This activity is unique because it offers visitors the chance to explore a hidden gem in Puerto Rico that few tourists ever get to experience. The La Tinajas adventure takes you off the beaten path and into the heart of the rainforest, where you'll hike through challenging terrain, climb rocks, and rappel to reach the crystal-clear waters of the Rio La Tinajas.
Once you reach the river, you'll have the chance to cool off in the refreshing waters, dive into natural pools, explore the twists and turns of the river, and even try your hand at cliff jumping or swinging. The adventure offers an extra dose of adrenaline for those seeking a thrill, while our guides will be with you every step of the way to ensure your safety and share their knowledge of the ecosystem.
After the adventure, you'll get to enjoy a delicious and authentic Puerto Rican meal at a local restaurant, providing a cultural experience and a taste of grandma-style cooking.

What To Expect
El Yunque Hiking Area
Las Tinajas Falls, located on the edge of El Yunque National Forest, is a hidden gem that few visitors experience. Its crystal-clear waters, stunning beauty, and thrilling activities add extra adrenaline to your adventure. Reaching the river involves a moderate to challenging hike through the rainforest, with some sections requiring rock climbing and rappelling. Our guides will ensure your safety and share historical facts and information about the ecosystem. Once you reach the river, the real fun begins! Cool off in the refreshing waters of Rio La Tinajas, dive into natural pools, and explore the river's twists and turns. If you're feeling daring, try cliff jumping or swinging into the river from three different levels like a true adventurer. After the river, we'll stop by a local restaurant serving authentic Puerto Rican (grandma-style) food, reasonably priced and available for purchase.

5.00Everything was so good. Our tour guide Reinier is so kind and thoughtful with his professional knowledge about the rainforest.we have fruit in the forest, play with natural water slide, rope jump, and cliff jump. The tour is full of fun and surprise. I love this trip. And the place we went to eat is really local and delicious.

5.00We did a private tour to El Yunque National Forest and Luquillo with Salsa PR Tours, and it was truly beyond amazing. I went with my three kids, and we had an unforgettable day filled with waterfalls, nature, and pure joy. The experience felt incredibly safe and well organized, which meant everything to me as a parent. The kids had so much fun swimming in the waterfalls and exploring, and I felt completely comfortable the entire time. Our guide, Reí, was kind, patient, and super knowledgeable about Puerto Rican culture and the island’s history. He even shared fresh fruit with us, which was such a thoughtful touch and made the experience feel personal and authentic. This wasn’t just a tour — it felt like being shown around by a friend who truly loves Puerto Rico. If you’re traveling with kids and want a fun, safe, and meaningful adventure, I can’t recommend Salsa PR Tours enough. We’ll cherish these memories forever. 💛🌴
Well worth it, Jean was great

5.00Had a great trip with Jean. He was on time picking us up at the hotel and was a great guide. The hike, waterslide, cliff jumping and rope swing were all fun and expertly managed. Then it was topped off with fruit by the river and a delicious lunch.

1.00They cancelled twice less than 24 hours with no explanation and no prior communication. It was too late to rebook with another company and we missed going to the rainforest while on vacation. When I tried calling there was no answer or I would be disconnected.
Jean was amazing

5.00Our El Yunque Rainforest tour was an amazing experience from start to finish! The rainforest itself was stunning, but what really made the day special was our guide, Jean. He went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a great time — he was knowledgeable, funny, and full of great energy. Jean showed us some hidden spots we never would’ve found on our own and even surprised us with fresh mangos along the way (such a sweet touch!). The whole tour was way better than we expected, and we left with incredible memories. If you’re visiting Puerto Rico, definitely book this tour — and ask for Jean! 🌿🥭✨
No communication about time change, wasted time and money

2.00I arrived at the meeting point 5 minutes early. I waited and eventually called the company when the pickup time (7am - 7:15am) was over. I was told the time had changed to 11am due to road closure. I had not been informed about this at all. No call, no email, nothing. The automatic email sent at 5am still said 7am. I wasted around 40 dollars to get an Uber to the pick up point and to get one back after not being able to go. The person who answered the phone was nice and did try to get me transport for the 11am tour (only reason I’m giving 2 stars instead of 1), but none was available. I’m really disappointed because I have no time to fit this in tomorrow and I leave the day after. I did get a full refund, but that doesn’t make up for the time and money for Ubers that was lost.

5.00Reiner was friendly, informative and made certain all members of his group were accounted for and were able to move along at their own speed. He provided information on the ride to El Yunque, in the park as well as on the ride back. We had a delicious local meal near the beach on the way back with an varied menu to better serve everyone from kids to adults. I would recommend to anyone! There were no blood sucking flies of any kind.
