We had a blast!! Sally and Diego were fantastic guides. So knowledgeable and fun. You could tell they truly enjoy being out in nature and sharing the beauty of PR with visitors. The experience itself was so cool. Rappelling down an 80 foot waterfall is a thrill and the zip lines are super fun. Lunch at grandmas was the perfect yummy end.

This was an amazing adventure. The tour guides were friendly and amazingly helpful. I was the only lady in a group of 10 men and they took their time and assisted me when needed. You do need to be in some decent physical shape and I recommend water shoes that have grip. I also recommend gripping gloves for the waterfall repelling, it can be a little taxing on your hands. I have bilateral carpal tunnel but managed with a little pain.
The lunch prepared by 'Grandma' afterwards was delicious. So flavorful and a good serving size.
Dry fit clothing is HIGHLY recommended so that it can dry quickly. Also, if you wear glasses, I recommend bringing the glass string or something that can hold your glasses in the event they fall from your face.
You will not be carrying anything in your hand so don't purchase a lot at the store when you make the stop.

Diego, Sally and Sammy were amazing guides. I was nervous about if I could keep up. I think if you make it over that first upward hill, you’re good. It was also fun getting to know the other people in our group. Beautiful views and amazing food from grandma. Went with my teen and it was a wonderful experience.
Response from Host, May 2026
We're glad you made it up that first hill! Thank you so much for joining us and we would love to see you again!

This was a wonderful experience, repelling down the waterfall was awesome! The zip lines were great. All the workers were awesome, and they even took time with me and encouraged me very much, of course, the walk was hard to get up there on the cement. But once you got out of the sun, it was perfect. Would recommend this to everyone! Love abuela's food and flan. Thank you!

This was such a fun experience! Diego was super friendly and he educated our group about the plants and nature of the forest. He made sure to prioritize safety when it came to zip lining and repelling, I never once felt unsafe. The hike up was nice as well as they have rope lining the trail to assist you heading up. And after all the fun we had a delicious meal at the end with the best coconut flan! 10/10 would recommend!

We had such an amazing time on this adventure! From start to finish, everything was well organized and felt very safe. The ziplining was an absolute thrill with beautiful views, and the waterfall rappelling was something I’ll never forget it was exciting but still manageable thanks to the guides, diego and very funny

We had a great time with our guides in this whole day adventure including a lunch home cooked by abuela! Very fun adventure, doable for most, and exciting to go rappelling which we had never done before, but they made us feel super safe during!

We had to cancel our adventure due to a motorcycle accident. The team was incredibly gracious and processed our refund quickly with no hassle. Their kindness during a tough time was much appreciated. I’d book with them again without hesitation. Highly recommended!

A wonderful fun experience! My brother and I had a great time. Diego, Sally, and Sammy were friendly and knowledgeable. You could tell they knew what they were doing and enjoyed it. And lunch at Abuelita's was delicious! Would adventure with this company again. Very safe, well maintained, nd communicative.

We had a great time hiking, rappelling, and zip lining in El Yunque rainforest! Diego, Sally, and Sammy were incredibly helpful and patient. They made our adventure a great experience. Highly recommend for a fun, adventurous day!
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for joining our tour!! Just a quick note.. this tour takes place near the Carite Forest, not el Yunque rainforest. Hopefully we'll see you again in the future!! Thanks again!

This experience was pushed from the start. They were trying to see how fast they could get the excursion over with. All it would have taken was a few breaks and all would have been fine. When I went back to Grandma's house I was told this guy arrived to get experience over fast. We arrived back 2 hours ahead of schedule. If we had used one of those hours for breaks I could have completed the excursion. If you are not in great shape do not attempt this excursion, they don't work with you it's all fast ahead or nothing. Total waste of $195.00
Response from Host, Apr 2026
When we decide to stop someone and take them back to base camp (Grandma's house) it's because we truly believe that they are truly endangering themselves and by default the crew. We have been doing this tour for almost 20 years and have taken participants of all shapes and sizes. Obviously you have to be in some sort of good physical condition to participate. It is not for everyone. On this specific day we were at the pace of all our participants, which by the way were a mixed group in terms of age and physical fitness. As per our conversation on the trail when you decided to stop, we told you that we recommended that you return to base camp and you agreed (because you were truly tired and over your head). This review is very undeserved as we do try to work and accommodate everyone.

