My son said this trip was fun and well worth the money. He enjoyed the swinging and sliding into the water.

We visit the Eastside of El Yunque Rainforest. Our adventure starts with a 30 minute hike (the path can be muddy) to the first mineral water, natural water pool. There you can enjoy the landscape, swim in the water and live in nature. Along the way you will learn of the bio diverse ecosystem of the rainforest, touch bamboo, unique flora, guava trees and 300 year old trees. Further up after a 15 minute hike, a little rocky there is another watering hole with natural waterfalls. NOTE : Saturday tour take a different route and require participants to be in good physical condition. This route is great for people in shape ready for a more steep and muddy adventure. If this is not for you, we encourage to book with us on any other day of the week. We are featured in Kayak Travel guide for San Juan.

Attended as a family with our 24/26 year old son’s. We had a great time. Our tour guide, Paul, was Amazing. He was professional, informative, and fun.
Hi , I don’t do social media. But you could copy and paste this for your review. Pick up from hotel was prompt and friendly. The trip guide was knowledgeable and informative and approachable. The walk, climbs and activities were all exhilarating, fun and the guide was very supportive and brilliant at showing us the best that suited our abilities. From natural waterfalls and slides to rope swings and the deep fresh water, it was such fun, so pleased I booked even though I was on my own, everyone was very friendly
Our guide Katherine was AMAZING!! Perfectly paced, great information and the best videos and pictures of our group. Loved her!!! And the waterfalls and jungle were pretty too :)
Our tour guide, Eliu was amazing! He was attentive, patient, and incredibly thoughtful with our group, which included people with varying comfort levels and physical abilities. He did an excellent job explaining what to expect before each activity, allowing everyone to make informed decisions about their level of participation without ever feeling pressured. The adventure included cliff jumping, navigating slippery rocks and steep climbs, and sliding down a beautiful natural waterslide into the water. It was so much fun! While the activities weren’t necessarily physically exhausting, some areas required extra caution, and he was exceptional at knowing exactly where to position himself to help us safely navigate the more challenging sections. What really set him apart was how much he cared about making the experience fun and memorable for everyone. He took amazing pictures and videos throughout the adventure and even carried our phones to keep them safe along the way, so we could truly enjoy the moment without worrying about our belongings. Highly recommend this tour if you’re looking to have some fun and adventure!
Taina was so amazing and sweet she guided us and explained everything perfectly had a really good experience
Paul is great and so fun! The tour is perfectly timed and organized. It’s an early morning but it’s sooo worth it! Commit to being wet (and potentially muddy) and just go with it!
Paul was such a great tour guide! on time with pick up and made it such an unforgettable experience. it was definitely my favorite part of my entire trip. definitely will be booking with him again in the future.
Taina & Eliu were great tour guides always asking if we were doing ok on the hike up and down. Wish there was more hiking though but everything was great.
Our tour guides Alex and Jul were very helpful, knowledgeable and so fun, literally will do a backflips for you off the cliffs and rope swing. They will make sure you have a great time which we did. This excursion was definitely the highlight of our trip. My tween daughter and her bestie had so much. And me and my bestie who were scared, made us feel safe by guiding us, instructing with clear directions with every step/ rock of the way . They also made sure we got our photos and videos for us by recording each of us going on the slides, swing and cliffs. Recommending this specific tour to all my family and friends.
I was a little discouraged about the time we selected because pick up was at least 2 hours earlier. But it is totally worth it. I would consider the hike moderate. You definitely need to be able to keep up. Out tour guide Eliu was amazing, he gave us amazing history and made it very educatiobal vs just leading the group. He was very entertaining and allowed us to stop and take things in. The earlier the better to avoid larger crowds.
Taina and Patricia were great tour guides even making sure to take and share pictures and share PR recs at the end of the trip. The hike was actually quite physical which I enjoyed and the water was so nice. DEFINITELY go in the earlier trip. Pick up in the morning was super convenient. Highly recommend!
Alex and team, were AMAZING! Picked us up at the designated time and were super friendly. On Saturday we did the tougher climb which was fun. They guided us on the do's and don'ts and shared the knowlwedge of the rain forest. The slide, rope swing, and diving into the water was refreshing. They do a great job of taking pictures and sharing them with you. Keep up the great experience of El Yunque! Will do this again with this same team, next time in Puerto Rico.
Do the early trip! Yes you have to be up at an ungodly hour BUT the rainforest in the morning is so worth it. Catherine and Patricia were amazing!! Funny, knowledgeable, patient, and just a joy to be around. Loved this experience.
Alex was a rockstar. He made the entire day so enjoyable and communicated everything we could possibly need. The hike is definitely a challenge but very doable if you’re in good shape. You. Will. Get. Wet. Your shoes will be soaked. Bring a small towel. Have the best time!
