This is really unique. Our guide, Sebastian, was cognizant of the needs of those in our group when we climbed rocks, went down the natural water slide, cliff jumped (at your height comfort level), and jumped off the rope swing. It was a really amazing experience. He even had a solution when my husband blew out a water shoe!! You would be remiss not to take this tour.

Diego was very nice and helpful. He’s considerate and taking good care of kids. We had a lot of fun in the rainforest. It’s hard to find such a beautiful place in EI Yunque if we drove by ourselves. We’re glad that we booked this tour.

Amazing experience!! Will do it again. Our guide, Francisco was extremely personable, and knowledgeable and shared alot of history and fun facts of El Yunque! We had a small group of 7 (2 families) and it was perfect! My niece who was afraid of heights had a little anxiety about the rope and platform jumps and he was kind, patient and guided her an alternative way. We really appreciated his kindness. I must say that some level of physical fitness is required, which of course they mention in the description, and yes it's true!! Highly recommend this excursion!!

Scam and Trash

Haoran_Z, Jul 2026
Absolutely TRASH!!!! The tour was cancelled and no one told us. We only found it out until we arrived to the meet up point and found no one was there. Called them A MILLION TIMES and FINALLY someone pick up the phone and said they cancelled. We asked for refund, and there’s no sorry, they just hang up the phone so quickly. TRASH TRASH TRASH!!! Definitely NOT RECOMMEND to anyone!

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Scam would imply we stole something from you but you were refunded after being notified of moving your tour slot for not our meeting minimum guest requirement. Unfortunately there's nothing we can do if a guest shows up regardless of cancellation, Best of wishes

It was a great outdoor experience. If you’re not an athletic person it definitely can push you but overall that is a part of the adventure. I’d def recommend to others.

The only El Yunque tour to consider

Jonathan_M, Jun 2026
We were looking for a tour to El Yunque that allowed us to drive ourselves as the meeting points on other tours were further away from our hotel than we would like or in the opposite direction. With the ability to drive ourselves, this saved us 30 minutes of added travel. The tour with Tristin was great. Having a small group of 8 people allowed us to get organized, hike, take pictures, and learn about the history. The experiences had were something we haven’t done before except a rope swing. We enjoyed the rock scramble, 2 natural water slides, an alligator crawl which was not expected, a 20’ cliff jump, and the rope swing. We appreciate the pictures and videos Tristin took as we would not have been able to take them ourselves. They provide great memories. Comfort limits were pushed and we are glad we decided to take this tour over other options. If you want a more personal experience, this is the tour to select.

Sebás and John were great! They were full of knowledge and super helpful navigating the hike through the rainforest! Also just cool guys who kept the vibe fun

Nice tour with kids

Best guides ever!!!

Sofia_L, May 2026
10/10 experience!! It was definitely a little bit challenging if you aren't usually active but very doable for the average person. Sebas and Adrian were the best guides. Super helpful and kind! If you get booked with them you will definitely have a great time!!

Sebastian tour guy

Derek_P, May 2026
First off, this tour was awesome! Our guide, Rene, was super friendly and knowledgeable. The tour wasn’t just a in and out experience. Rene showed us different types of trees, plants and just history in general. The free fruit we got was super sweet and a great ending to the tour as well. We came for a bach trip and he just seemed like a part of the group. If you’re thinking about booking here, ITS A MUST.

Pamela_T, Apr 2026
This was a lot of fun, but not a moderate tour. It was a challenging hike up the mountain, especially since it was wet and muddy. We also crossed a river several times and climbed up wet rocks. Our tour guide was excellent and helped every step of the way. He also shared information about the rainforest plants, climate, etc. I recommend this tour but hope they change the level of challenge.

Such a fun day!...

MaryKate_H, Apr 2026
Such a fun day! Transportation was convenient, Nelson was very fun and knowledgeable. Would recommend!

Small group, big fun! Great with kids.

