Great experience - This was a great trip. Julio was a wonderful guide. We had two young children with us. He was fantastic with them; very patient. I thoroughly enjoyed the rope jump and natural water slide. The hike was surprisingly not that bad. It is muddy and slippery but that’s to be expected. I highly recommend this trip.

Awesome Tour of El Yunque - Our family of 5 including 3 kids ages 9, 12, and 14 loved this tour. We went in the AM to beat the crowds ,and met the van at a pharmacy parking lot in Fajardo so we wouldn't have to drive into the mountains on the narrow, pot-hole rich roads, which we were glad of. The hiking was not too long or vigorous, and the rock water slides, rope swing, and cliff jumping were gorgeous and so much fun. This was the highlight of our kids trip to PR.

really fun experience in the rainforest - The store includes about 45 minutes of hiking at which we experience multiple natural rock waterslides, rope swings, cliff jumps, and small little pools of water to sit in. The rainforest was beautiful. Our tour guide Julio was very informative and very passionate about his job which was a bonus. The trail is muddy and some of it had difficult tree roots to climb over and rocks to get up, but our tour guide helped us with all of that. The only thing I did not like about the tour was how many other tours were at the same place there was literally hundreds of people in one small area. We would totally book it again though because it was just so much fun.

Highly Recommend! - Absolutely recommend. Not only was the meeting point easy to find but very accessible with Ubers as well. Julio was AMAZING! We were speechless after learning the history behind the plants and the rainforest. Julio brought his dog and it was the best thing ever, the dog was very well trained and basically knew his way around! The hiking part was intense but not too bad at all, in the end it is all worth it. The waterfalls were amazing, the slides, and the cliff jumping. An experience I will remember forever. Advice: bring a small backpack with a change of clothes, flip flops, and water for after. You will not be able to take your bag with you but you can leave it with julio. Wear shoes that you will not mind getting muddy because you will get them very dirty.

Worth every cent and all the stars. - This was the first time I ever paid for a tour and it was worth every penny. Our tour guide Julio was knowledgeable about the plants and wild life but also explained the importance the eco systems and even told us one of the many coqui legends. His enthusiasm was the best part for me. And he always made sure we were safe and had a good time. I highly recommend this tour and Julio’s work and expertise. WEPA!

Rock Slides and Waterfalls! - This trip was a ton of fun and not at all what we expected. Our tour guide was kind but a little hard to understand. Please note that you will not get to take your belongings with you on this hike and be prepared to get soaking wet and have your dry clothes ready to come back to. You will get muddy! I was very glad to have the helmets and life jackets. Definitely a must for the kids! Once we got a better sense of what we were doing we really had an amazing time on the hike and doing the rock slides and jumping off the rocks into the water. I wish we would have learned a little bit more about the rain forest itself. Note that this is a strenuous hike/bouldering excursions. My kids are 10/12 and they did fine! High recommend this trip for anyone visiting PR for the first time.
