Amazing Adventure - Great day at EL Yunque ... It was my very first visit and it did not disappoint! After a nice hike the fun started with amazing natural waterslides, rock jumps and a rope swing. A great mix of adrenaline and natural beauty. Fantastic day with our guide Miseal ... He was great company and it felt like we were exploring with a friend.

Great experience - Our guides were great, friendly and informative. El Yunque was beautiful. The water slide and cliff jumping were exhilarating. Word of caution…. Hold your sunglasses in YOUR hands when you jump off the ledge. No one will care for your sunglasses more than you.

10/10- would do it again! So much zen - Jonathan was absolutely amazing! We had an incredible experience in the rainforest and he was such a nice, reassuring guide the entire way and was extremely professional and kept us safe. We didn’t think we’d do any of the cliff jumping or rope swinging but he made us feel so comfortable and motivated that we ended up doing all of the fun activities the forest had to offer. Would highly recommend this tour if you’re doing this excursion and definitely recommend April for incredible weather. They also do a great job of telling you exactly what to pack - I recommend soft comfortable shorts and not denim since you keep them on the entire time!

2026 trip to PR - Our tour in El Yunque National Forest was an enjoyable way to experience the rainforest with a bit of adventure mixed in. Our guide Misael was very nice, welcoming and made everyone feel safe and comfortable. He maintained a friendly, relaxed atmosphere throughout the tour. We were a small group of four in our 60's and all in good shape. Taking the private tour was well worth it due to the personalized attention that we received. The first part of the hike wasn’t too strenuous and is manageable for active adults. However, the second part of the hike — leading to the natural slide, cliff jump, and rope swing — is significantly steeper, muddier, and very slippery in spots. So after hiking the first section I chose to sit on the rocks watching folks cliff jump while my three companions continued hiking to the top. It was a 45 minute wait, but sitting in the shade with my feet in the water was extremely enjoyable. It’s important for others (especially older adults) to know that this section requires good balance and comfort navigating uneven terrain.

We paid for a private... - We paid for a private tour, but this was basically a semi-private shuttle to the same location as other tour groups and then a "private" group that walked the same trail as other guides and large tour groups. We expected the guide to point out and explain more points of interest during the hour-long ride and during the hike into the rainforest, and a more unique experience (possibly a less-traveled/quieter trail, different waterfall location(s), etc.) than all the other large tour groups. Our guide, who formerly worked for the tour company, also indicated that the tour company didn't have enough staff for our tour that day so he was called and asked to do "one last job". And he brought two other people with him.

Our tour guide was very... - Our tour guide was very sweet he was great. The place you start the hike was pretty gross, it looked like a junkyard. Not what we expected for where you'd start a tourist attraction. The hike was moderate but we would have expected to see more having heard from others about rainforest experiences in Jamaica, etc. We saw one small waterfall & swam there which was the highlight! The water was beautiful and it was entertaining watching people do the rope swing.
