Javier did a fabulous job...

Emily_L, Apr 2026

Javier did a fabulous job on our tour. While the rainforest was very busy when we visited, Javier took us to places that were very calm so we didn’t feel overwhelmed by people. He knew the ins and outs of parking and where to take us. He was willing to take us to other spots too, although gave great advice about what was safe versus unsafe and what would likely be very crowded. As a guide he had access to some spots that tourists don’t have access to, so it felt like the rainforest was just ours when we were there. He also did great with the kids and the whole family. For reference, our kids are 9, 7, 5 and 2. We brought a soft sided backpack carrier for our youngest, and put life jackets in the car for the little two for swimming. Everyone had a wonderful time! The older kids even got to swing on a rope into the river, which will be a core memory I am sure :)

A Walk with Nature

The private Tour is worth the spend. Veronica catered to our preferences. She is knowledgable and friendly. She took photos and shared the secrets of the island.

Great, flexible tour for families and more!

Definitely recommend and would do it again Great guide and flexible experience for your group. We have a special needs teenager and Javier was understanding and supportive. He rolled with what our son could do and pushed him to a new experience. Of course, be ready for any weather (it’s a rain forest). But you’re in great hands with Javier who is supportive and knowledgeable!

Javier was knowledgeable...

Javier was knowledgeable and a great guide. We had an awesome trip to the El Yunque rain forest and learned about Puerto Rico!

Terrific tour!

This Rainforest tour was perfect in everyway!! Norma was incredibly knowledgable and a joy to be with. It was the right balance of hiking and touring to enjoy. We even had a wonderful lunch in the community at the foot of the Rainforest which was outstanding!

Wonderful Experience

Jack_M, Feb 2025

Javier was on time and asked our experience level and then took us on a wonderful trip through the rain forest.... Whey then changed gears and headed to cave section... The beauty of this was Javier talked about the history of the island, the flora of the rain forest and various other sites we passed on our trip.... Was well worth it and Javier has it together......

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Thank You, Jack. I had a wonderful day with and your wife. Private tours are amazing because we have the freedom to change plans as we go along. I was not expecting to visit the caves, but it worked out. Hope to see you soon. Javier

Javier was a great guide. I look forward to returning to Puerto Rico and joining another tour by Walk San Juan with Javier leading the way

Excellent tour

Our private tour for four with Ramon was awesome! He was very knowledgeable about all things Puerto Rico and able to answer all the questions from our very inquisitive group! We swam in a private area, saw a beautiful waterfall and the exquisite El Yunque Rainforest! A must do tour!!

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Thanks for joining us to visit El Yunque Rainforest. Glad you had a great time with Ramon. We are very selective when choosing our guides. Hope to see you next time.
