I could not make it at El Yunque but my daighter went she has a wonderful time here 💦🌴 The water was refreshing, the scenery was beautiful, and the whole experience was exciting and memorable for her It was a great adventure and something different from the usual sightseeing. If you enjoy nature, swimming, and a little adventure, I definitely recommend experiencing the El Yunque water slides! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Eliu was a great guide! The water activities can be slippery so make sure to have good shoes. Expect rain.
Best experience ever!! If you’re scared don’t be! I’m not sure how the other tours worked BUT our tour was amazing! We hiked and cloned with our water shoes. I saw many groups coming in from all directions. Our tour guide knew what he was doing! He helped everyone feel comfortable he helped us through the hard and even encouraged us to face our fears’ I would recommend 10000x over. I also forgot my water vest in the truck and EVERYONE worked together all day to help get it back before my flight the next day! From our tour guide ELIU to management to cleaning crew just everyone was amazing! Eliu was GREAT
Awesome experience! Our guide, Alex, was incredibly knowledgeable about the rainforest, its history, and the plants and wildlife throughout the area. The hike was very manageable and gave us plenty of opportunities to take in the views. The cliff jumping, water slide, and rope swing made the adventure a blast! We also got tons of great pictures and videos along the way. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a fun, adventurous, and unforgettable rainforest experience!
Experience was amazing, our tour guide Eliu was the best. His communication was great, picked us up on time and made everyone feel comfortable. He gave great recommendations and we really enjoyed.
This is a great activity for active people who like some adventure. We had a lot of fun and our guides Paul and Juelzz were awesome. We got there early and were able to enjoy the experience with a small group and no crowds. I highly recommend this!
Alex helped curate a perfect experience. An early pickup helped us to be the first group out and we experienced various natural water slides and rope jump opportunities. Along the way, he described native wildlife and plants, took various photos and videos, and allowed us to time to stop near local food vendors prior to the trip ending. 10/10 experience
Our tour guide Alex was awesome! He was cool, funny, and knowledgeable. If I could give him 10 stars I would. Thanks Alex for the awesome tour!
Staff was amazing. Julez made sure we had a great experience. He was knowledgable about the plant life in the surrounding area. He was helpful with his assistance on the hike and highly encouraged everyone in the group every step of the way. We had a group size of about 14 people. It was an additional $2 for parking. We got to rock slide into the water, rope swing and had the chance to cliff dive if we wanted too. Make sure you prepare for rain in the rain forest! It came quickly and heavily; however it did not last the entire time. Great experience!
Definitely recommend booking with a small group. 10/10 experience and getting there early was the best decision. The hike was no joke but is doable and totally worth it! Our guide was great!!
