An Awesome Experience! - Today we had the most amazing time with Alexis! He showed us the best time from the minute he picked us up to the minute he dropped us off! Being able to experience the island this way was really special and a lot of that came with Alexis. Not only we got to see the most beautiful beach, a great hike and yummy food but the pictures and videos we have that Alexis took and sent are PERFECT 🩷 Highly highly recommend to anyone wanting to see La isla 🇵🇷

Airam made PR the best trip ever!! - What an amazing day!! Airam made the entire experience so memorable. We travel extensively and tour guides are the backbone to every trip. He was above and beyond one of our favorite guides. The cliff jumps were amazing. My 10 and 13 yr old learned so much, we felt safe the entire tour. Gorgeous day, gorgeous island!

Great personalized outing! - This was a really fun experience! We had a really small group - just my spouse and I and one other couple. Our guide took us to a waterfall which we were able to climb over and through if we wanted. We then went to a nice beach and hiked around that area for a bit. That was followed up by lunch at a cute local restaurant.

A must-do adventure - This was an amazing experience! Our guide Kenyon was professional, helpful, experienced and knowledgeable! He geared our adventure to our ability and demonstrated how to maneuver down the rocky terrain. Kenyon pointed out interesting facts and allowed us time at each stop! The swim in the natural pool was exhilarating! This is a very rugged adventure please ensure that you are physically equipped. With that said, Kenyon carried supplies (few needed) such as water, snacks and any gear we needed carried. He took us to a fantastic beach that was not crowded and then, at our request, to a local eatery! Kenyon went above and beyond sharing stories, points of interest and fun facts. He is peraonalble and focused on your safety! He is also a very good driver!

We had a personalized... - We had a personalized adventure. John was very knowledgeable about the area and when the surf was very high at high tide, he knew of calmer waters to take us to. He adapted our hike to be more of our age and skill level. He provided water and snacks and knew of a reasonably priced food stand and restaurant to dine. He even suggested a dinner restaurant that was enjoyable. Highly recommend.

Highlight of our trip - John was our guide and he was phenomenal! He took us to a less touristy spot in the rainforest and we swam in a freshwater pool. It rained while we were there but it only added to the experience. He also took us to a local restaurant that had really good food and mojitos. He knows the area inside and out and told us about the history of Puerto Rico. Highly recommend. This was the highlight of our trip.

Better than Advertised! - This tour was exactly as advertised and then some! Jon was an amazing tour guide who took us to his favorite spots in El Yunque and along the beach. The nature was pristine, the beaches were spectacular, the food was divine, and Jon truly felt like family by the end of this wonderful day. We will 100% book with this tour company again!

Fun in the sun - Our tour guide Alexis was fun and conscientious of the rain forest, and in doing so he recommended that we cancel the actual rainforest portion, while it was a bummer he still took us to the beach and Piñones for some great empanadas, and beach time!! Another tour guide Sarah met us there and even brought us a delicious quesita!! Due to us missing half the tour we wrote the tour guide operator and they promptly issued us a half tour price refund. Would definitely recommend them to go do some fun stuff in Puerto Rico!!

Love at first sight - Brandon’s ability to interpret the atmosphere/history was not only admirable but also his passion for Puerto Rico made this experience very enriching. All the way there he was very attentive looking after my safety which made me feel very comfortable all the way we travelled. In the end, we went to eat in Loíza at a local kiosk to try some delicious alcapurrias! I definitely recommend that you participate in this adventure and the others that they offer if you want to leave the comfort zone and have a wonderful time!

Adventure away from tourist crowds - This was a very cool experience “off the beaten path” but I wish we had spent more time in the actual rainforest. We climbed down into a waterfall and took some pictures but outside of that the majority of the time was spent beach hopping and then exploring piñones.
