water slide. We’ll spend around 2 hours inside the rainforest where we’ll be swimming, swinging from the rope like Tarzan, sliding down a natural waterslide, cooling off under the waterfall and jumping from different cliffs.
  • San Juan - Once the experience is over each member of the group will be taken back to their accommodation or meeting point.

Hike and water fun - not for the timid - What a great experience. Bryan started nice and early so we beat the crowd. He also took time to explain the history of the rain forest as well as plants / trees along our hike. The water was refreshing and the slide was a lot of fun. Highly recommend!

Great experience with Eli - Great trip! We were looking for something that wouldn’t take up an entire day and this was perfect. Eli picked us up and we met up with another group of 3 with another tour guide Nina who was also great. We don’t have to wait any long lines and everything went smoothly. Highly recommend this tour! Thank you Eli!

El yunque - Let me begin by saying that our tour was amazing ! The view was beautiful with breath taking views and the dip in the fresh water was refreshing . Our tour guide Bryan aka Chuky was the best tour guide ever . He was sooo attentive with us and gave us such an amazing experience. He took our pictures from his phone without us having to worry about taking our phones down. He gave us an experience that was informative and imaginative. I would highly recommend this experience if you’re an adventurous person . So many amazing photo opportunities with thrilling jumps .

MUST DO! - This was an amazing experience. We met Eli on the beach & he told us all about the tour, so we decided to give it a try with him! We completed the online signup through the QR code & booked for the next day. Eli took us to ‘El Yunque’ where we met his tour partner, Nini & her group which was a mom and 2 daughters. We all had great time. It was a nice small group setting! We hiked the mountain, did the natural slide, jumped off the cliff and did the rope swing! There were several height variations for cliff jump! We did the 20 foot!!! Eli and Nini were excellent tour guides. Both are extremely knowledgeable, friendly and were very supportive. They also made us all feel very safe! Recommend them as your tour guides & I am sure they will not disappoint! Also, Eli takes the best photos. It’s nice to have someone capture your moments and not have to worry about bringing your phone!

Amazing time in Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 - We had an incredible experience today with our guide Chucky on our rainforest tour. He was absolutely amazing! Chucky made sure we were always safe and went above and beyond by volunteering to take photos throughout the entire trip. My family had a great time, and his knowledge and enthusiasm truly enhanced our adventure. We highly recommend Chucky to anyone looking for an unforgettable rainforest experience!
