El Yunke the adventure

James_W, Apr 2026

Comfortable ride with a knowledgeable guide to a beautiful park. However, to make it perfect little sandwiches and Coke and Diet Coke sodas would be nice.

Wonderful experience!

Luanne_H, May 2024

This tour was perfect for us. Our driver/ tour guide drove us through part of the Rainforest and we stopped at the observation tower and climbed to the top to see spectacular views. Then we went to a beautiful waterfall and took pics. Next we went to the visitor’s center. Then on to a hike in the rainforest and a visit to the river where we were allowed to swim, jump off ledges into the river and swing on a rope and jump into the river. Our guide was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We got to know some very nice people. It was a very good tour.

The dip in the river was very refreshing. The guide, Monica was very knowledgeable. Our driver, Javier, was very safe.

Raphael was a great tour guide. His passion and knowledge of Puerto Rico was expansive. He catered to our groups needs. I highly recommend using Rafi on your next trip.

Phenomenal

Takaia_M, Sep 2021

Our tour guide was absolutely phenomenal and added so much to the trip. My favorite part was the water activity, but I wish we thought to get water proof cases.