Have decent shoes for hiking and water. The hike was great, small group. Tour guide Paul was very knowledgeable guide and took the groups safety above all, but at the same time showed us a good time.
It was a really good experience connecting with nature. We had the best guide for our tour. I recommend going with Catherine La Tiana. She is full of energy and very knowledge of the area.
It was a great jungle hike. I am so glad my husband and I do SilverSneakers everyday so our legs are quite ready. There are lots of steep rock climb. Paul, our guide, was very nice about making sure he lends us an extra wait when crossing rocky rivers and climbing steep hills.
This trip was amazing! We had Taina and Patricia who were both so warm and welcoming. They were super knowledgeable and down to earth. We appreciated that they kept offering to take pictures and videos of us so we could enjoy later while still living in the moment. They took us to a local lunch spot after which was super good and authentic. Would recommend asking for them!
Book this excursion and ask for Alex. Wonderful experience, he was very knowledgeable and personable.
This experience was amazing. The 2 tour guides were great and made the experience amazing. Would highly recommend anyone to try this out with them.
so much fun! we jumped off the cliffs and got to do the rope swing multiple times! our guide Alex was the best!
If you can choose Alex Hands down, Amazin & informative. Caring and super helpful. Very patient. Love it so much
We were a small group , so it was more of a private. We came early , been first in the Forrest. The guys were amazing. Julian and Alex.
Taina and Patricia was very down To Earth & very informative! We enjoyed every second of the tour! Highly recommend!
Our experience was amazing. Eli made the hike so much fun. If we ever come back and want to do it again, we will definitely be booking with him!
It was a fun fill experience, got to see and feel el yunque forest and activities such as waterfall sliding , jumping off the rock and shirt hike. Paul our guide was great!!
Communication was good and our guides were knowledgeable and sweet.
Don’t book with Jules & Alex!!! It was horrible. Our driver, Alex, ran the van off the road on the return back because he was using his phone trying to airdrop photos. Jules laughed afterwards and even said “I told you guys this day would be a roller coaster of events.” We were terrified and he joked.
Alex and Julez were amazing guides. The whole experience was wonderful. Would definitely do it again.
Amazing, staff is very helpful and friendly, they are also protective when hiking and will make the experience unforgettable
The tour guides were the best I’ve ever had! They had great energy and were really funny! The trip very fun and a little challenging but totally worth it!
From the first communication, our guides Alex and Juelz were amazing! Pick up was easy, the day was enjoyable and they went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible! Thank you for making this once in a lifetime experience unforgettable!
Best experience ever, picked us up from our hotel, even lets us play a song on the way to el yunque. Paul was our tour guide he was cool af I would really recommend them!! 100/10🔥
was absolutely incredible! had a wonderful time, learned so much, felt safe, and 100% would recommend! paul was a great tour guide.
Beautiful experience, hiking through the one and only rainforest that the US has wild Would definitely recommend this to anybody.
Definitely worth the money and waking up super early while on vacation. My tour guide, Paul was excellent 👌. Pick up time was 6:20am, we were the first group there and it was amazing! We had the rainforest to ourselves for quite some time which made the experience more enjoyable. Paul made sure our group was safe as we climed the rocks, took photos and was informative about the plants and wildlife at the rainforest. A trip to El Yunke should definitely be a destination while in PR. 10/10
Our tour guides were informative, friendly, knowledgeable and made the whole experience so much fun. Our first time visiting El Yunque rainforest and it was stunning. Casa Venturas was a great choice for myself, my husband and my 10 yr old son.
From booking, to drop off, the experience was that.... AN EXPERIENCE! My daughter and I were entertained by our tour guide, learned about the different plant history, got a nice workout, then had so much fun at the waterfalls. I give it 100/100!
It was SUPER FUN and the guides were so kind and helpful 💗 Alex was one of the guides, I didn’t catch the other guides name, but he made the experience worth while! 🤗
Great fun - the Saturday tour is rigorous, but worth it! Come ready to get in a true “leg day” complete with climbing steep stairs, slight bouldering, navigating rocks, rivers, and tree stumps.
Perfect way to experience El Yunke waterfalls and rainforest. We took our two kids and the six year old has not stopped talking about her day. She wants to do this again! Our guide Eliu was very experienced, knowledgeable and fun!! He also purposefully got us there very early which was absolutely the right call. Would highly recommend!
Great experience! The hike up to the waterfall wasn’t to bad at all. It was so much fun. Our guide Eliu was the best! He made the experience so much fun!
Alex and Richard are so amazing. If you have the chance the book this tour specifically, do it. They’re knowledgeable and respectful of the land, and make the whole experience inviting.
Absolutely stunning views. Great experience and awesome tour. Guides explained everything about the local area and natural wildlife.
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.
