Once inside, you’ll spend around 2 hours fully immersed in the experience: -Swim in refreshing natural pools -Swing from a rope like Tarzan -Slide down a natural rock waterslide -Cool off under a small waterfall -Optional cliff jumps at different heights All activities are optional, you move at your own pace and comfort level.
Once the experience is over each member of the group will be taken back to their accommodation or meeting point.

My daughter and I had a blast! This was probably the best experience we had in Puerto Rico. Our guide, Michael, was amazing! He was funny, encouraging and passionate about his job; very knowledgeable about the rainforest. We highly recommend this tour!
I had a great experience. Our tour guide appeared very knowledgeable and was very nice and patient during the activity. (I forget his name) only thing I would recommend is disclosing at the beginning of safety demonstration that there will be a lot of walking, jumping and climbing on slippery rocks.
It was very good and they were very funny and helpful but be prepared to hike but in the ed it’s all worth it 🌿🌿
The tour was super fun I went with friends and the guides were super helpful and the experience all around was amazing all the nature we learned about and the cliffs and rope swing.
Michael and partner was great had a lot of fun
Eli was great. He was incredibly educated about the plants around the rainforest, kept things light and fun with his conversations, and helped guide the entire group on where to step/walk to ensure our safety! I was nervous about the hike, but it was easy. No reason to be stressed!!! This experience was a bargain for the price!! Wow! Highly recommend!!!
It was amazing, beat tour ever are guide was awesome and friendly, diffently worth it
My friend and I had the greatest experience on this tour! It was convienient, educational, exhilarating and unforgettable. Our guide, Myrllam was so knowledgable and friendly, answering all our questions with a smile. She made us feel so taken care of throughout the whole experience. The group was the perfect size, not too big or small, around 11 people. The pickup and dropoff from our hotel was seamless. We also felt very safe, outfitted with the proper equipment for protection. It was a great price for a priceless adventure. This was an experience we won't forget! Thank you Myrllam and Tour Hackers!
We had such a wonderful experience on our rainforest tour. The rainforest itself was absolutely beautiful, but what truly made the experience special was our tour guide. He was incredibly friendly, patient, and knowledgeable throughout the entire tour. He made sure everyone felt safe, especially while walking through the more challenging areas, and was always checking on the group to make sure everyone was comfortable. He also went above and beyond taking pictures for us. He knew all the best spots and took so many great photos, which gave us amazing memories to take home with us. You could really tell that he cared about making sure everyone had a great experience. He made the tour fun, relaxing, and memorable from beginning to end.
Myriiam was the most amazing tour guide! She was so thoughtful in every aspect possible. She made sure we left at a time that would get us there avoiding the large crowds, gave us tips and tricks to navigate the rainforest safely, and made sure we had an absolute blast as a team the whole time! Even though I went on the tour solo, I felt like I gained new friends during. I couldn't have asked for a better experience at the rainforest and felt bad for everyone else who didn't get to have such an awesome guide, lol ☺️
Absolutely — here’s a warm review that captures how special they made the experience: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This was our second time ending up with Nini and Eli for the half-day El Yunque tour, and we truly could not have been in better hands! From beginning to end, their energy was absolutely contagious. They are incredibly knowledgeable, positive, friendly, caring, and SO much fun to be around. You can tell that they genuinely love what they do and care about making sure everyone has an amazing experience. They made us feel comfortable, kept us laughing, taught us so much along the way, and made the entire adventure feel like we were exploring El Yunque with friends rather than just taking a tour. Some experiences are memorable because of where you go, but others are memorable because of the people you experience them with — Nini and Eli made this one both. ❤️🌿🇵🇷 We left with great pictures, lots of laughs, and memories we’ll be talking about for years. If you’re lucky enough to get Nini and Eli as your guides, you are in GREAT hands. We would choose them again in a heartbeat! Thank you both for making our El Yunque adventure so special! 🌴💦
Eli and Nini were amazing guides! They were friendly, knowledgeable, and made our trip through El Yunque so much fun. They kept everyone safe while making sure we had an unforgettable adventure. Their enthusiasm and care really made the experience special. I highly recommend booking a tour with them if you’re visiting El Yunque!
Arnel was an amazing guide. Great experience and will definitely be back!
Our experience was phenomenal. Transportation was easy and convenient. Our guide Myrllam was great. She was fun, helpful, and knowledgeable. She helped us be present and enjoy the beautiful nature around us as well. You will be completely wet so wear shoes, a shirt, and shorts that you don’t mind getting wet. There are many points where you will be climbing rocks, but overall it is not very difficult. Would definitely recommend this experience.
I was so nervous to do my an excursion without my friend group but from the very beginning Myrllam brought energy to this experience that allowed me to fill the perfect mix of excited, calm, and safe. She was so encouraging and it was clear she has a genuine passion for what she does. I would do an excursion again with this company and highly recommend, especially with Myrllam as the guide!
Eli was absolutely awesome! We had the best time and will most definitely be booking again. He made us feel so safe and had extensive knowledge of the forest. Bonus points for his taste in music on the car ride!!
We had a great time! Michael was an awesome guide and made the experience so much fun. The El Yunque rainforest slide and jump tour was beautiful and exciting. We definitely recommend it!
We had an amazing time on the El Yunque Rainforest waterslide tour! Our guide Micheal was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience so much fun while sharing interesting facts about the rainforest. The waterslides were a blast, and the scenery was beautiful. Highly recommend this tour!
Our experience was amazing, our guide Arnel made sure we were able to do it all and give us a lot of reassurance and help when needed. He made our trip very fun and safe and gave us the opportunity to do everything with confidence. We had an amazing time going down the slide, cliff jumping and swinging as well, we were a group of 6 and had a blast. Definitely recommend to anyone who’s interested and make sure to ask for Arnel as your guide for the besttt experience!!
