Amazing, fun tour! Frankie es familia!! - I had a great time! Frankie is very knowledgeable and fun. He and Luis really valued safety and made sure everyone had a great time. I enjoyed this experience. I wish there were fewer people so maybe we could have had more than one turn at each activity but it was a blast.

El Yunque Tour: It’s a Blast! - The tour is a great experience for those that are looking for a day getaway into the rainforest. Guided in a small group of 12-13, you will learn about local fauna, see spectacular sights, and dive into the refreshing waterslides and pools to cool off. It is a blast! The tour guide, Jason, worked hard to get photos and videos for everyone to make the most out of the trip. We weaved and hiked through semi-difficult terrain (Please be sure you wear adequate shoes for this climb. Water shoes with non-slip bottoms or sneakers are your best bet) to reach beautiful cool pools of water, where we cliff Jumped (the depth of the pool is 15ft) and rope swang. Crowded with locals and tourists cheering you on, it’s definitely an experience! We were required to wear life jackets at all times, which is a big plus to those that are afraid of the depths. You will make several stops throughout the trip, one to a Walgreens before the tour, and a terrific local restaurant afterwards to enjoy some lunch and change. I would recommend buying a waterproof case, a water bottle, and some sunscreen. You are also going to want to bring a towel and a change of clothes, including extra shoe-wear. All in all, I definitely recommend this tour for those that are wanting to have some fun out in the El Yunque Rainforest. This was a stop I was glad to make on my 4 day trip.

The best!! - Jason was an excellent tour guide!! He loves his job and it shows!! He was super helpful and explained everything we should expect. Again, there were lots of different tours all going at the same time, so the “unique” experience was missing. But all 4 of my kids ranging from 11-18 LOVED it!!

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!!
