Isaac was a terrific guide! It was informative and fun. It is a great way to experience the rainforest for the first time. Definitely would do another tour with this company.

Very nice driver and guide, would ust them again!!
Juan. Operator is very irresponsible. Nobody picked us up and nobody called. . I initiated the call only to be asked when I paid which was 2 days before then told us the guide was confused and leftand he does not have a vehicle, all different reasons. And has the gall to ask for a review when we were never picked up. He should know two guests were missing!!!
Entertaining, but not what I paid for. Our guide was a character. He swore freely, raised his voice at the group more than once, and spent a surprising amount of the tour talking about weed and his ex-wife in Indiana. Several of his facts were just wrong (his Puerto Rican population stats for Chicago and NYC, for starters), and he showed up looking like he'd slept in his clothes. I'll admit I was entertained. But as a guided tour I paid money for, it wasn't what I was expecting or wanting. If you want a professional, informative rainforest experience, look elsewhere.
The entire tour was a wonderful experience. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating. I never felt rushed as we made a variety of stops.
Our tour guide Isaac was an enthusiastic wealth of information about the biodiversity of El Yunque...stopping along the trail to identify and talk about the natural vegetation and creatures that inhabit the Rainforest. Visiting early in the morning before the maddeningly bus loads was ideal and allowed us to do the trails at a leisurely pace.
My aunt and I had a great time. Our tour guide, Issac, was very knowledgeable! It is a great quick tour to the rainforest.
Great communication, on time, great driver Juan, great tour guy Pedro “el Mostro” and safe. Tour was a great experience, we learned a lot, got to swim in the river, saw the waterfall, the towel, and dropped us off at our location. 100% recommended.
10/10, perfect tour and guide
Amazing time and great value! Isaac was a wonderful guide, very knowledge and well spoken. He was able to describe in detail the plant and animal life as well as show us hidden gems. The nature walk to the river is moderate in activity level and recommend water shoes. The restaurant had a great local menu.
Very great experience would highly recommend to anyone you can go dressed comfortable swimwear if you want to get in the water very relaxing in the water and just beautiful nature of the forest
Beautiful views and waterfalls the hike was pretty amazing not hard at all a true wilderness experience
El Yunque National Forest is a must see when visiting/traveling to San Juan Puerto Rico 🇵🇷! The sheer beauty that it has to offer is indescribable. The tour guide does a great job in providing the history/habitat of the forest and all its richness! You don't want to miss out on this experience! It is just ONE of the places that make the island, Puerto Rico so special!
Traveled with my son. Isaac was incredible. Friendly, engaging and knowledgable. The driver, I think his name was Fernando, also very friendly. The small group was great. Everyone was very friendly. We had a great time and loved experiencing el Yunque in the rain. A lot of fun! Lunch was delicious.
Pedro was an amazing tour guide! We loved his sense of humor yet humbleness. Juan lol was awesome he gave us candy haha We had such a wonderful experience All of us and wanted to always remember it so we asked for a picture. This was the highlight of our trip.
Juan and Pedro were wonderful! We learned a ton about Puerto Rico. They were kind and funny. We were a small group and Juan made each step through El Yunque easy. Will definitely go again!
great tour with an experienced leader who gave deep insight into the forest and its impact on the island. loved the swimming and the mountain path. transportation was on time & excellent.
It is beautiful! Trail not stroller friendly but definitely can bring the kids. Juan was amazing! We stayed near by so driving to the location spot of pick up was so easy.
Juan picked us up at our hotel while Pablo was the tour guide. They were both very knowledgeable, courteous, and gracious. We never felt rushed. Great with children. Lunch was delicious. I enjoyed their sense of humor as well. We all were in awe of the beauty of the rainforest.
It was amazing. The tour guides Juan and Pedro were terrific, very knowledgeable and knew the history of Puerto Rico.
Our guide was so kind and helpful. It was an amazing tour. Very enjoyable! Picked us up from our hotel and brought us back. Highly recommend the tour with this G & K Adventure tours!
Juan and Pedro were very thoughtful, considerate, and informative for our family of 12 during our tour. The restaurant in the park at the end of our tour offered a nice variety of menu items and they tasted great.
Our guide Lewis was amazing! He was really engaging with the kids and made them leaf hats. He was also very knowledgeable about the rainforest and even know a lot of the backstory of the few residents of the rainforest. I would highly recommend this tour. We did this as a cruise excursion and they got us back to the port with enough time to explore Old Town on foot for a few hours.
Great communication, clear instructions for what to expect. Fun time, tour guide was great! Affordable, smooth drive. A nice dip in the water, great food.
We greatly enjoyed the history, nature facts, hands-on and even smells of the rainforest. We especially loved the dip in the river, the waterfall, the tower, our tour guide Pedro, comfortable transportation. Even the roadstop was good, though extremely basic, the pinchas and Italian ice were tasty.
First time visitng the Yunque. We loved it.Thank you Juan for the tour. The river was amazing. The food was great.
