Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: El Yunque National Forest 00745-9625 Puerto Rico
Our day will begin with a moderate to medium level hike, discussing local flora/fauna native to Puerto Rico, as well as key roles these played in our indigenous roots on the island. Hike is about 20 min into the rainforest (approx. 1 mile, or 4 laps around a track.) Upon arrival, we will set any belongings we have brought with us to the side and continue up another 10 min (.25 miles) to the natural water slide where we will be swimming. Life vests will be provided for those who need them. Once every guest goes down the water slide, we will return to where we left our belongings to enjoy some small but exciting jumps.
And finally - the cherry on top, the famous rope swing! All activities will be recorded and photos will be taken throughout your journey! Photos or it didn't happen!
For whoever has worked up an appetite, I can provide recommendations to a local restaurant with authentic comida criolla. Please note: lunch is not included in tour pricing. Total hiking duration: 75 min.

Tristan and Adrian were the sweetest tour guides ever! Tristan’s jokes and sarcasm made the hike very enjoyable and exciting. They picked us up right in front of our airbnb and were personable throughout the experience! They taught us so much about the forest and helped us throughout the entire hike! If we needed a hand, they would be there right away and would ensure that everyone was together! My group noticed that a lot of the other tour guides did not help out their tourists when it came to climbing through tall and difficult rocks to get to the waterslide. However, Tristan and Adrian would stop at every location that was difficult to pass by and would individually help each person get up tall rocks or through small passageways. They made the hike safe and fun! If I were to visit again, I wouldn’t do the hike with anyone else but Tristan and Adrian!

Paul was so friendly, and very honest about what to bring along and what to leave behind. Transportation was super helpful, as parking at the park is so challenging. Such a refreshing hike with awesome swimming areas. Would never have been able to do this safely without a guide.

My gf and I are in PR for a very few days and had booked a tour with a brother company of Tristan's.
After an emergency with our guide, we were partnered with Tristan the day off our trip and are so glad as I couldn't picture our adventuere any other way then with Tristan's positive energy leading us up the mountain to the waterslide, cliff jump and rope swing.
He was knowledgeable, funny and does an amazing job capturing the moments so we could focus on soaking in everything around us.
The stop on the way in the morning has great smoothies, empanadas and fresh fruit to purchase for snacking on the drive and if you stop near Liquillo beach at the roadside vendor oasis, there is every food you can imagine but get the pinchos ( meat skewers) with a fresh coconut to rehydrate after your adventures.
Thank you again Tristan for making the day amazing and we look forward to going on other adventures.

Our guide was Paul. He was very helpful and great conversation. He was very quick on his feet whenever anyone needed help during the hike or in the water. It’s not an easy hike for beginners or anytime with mobility issues, but if you are an active person you should be fine. There were definitely some less experienced people in our group and everyone did great. All in all great trip and highly recommend.

The entire trip was amazing. Timely pick up stopped on the way for a bathroom break. The rain forest was beautiful. Rope swing and rock jump into the water was nice. Had a good stop for lunch on the way back Gean and ray were great guides.

El YUNQUE The trip no one can't miss. Running away from the busy & stressful city of NY, we encounter paradise in P.R. in the forest. We’re grateful for our experience with the best tour guide, Tristan; he's kind and helpful and knows his job well. We had so much fun and coming back again. Luv P.R ❤️