Our guide Alex did an amazing job! He was prompt and maintained great communication before picking us up. During our adventure he maintained a pace that was excellent for everyone in our group, with varying levels of comfort. He kept us safe, providing step by step guidance. Our group of 5 had an amazing time! His pics and videos were perfect and will help us remember this trip forever! Don’t hesitant, book this adventure!!
This experience was absolutely amazing! From the tour route to the guide and the overall experience, everything exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Puerto Rico, it’s a must-do! Michael was incredibly knowledgeable, informative, and made the tour even more enjoyable with his passion and expertise. Adrian was also extremely helpful throughout the booking process, answering all my questions and making everything seamless and stress-free. The entire experience was well organized, fun, and unforgettable. Thank you both for making it such a memorable adventure. I would definitely do it again and recommend it to anyone looking for an incredible experience in Puerto Rico!
We had an amazing experience on the El Yunque Rainforest Tour with waterslides, cliff jumping, and the rope swing! Amel was an excellent guide. He very knowledgeable, informative, and safety-conscious throughout the entire trip. He took the time to explain the history and ecology of the rainforest while making sure everyone felt comfortable and prepared for each activity. The natural waterslide, cliff jump, and rope swing were all incredible experiences. I’ll never forget the rush of sliding down the smooth rock into the cool, clear pool below. Standing at the edge of the cliff jump, heart pounding, and then taking the leap into the refreshing water was unforgettable. Amel’s careful guidance helped make the adventure both fun and safe. He was patient, professional, and made sure everyone in the group had a great time. I highly recommend this tour and especially Amel as a guide.
Arnel was great. He’s super cute and super hospitable. I loved this tour!
Arnel was an outstanding host!
We had a great time! Arnel was our guide and he did a fantastic job. He took great photos and videos and sent them to us right away. We were one of the first groups on the trail and would definitely recommend getting up early to beat the crowds!
Arnel was amazing and very patient with myself and my family member who were on the slower side. He was very knowledgeable about the island and the rainforest.
This was an awesome experience we had so much fun. The tour guide was amazing. Can say enough about how great of a time it was having a great tour guide makes you experience so much better.
Michael is an awesome and energetic guide and chauffeur. His knowledge of the rain forest made the adventure even better than advertised. I appreciated his fun-loving approach, yet he takes safety seriously. This is NOT a tour to miss! Awesome!!
Amazing experience. Michael was so fun and knowledgeable! It’s been our favorite excursion so far. Definitely don’t recommend taking elderly family or people with difficulty climbing rocks etc.
Adrian was the best tour guide ever. I’ve traveled the world and he’s by far the best. Knowledgeable on every aspect of the forest.
I have nothing but good things to say about Myrllam. She was inclusive, engaging, well versed about PR, wildly interesting, and a GREAT person. Came solo, ended up being 3 different groups in total, and Myrllam instantly had us connecting the dots between us. Perfect balance of history and the fun stuff. If you have the option, book with her.
This was a fun and great experience! Our guide Arnel was patient, took time to make sure everyone was ok along the hike and communicated all details/updates for the tour. Being a smaller group was nice. We got a lot of great photos and videos. Definitely an experience worth doing and El Yunque is beautiful.
Arnel was a GREAT guide. He gave a lot of good information about the rainforest and the history of it. He also made sure everyone was safe and stepped in areas that people were less likely to fall. He took a lot of great videos and photos and made the experience as a whole worth doing again.
Myrllam provided exceptional guidance and hospitality. Her profound knowledge of the local ecosystem was clearly demonstrated, and she dedicated considerable effort to elucidating the complexities and aesthetic appeal of the rainforest. Moreover, she exhibited remarkable benevolence, ensuring the comfort and safety of all participants while cultivating an enjoyable experience. She possesses a distinctive ability to instill a sense of security and confidence in individuals. We highly recommend this experience without hesitation. This experience will undoubtedly be a lifelong memory. We extend our gratitude to Myrllam.
I would not even leave a 1 star. We never got picked up for this tour and we are still waiting for a refund. I would be nice if we could get our money back.
We had a great time with Adrian!
Had an amazing time with Adrian. Very fun and cares about your safety. Amazing 10/10 experience
This excursion was super fun and adventurous! Our guide Arnel was super fun and knowledgeable! 10/10 experience. Being picked up from our Airbnb was also very helpful.
We had a wonderful tour of El Yunque! It was on of the highlights of our Puerto Rico trip. Michael was a phenomenal tour guide! Very knowledgeable of the rainforest flora/ fauna and kept us laughing and safe the whole way. There were multiple opportunities to swim, slide, and jump! You will get head to toe wet, so bringing grippy shoes and a change of clothes is a must. We had a blast! 10/10 would recommend this tour.
We had great time on our tour through El Yunque. Arnel was an amazing guide. He was very friendly and engaging from the beginning. We would definitely go again!
Arnel was an awesome guide and we had so much fun. Remember when I tell you that the big rocks will betray you!! lol !
Micheal is AMAZING we had a blast with him !! Very informative and good sense of humor to help add some entertainment . Micheal will have your group wake up at the Ass crack of dawn so that you can be the first group there and get to have a lil more fun then all the other groups before the crowds start. It was very personalized and Intimiate in a group of 10 of us. Started as strangers but by the end of the day we felt like family . Cracking jokes and enjoying our time . BOOK WIT THEM. Very nice way to start one of your days
It was incredible, I recommend it 100%, a super complete tour!! I went with my friend and we had a great time, the guide explained everything to us and guided us at all times super well!
An excellent experience; the guide Arniel was very good, his explanations were patient, and he made us feel comfortable and enjoy the experience to the fullest.