I’ve been on a few different tours like this where they take you to see something in nature and you go on a hike and you see a waterfall and this one was by far the worst one I’ve been on. I believe it is up to the tour guide and the company to take lead and make sure the experience is great for all. Letting one group of people make the entire tour run late. The entire time is just unacceptable. They should have a policy which this company did not. My expectation of what we would see based on the pictures was very different from real life I believe there could’ve been a much better description of what we were actually going to see and how long this would take this trip ended up taking over five hours and taking out much of our day when all we did was hike for maybe five minutes. Go on the water for 30 minutes. See a waterfall that was very less than satisfying that we could see from the road and grab a lunch. We could’ve definitely did this on our own or skipped it altogether safe to say I will not be recommending this or ever doing it again.
Guides were on time, professional, and polite. El Yunque is a hidden PR gem! I would highly recommend GSK!
This was hands down the most amazing and breathtaking excursion we have ever booked. The guides were very friendly and gave us so much history. They made sure we were all comfortable and answered all of our questions. They made u feel like you were hanging out with friends instead of a stuffy experience. Will definitely do again.
Our tour guide was rude and impatient. He complained about people staying back. And would yell “Come on” During lunch he threw away one of the tourists coffee. He said “ He did not want a dirty van” The lady was not going to leave the drink. He made the tour very uncomfortable. I think his name was Juan.
Amazing scenery with a very knowledgeable guide who made the trip very informative and enjoyable. Highly recommended
If youre looking for a tough trail, look elsewhere. If youre looking for an excellent 5 hour experience with a knowledgeable, funny, and personable guide... this is your tour
Guide was extremely knowledge and well versed in the history and facts of El Yunque. 10/10 would recommend! Can't wait to go back again!
It was super fun and accessible ! The experience was pleasant, the stops where great and I would definitely recommend!
Juan was AMAZING! He was fun, informative and great at taking pictures! Would definitely do again and recommend.
Our guide was wonderful. Very friendly and knowledgeable. It was a great day.
Host Pedro is awesone! Driver Juan was double awesome! Swimming was awesome and relaxing on a warm May day!!
The rainforest hike was absolutely incredible from start to finish. The scenery was breathtaking, with lush greenery, beautiful wildlife, and peaceful trails that made the entire experience unforgettable. What truly made the tour exceptional was our guides Juan and Pedro. Pedro was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about the rainforest, sharing fascinating facts and making sure everyone felt comfortable and engaged throughout the journey. Their enthusiasm and expertise made the experience even more enjoyable and memorable. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an amazing outdoor adventure!
Tour guide well versed on items relating to the tour. I learned a lot about the life of a rain forest.
The experience was wonderful. Our guide Ingrid was very knowledgeable and friendly and provided a wealth of information about the rain forest. She made the tour engaging and the opportunity to visit El Yunque and take in the natural beauty was awesome. Would recommend to anyone considering it.
Don't wear candles or shoes. Rocks are slippery but great to climb. The entire adventure was fascinating.
Our tour guide fell asleep the entire trip. He'd talk a little, fall asleep pop back up repeat the same phrase over and over. Even fell asleep at the rest stop sitting on the bench, slept all the way back to our hotel. The hike to the water in the rainforest was fine, but they take you to a "waterfall" to stop and it's a trickle of water down a boulder on the side of the road. Not even worth seeing. Sadly I wish we could get a refund. We could have done the hike ourselves to the rainforest.
Juan is a great guide. The tour started with a short hike on one of the trails that included a brief stop at a swimming area. The tour also included stops at an observation tower and a waterfall. The final stop was lunch. It was a nice excursion.
I loved this excursion. We were picked up right on time and had a nice small group. Juan was on point and showed us all the main attractions of the rainforest. He was awesome about taking pictures for us and showing us things along the way. At the end we stopped for lunch and it was amazing. We were back at our hotel by 12 so still had a whole day to go to the beach! It was the perfect way to see the rainforest!
No restaurant or clean facilities nearby. The tour guide took us down a trail to a swimming hole. Expected more.
The rain forest and scenery are beautiful. The driver was skilled and safe over some very narrow and twisty roads. The tour guide didn't seem very knowledgeable and fell asleep at times during the trip. None of our group chose to swim in a very clear watering hole. There is no place to change clothes and riding in wet bathing suit for 2 hours wouldn't have been comfortable. The van was nice and there were 8 nice people on the trip. The day was beautiful and the scenery worth the trip.
This was an amazing tour, especially if you don't want to commit an entire day to seeing the rain forest. Juan and Pedro were just fabulous. So accommodating and fun. They made sure everyone on the tour was comfortable and enjoyed themselves.
This was an excellent experience! We had a 2 year old which can be challenging. But this was the perfect experience with thanks to our amazing tour guide. Who even held our child’s hand and walked the trail with him. Which our son was so happy about. We even got to see plenty of fish and wildlife when we were swimming. We want to thank our tour guide for being patient and very helpful and knowledgeable about the rainforest forest. It was a wonderful experience for our young family.
It was such a good time ! It’s perfect if you want to visit but not spend too much time there. We did do a bit of walking so be prepared for that, but other than that, it was an amazing experience.
Juan was incredible...so fun and pointed out everything to us. We had a blast! Loved the tour and lunch afterwards...wished we had Juan for our whole week tour around Puerto Rico
