5.00The trip started with pickup at our hotel. We then went for a 40-50min hike, quite a way up the mountain but no advanced ability needed. After that we drove to the lookout tower and then a river where we could go in the water if we wanted to. It was overall fun and we learned a lot on the hike.
A Wonderful Tour Worth The Time and Money

5.00What a wonderful time! Isaac was a wonderful guide. The excursion was exactly as advertised. Isaac answered our questions but also wasn't afraid to look things up if asked a question he didn't know the answer to. The pace was great. The lunch stop was excellent with Isaac jumping in to help the people serve the food. We greatly enjoyed our time and would highly recommend this tour to anyone!!!

5.00Best excursion guide I've ever had in the Caribbean. Ingrid was beyond excellent in knowledge, care and service. She adapted wisely to a couple different traffic difficulties. The itinerary was fine, nothing exceptional. It included a lunch stop at a friend hello Puerto Rican food roadside grill. Cost cost was amazing bargain.

4.00Nice to see waterfall and view. Hike nice but not as educational as I had hoped. I thought would be more about plants. However our tour guide showed us plant and animal pictures ahead of time on ride. Water cold but many fish.
Half Day Van trip to El Yunque

5.00This five hour van trip was the perfect tour of El Yunque if are in Puerto Rico for a short visit. Ingrid our tour guide checked in with by text us prior to the tour to ensure our pickup spot in Condado, a short walk from our hotel. After a prompt pickup in a clean an efficient van, Ingrid provided a great introduction to the PR landscape and culture during the less than one hour ride to the National Forest. With five varied stops in the Forest, as described in Overview, the tour provided insight to the Rain Forest and the history of the property. It was great to climb the tower (only 96 easy steps) and swim in the river! Ingrid was a generous and intrepid tour guide and van driver. I highly recommend this tour.

5.00The guide was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about Puerto Rican history and the rainforest. The trip was just the right length of time - enough to hike a little in the rainforest, take a swim, and enjoy a fun lunch.