Loved this experience, guide was friendly, knowledgeable and fun!! It was a challenging hike to the waterfall and a challenging and exciting rappel down the waterfall. Grandmas food was very good! Overall, great expedience!!!

Angel_E, Mar 2026
This was an amazing experience! The hike up to the waterfall and the zip lines was a very advanced hike. Please beware, wear appropriate shoes, be prepared to hike through water, mud and up steep hills. A lot more challenging than I expected lol. However, I had a great time and would definitely do it again. 100% worth it if you love thrill, nature, and adventure!

We would love to have you again on the excursion! Thanks again for booking with us!!

A must do ALL IN ONE experience! Hiking, repelling off an amazing waterfall, zip lining, and wonderful food! Super fun. Expect to get a little dirty , wet, and it’s a part of the experience definitely a good time. The lunch at the end made by abuela was delicious as well as the incredible dessert. Hurry up and book!

This excursion is a must if you’re visiting Puerto Rico. It consisted of a group hike through the rainforest, waterfall, rappelling, zip lining, and a delicious lunch at the end.

Diego, Sally and Sammy were awesome tour guides! The waterfall reppelling was an experience we will always remember. The entire group had a blast. At the end of the day 'Grandma' even served us a homemade Puerto Rican lunch. Very professionally run.

Kylie_P, Mar 2026
The best experience I had in PR as a solo traveler. The guides were amazing and even went out of their way to make sure you get pictures & videos to remember the experience. I did an El Yunque tour the day before and it was nothing compared to this. The hike was incredible & so we’re the views. I can’t wait to bring my sister next time.
Response from Host, Mar 2026
We´ll be more than happy to have you and your sister back on the tour!! See you soon!!
Ethan_G, Mar 2026
Saely, Diego, and Javier were knowledgeable and capable guides. This group is a local family in Caguas who operates an amazing and exciting tour through their beautiful private land. Complete with a home cooked meal from abuela, this experience is worth your time and money! The hiking, rappelling, and zip lining were moderately challenging, but fine for a family to participate.

The best experience we had in Puerto Rico. We had a family of 6. The hike was more challenging that we expected, however totally worth it for the waterfall and Zipline. The lunch was delicious. The guides were so fantastic to work with.

This was an amazing experience and it felt like a real personal one as well. Travelling alone, the guides made every effort to make me feel included and ensure that I got great photos of the experience too. It had everything and more - hiking, scrambling, abseiling, zip wires and Grandmas lunch at the end of it - delicious home cooked food. Highly recommend

the hike is moderately rigorous, not crazy though. the tour guides were super friendly and helpful. the rappelling did put pressure on my back though and I'm paying the price for it now. Worth it though. Very fun and adventurous.

This zip line tour is the best experience we’ve had for our entire Puerto Rico trip! It has all the adventurous elements you could possibly ask for. Forget about all the other forest tour, seriously, this is the one. Go ahead and book it, you won’t be disappointed.

This was an amazing experience! It wasn’t touristy like other excursions - it was small and personal. As long as you are in shape, this is a BLAST! Started with climbing up on ground + up small waterfalls. Moved into rappelling down, going zip lining (that were all built by hiking materials up and put together by hand). And then we trekked the remaining portion down. Highly recommend if you enjoy adventure!!!

This was such a unique experience and so different than what we were seeing from other groups on Viator. Neither of us had rappelled before and the guides did an incredible job making sure we were comfortable and knew what to do. We would do this again in a heartbeat!

We have done this excursion twice now and it is an absolutely unforgettable and unique experience unlike any other. This time we had fantastic guides (shout out to Patricia, Sally, and Sammy) who helped us safely navigate the day while sharing their knowledge about the flora and fauna as well as Puerto Rican history and culture. Incredible people! And the surroundings are breathtaking capped off by repelling down through a stunning waterfall. Once in a lifetime experience! We will do this on every visit to Puerto Rico!
