Amazing experience with the BEST guide ! - Amazing experience in a really special place ! Our guide “Taina” was simply fantastic during the whole tour ! She really took care of us from pick up to drop off in our hotel ! If you want to enjoy El Yunque, going with a local and experimented guide like her is a must. She was super friendly and lovely with our kids. We couldn’t ask for more ! 5 *****.

Amazing - Amazing experience!!! Hike was beautiful and loved the different paths we had to take on the journey, we did a Saturday tour and if you love hiking I definitely recommend this! Our tour guide Stephanie was also one of the most amazing people I’ve met on the island, very knowledgeable, fun and dedicated to make this experience even more surreal! If you have the chance this is a MUST on your to do list in Puerto Rico!!

Highlight of our trip! The perfect adventure. - Best experience ever ! Was so much more exciting than what we’d thought signing up. The hike was so much fun, not too strenuous. Water slide and cliff jump was very cool.
Special shoutout to Stephanie and Richard ! They really made the tour with their welcoming, friendly attitude and interesting bits of knowledge about the local fauna. Would highly recommend x 100!

Jumping into 40 with a splash - Our guide Eliu was great and inspired us to jump into the water. He made my 40th memorable. We fully enjoyed El Yunque Rainforest & would come back.

Excellent guide and driver OMG! - Our amazing guide Taina was incredible! Knowledgeable, funny, and aware. When the heavy rain became too much, She emphasized her group's safety over everything else, which my wife and I greatly appreciated. She moved at a great pace and was patient when I lagged behind taking pictures. Will post later. Thank you again!
