Amazing day and tour! - What an amazing experience. So much beauty all around. This is the second tour we do with Yamile and it was another wonderful day. We had 4 teenage boys in our crew and this was one of the highlights of our trip. Highly recommend Puerto Rico as a Local and this tour!

Yamile is truly a gem.... - Yamile is truly a gem. She is very knowledgeable about Puerto Rican history and very passionate about what she does. This is our second time visiting PR and since we had such an amazing time with Yamile during our last visit we decided to book her tour again. Don't pass this tour or any of her other tours up! Definitely worth it! You will not be disappointed

Puerto Rico as a local! - My husband and I had an amazing time on this tour. Our tour guide Yamile was so passionate about the island. She was a one woman show and dealt with the bookings, driving and tour sites. We got to experience the canyons which was my main reason for going. I was obsessed with learning about the Tainos and the petroglyphs. While on the trip she also made sure to capture pictures for us. We also got to see some hidden waterfalls and holy cow what a sight. There was no way we would have found that beautiful waterfall all on our own. Yamile knows her island and is able to show you everything so you can experience it just as a local. I would recommend her to anyone looking to have fun on this island.

Don't miss backcountry Puerto Rico adventure with Yemile! - Yemile was an outstanding guide -and I have been on many tours and am very picky. She has an incredible depth of knowledge of all aspects of Puerto Rico, is extremely skilful in sharing history and culture. She combines that with humor, efficiency organization. She has solid outdoors skills that keep her clients both safe and entertained. On top of that she knows how to facilitate connection between her guests and generate a rewarding group experience. Oh and she even takes personalized photos and videos that she provides afterwards. She is a one-woman business and a native of Puerto Rico and it was a pleasure to be on her tour.

Amazing One Day Excursion into Utuado with Yamille! - This tour is worthy of the 5 star reviews! It was an incredible day. It included some short hikes, swimming in the canyon and the amazing waterfall. Yamille is a fantastic guide and resource. We learned so much about the area and Puerto Rico from her. My two adult children couldn't stop talking about the experience and were grateful for the opportunity to participate in such a unique activity! 100% recommend this tour!

Unique area with an amazing guide! - Yamile is a fantastic tour guide and person-like a cousin now. She is a warm, funny, and full of knowledge…we truly enjoyed her! She is proud of her beautiful country and really enriched our visit. Small tour size is a plus. Utuado is like a small slot canyon in some areas with beautiful rocks. Petroglyphs were special to see. Lunch was authentic and yummy. Yamiles pictures and videos were a huge bonus! Gracias prima y espero verte pronto! We hope to bring the kids too!

Amazing Adventure! - Gorgeous scenery and super fun rocks to climb and rivers to traverse. The locations are remote- you cannot access them yourself. Yamile is a marvelous guide. We are an athletic family of four (teens ages 13 & 15) and loved this trip. Do heed Yamile’s warnings- lots of bouldering and slippery rocks. A highlight of our Puerto Rico adventure.

You Won't Regret Your Day at Utuado Canyon! - This adventure certainly did not disappoint! Yamile is a wonderful tour guide who knows the most beautiful off the beaten path areas of Puerto Rico. She is so good at what she does that this was the second tour we took with her. When we were planning this trip, we had so much fun a few years back on the first excursion with her that we planned this trip to Puerto Rico around Utuado Canyon and so happy we did. The scenery was gorgeous and the waterfall at the end was amazing and worth the effort! Yamile does all she can to ensure that you have a great, safe and fun day. Plus she takes the best pictures and lots of them. Although you will be tired at the end after a full day of strenuous adventure, this is an excursion you won't regret booking!
