Gorgeous trip into a Puerto Rican rainforest - The 1/2 day El Yunque Rainforest trip was well worth it - from seeing the incredibly beautiful panoramic views from the top of the tower in the mountains, experiencing the uniqueness of the rainforest up close including the waterfall, and finally to swimming in the refreshing river. Making it extra special was our guide, Isaac, who was full of knowledge and enthusiasm regarding the rainforest and surrouding area. A portion of the nature walk is uphill on a rugged path so Viator's information suggesting you should have a moderate physical fitness level is definitely true. I'd also recommend shoes with good traction. Finally, the communication from Viator and our guide Isaac was excellent before, during, and after the tour. Definitely recommended.
