Gave incredible information about El Yunque. Tour guide Issac was amazing and kept everyone having a fun time.
Simple , slow, not very adventurous.
An unforgettable experience at El Yunque! 🌿✨ Taking this tour of El Yunque was simply wonderful from start to finish. Right from the start, communication was seamless, clear, and super attentive, which puts you at ease even before the tour begins. A special shout-out to our guide—their warmth, kindness, and dedication made all the difference. You can truly tell when someone loves what they do; they didn't just guide us through incredible landscapes, but also made sure to pay attention to every detail so each of us could enjoy the experience to the fullest. On top of that, the group's vibe was an absolute delight. Sharing the day with such wonderful people truly made the experience complete and so special. We laughed, had a blast, and created beautiful memories together. If you're looking to explore El Yunque with top-notch service, genuine warmth, and a first-rate guide, look no further! 100% recommended. 🇵🇷❤️
Bring a rain poncho, there will be rain. Take advantage of the opportunities to swim. Thoroughly enjoyable! Great view from the tower.
Ingrid was amazing and so knowledgeable, she made sure we were safe at all times and it was truly awesome learning all the facts about the island and the forest itself
This was a fantastic experience! Our driver, Isaac, was a sweet young man with knowledge of his country's history. He was great at pointing out historical sites on our way to the rainforest. Great experience and great driver. I highly recommend this company and the driver, Isaac!
Great experience in the rainforest. We were able to take the trail that lead to an area with a water hole, drive by a waterfall (stopped to take pictures) and went to a viewing tower with panoramic views. I didn't want to go down a waterfall so this your was perfect. We were able to eat a quick lunch and grab souvenirs on the way back down. Our guide Ingrid was so informative about the area, Taino history and the native plants!
I enjoyed myself. It's worth booking the tour!
Tour was great! Issac picked us up from our hotel and gave us some history and interesting facts along the way to the rainforest. Our time at the rainforest was fun. The nearly mile round-trip hike was pretty easy and was nice to get out and walk for a little bit.
My driver and tour guide were amazing, great experience glad I went!
