They call him Nate the Great for a reason, thank you friend! - This was our first excursion in PR and I gotta say... Nate, you spoiled us because we had a blast! We kept talking afterwards about how the rest of the experiences we had during our trip did not stack up to the great time you gave us! Nate knows what he's doing and guides with such ease, we felt great support and was able to just have fun during the whole experience at El Yunque. Glad we went in the morning because it did get crowded as the day went on, with other tour groups having like 20~40 people which proved to be quite dangerous as the hikes and slides became a bit more challenging. Not our group though! We had 6 adults and 3 kids total and Nate ensured everyone was careful & safe, while guiding us on exactly where and how to step/climb as we proceeded. His generosity extended to other tour groups as well since the bigger groups seemed to struggle with keeping their guests in line, so Nate helped out when he spotted other tour group guests struggling. He's just an awesome dude trying to ensure everyone is safe! We're already talking about coming back soon, so when that happens, I'll be sure to guide them your way ;) Sending love to you, Camilla & Eduardo!

Fun safe and thrills! - Our guides were very knowledgeable and so helpful. Some of the slides seemed steep but they got everyone through and made us all comfortable. It Was so crowded at first but then we stayed later than everyone else and had it to ourselves. Loved getting chance to do all the things!

Best El Yunque tour guide - The experience was incredible. Nate was very knowledgeable. Safety was a priority, helping everyone know where to step and jump. Everyone had a great time on the rope swing, slide and doing the big jump! We had an age range from 63 to 9 years old. Would highly recommend Nate and his tour!

We loved our hike and our... - We loved our hike and our guide Nate was excellent!!! We chose the caravan option starting in Fajardo, got instructions from Nate, life jackets, and entered the forest! Nate was great at explaining the plants and natural areas. He was also highly skilled and instructive on exactly how and where to walk, how to enter the water falls, and perfect guide for the experience. That water is cold! But such a fun hike!!!

Amazing Excursion With The Best Tour Guide Mr.Ivan - We had such an amazing experience, Ivan was the best tour guide, he broke down Puerto Rico’s history of el yunque national forest to the tee… It was about a 4hr excursion. But for the admission and atmosphere We highly recommend this experience. Definitely a must do when visiting Puerto Rico. (Make sure to wear good shoes with grip for rocks and hiking)

False Advertising - Our guide Sebas and he was AMAZING!! It was great, he was very informative, showed where to step and what to expect. The reason why I gave it a 3 stars an not a 5 stars was the false advertising. PARENTS, THIS IS NOT FOR KIDS UNDER 10! I had my 5 and 6 year old because the option we chose the lighter version. The option reads "Quick safety briefing and intro before entering the jungle. Duration: 20 minutes" and then "Begin a scenic 15-minute jungle hike through lush trails filled with tropical plants and wildlife. Reach a hidden natural river pool where you can swim, slide down natural rock formations, and — if you’re up for it — try an optional cliff jump. Relax by the waterfalls, take photos, and enjoy local snacks and water provided by your guide. Duration: 3.5 hours" We did not climb for a grand total of 35 minutes. We climbed up the mountain for 2 miles (2.5 hours) because Sebas told us that this would be a 2 miles climb at the beginning. I asked, is this ok for the kids, he said.. it'll be fine. Parents, I'm talking about steep, sharp, slippery rocks up and down the mountain and cliffs. The other adults and guides had to help bring my kids up and down because it was so hard for them. There were other similar aged kids and those parents struggled as well. The kids had vests but no helmets heaven forbid they would fall. Other tours had helmets except for us. Though I do not regret going to El Yunque, and I loved my guide, this company needs to do better at advertising the truth. I would NEVER have chosen this option for a family with small children.

Treacherous waterfall drop without proper safety equipment - This a very unprofessional tour with a guide who had no concern for safety and left my children traumatized. They had my 8 and 10 year olds wear life jackets that were way too big for them and didn't have the adults where life jackets at all. There was no preparation that our "water slide" would actually be dropping into a very strong waterwall that sucked you into a torrential whirlpool sucking us under water and making it difficult to come up for air and get out safely. Both the lifejackets came off above my kids heads and the adults were left with no protection at all. After my kids were hysterically crying that they were scared and didn't want to do the second water fall, the guide insisted they do so. We refused and the guide then said he was done being our guide since we didn't listen to instructions. It was the worst travel experience of my life.