Brian_L, Apr 2026
Our tour got rescheduled twice due to heavy rainfall and flash flooding conditions, and we're genuinely glad it did. The operator prioritized safety over getting every booking out the door, and that speaks well of them. The day we ultimately went on was perfect. We met our guide Diego at Frutera Flores in Luquillo. Pro tip: get there a little early and grab an acai bowl. They're excellent. Diego was an outstanding guide. He clearly loves the rainforest and shared fascinating facts about the flora along the way, pointing out things we never would have noticed on our own. We had our 7 and 10 year old and he was patient but firm with them, which we appreciated. The hike itself is not super easy. There's mud, wet terrain, and some challenging climbing, but it's very manageable with the right footwear. Closed-toe shoes with good grip are the move. Keens for the kids and Tevas with good traction worked great for us. The waterfall and natural rock slide were both incredible. The climbing to get there felt challenging but safe because Diego was right there with us. We also can't stress enough how much it mattered that we had a small group, just 8 people total across two families. Other groups we saw had 20 or more people. The difference was significant. We moved faster, could actually hear Diego when he was explaining things, and the overall experience felt personal rather than rushed. If you're debating between a large group tour and this one, choose this one. Ask for Diego.

Christina_M, Apr 2026
Nelson was absolutely the best guide funny, friendly, knowledgeable and patient. We had an experience that'll last a lifetime. Thank you Nelson so very much!! You are awesome!!

Great service!

Caroline_P, Apr 2026
Nelson was an excellent guide - we had a wonderful experience from pickup to dropoff. We enjoyed the hike and were well cared for while traversing rivers and muddy terrain. Definitely a fun spot to rope swing or jump in the water. Thank you for the great pictures and great memories!!

So much fun and beautiful rain forest

Helen_K, Mar 2026
The slides, swings and cliffs were amazing. I had so much fun! Francis is the best tour guide btw 🤭

Tremendous guide in a beautiful rain forest.

Andrea_A, Mar 2026
Be prepared to hike!! Beautiful and serene rain forest with waterfalls, steep hills, and a natural water slide. Our guide, Frances, was amazing. He knows the park like the back of his hand, and stopped to point out amazing flora and fauna. I was a bit older than some of the other folks in the group, but Frances made sure my travel buddy and I were well taken care of! I can’t recommend the tour enough. Frances is an amazing guide and human being and I highly recommend him!

Rainforest tour fun!

Nikhil_S, Mar 2026
The tour was excellent and our guides Francis and Justin were excellent, giving us lot of tips on trekking the rainforest, and details of history, nature and what to lookout for! They took us to the water slides, jumps from cliff into pools and helped us along a moderately difficult trek by boosting us and practically helping us along the way. Would definitely recommend them!

Tristan was fantastic, very knowledgeable and very patient. We had a great time, highly recommend!!!

Book with Sebas!

Patricia_C, Mar 2026
Sebas was a phenomenal tour guide. He made the experience very personal by learning our names and educated us about El Yunque. He always took the extra step to ensure our safety, capture the highlights of the tour, and made sure we all were having fun.

Worth every cent!

Alyssa_A, Feb 2026
Amazing experience & we loved our tour guide, Tristan! We faced a lot of fears during the hike and even made friends! Truly an unforgettable day, but the drive out there is quite rough so be prepared

Amazing adventure

Kathleen_C, Feb 2026
We had the most incredible time on this rainforest tour! From start to finish, it was the perfect mix of adventure and natural beauty. The water slides were so much fun and felt like something out of a movie, and the cliff jumping was such an exciting (but safe!) thrill. The rope jump into the water was definitely a highlight. Our guide, Tristan, was fantastic. He was knowledgeable, encouraging, and made sure everyone felt comfortable. And the fresh fruit at the end? Absolutely delicious and so refreshing after all the adventure! It was the perfect way to wrap up an unforgettable experience. If you're looking for a fun, adventurous day surrounded by stunning scenery, this tour is a must do!

Incredible time. Sebas...

Phillip_E, Feb 2026
Incredible time. Sebas made it so enjoyable for my family. He really went out of his way to make sure everyone was comfortable, safe and engaged. Highlight of our trip. Great memories for the kids. Thank you Sebas!

Sebas is the Best!

Billie_C, Feb 2026
Sebas was the very best guide! He was very knowledgeable. He shared lots of information about the rainforest and it's recent history. The fresh fruit was very delicious.
