Jason and Luis made it a great day! - Our family had a blast on this excursion. It was so nice to be picked up right from our hotel and the information provided in advance had us well prepared. Jason and Luis were our guides and they were phenomenal. Lots of jokes and laughter, they shared a lot of interesting information about the area we explored, it was fantastic. There were many groups out there while we were there, but the flow of the groups was well managed by the various guides that were in the area. One thing that quickly became apparent to us is that our guides Jason and Luis were leagues above the other guides and companies in the area. Their number one priority was the safety of the group. Our family noticed some of the other guides led their groups and had the participants help each other through the rock climbs/scrambles. Jason and Luis were integrated within the group and helped each person as much as they needed and were encouraging the entire way through. Our group was also one of the few that had safety helmets and everyone wore lifejackets. It wouldn't have taken much on this terrain and these obstacles for the helmets to have been the difference between a good day and a really bad day. Highly recommend this company and Jason and Luis in particular if you are considering this excursion.

Julian was an amazing... - Julian was an amazing tour guide. His knowledge of Puerto Rico and awesome personality made the day really great. We did a great hike, rock water slides, cliff jumps, and rope swings. I would definitely bring water shoes, or shoes you don’t care if they get wet and muddy. No bug spray needed, but some areas aren’t covered so sunscreen may be needed. If you are in awful shape, are old and frail, or have bad hips/knees/arms/ shoulders… this is probably not the trip for you. I have done two other tour companies and done this particular one twice now as well. Hands down bespoke with Julian, Adriana, Mitchel, and Elias is the way to go. 🙌🫶❤️

We were a group of 7... - We were a group of 7 friends that went to El Yunque with Julian and Luis. We had a blast. Julian was funny and charismatic. He also made sure we all felt safe and were able to complete the hike without getting hurt. I had a blast going down the water slide. I highly recommend the Julian and Luis duo.

Jason y Luis - Book this!! Jason y Luis were incredible!! They made sure, to the best of their ability, that no one lost anything while jumping 10 feet into the water, helped us place our feet while rock climbing, and made us all feel extremely comfortable doing all of the potentially nerve wrecking activities! These guides made this experience a 12/10!!

Best adventure of our PR vacation! - The rainforest is a magical place that we didn’t want to leave. Jason was a wonderful guide. We were late to head out, but he was super communicative and it allowed us to grab a quick coffee, so all was well. He took us to a drugstore on the way for last minute items, which everyone seemed to need - very helpful! While there, he gave us a complete and thorough explanation of what to expect. The ride was comfortable and scenic. On arrival, we put on life jackets and set off on a rugged hike, squeezing into muddy hip high spaces and climbing slippery terrain. **Tip: WEAR SHOES WITH GOOD GRIP AND TOE COVERAGE! Test them out ahead of time, they should not slide at all.** Jason was so in tune with nature and it showed with his many stories and anecdotes to inform and amuse us. He was patient and kind. We were lucky to have him.

Tropical paradise - It was truly a great overall experience. El Yunque did not disappoint. We got to go down the natural water slide and jump off the cliff. The hike was not as bad as expected. The crew was super professional and made the already amazing trip even better. Adriana's personality and knowledge of El Yunque was top notch. The other crew memeber was Luis and he was always making sure that we got the help we needed. Overall it was amazing. I would highly recommend using this company if they visit.

Had a better time than everyone else. We won :) - Great experience. Our tour guides were Adriana and Luis who were welcoming, experienced and inclusive. Their positive and tireless attitude were infectious. Safety was a priority and delivered with a sense of humor. It felt like our group was having a better time than the other groups

“Unfair Treatment and Not Worth the Price” - El Yunque is a beautiful and special place, and I was really looking forward to this experience. Unfortunately, the tour did not meet expectations, and it was not worth the price they charged. The tour was delayed, which started the day off poorly. The experience felt disorganized, and I was disappointed by how I was treated. The tour guide excluded me from key activities, such as holding the rope and jumping. When I asked if I could participate, my request was unfairly denied without a clear explanation. I felt discriminated against, and it wasn’t handled in a way that made me feel included or valued like the other guests. Additionally, I wasn’t given the opportunity to take pictures like the rest of the group, which further made me feel left out. While the rainforest itself is stunning, the tour lacked fairness and coordination, and overall, it didn’t match the price I paid for the experience.
