1.00This was probably the worst I’ve ever taken, The tour guide was reckless. There was no hike through the rainforest. We merely cut through some people’s backyard, strewn with garbage, to the river. The river is beautiful and has natural slides down smooth rocks into the pools below, Walking on the slippery rocks was treacherous. A non-swimmer in our group was very afraid. The guide brought us to food stands, both before and after the tour. After the tour we were dropped at Luquillo Beach and its kiosks and given 2 hours to eat at the kiosks and enjoy the beach. We appreciated the transportation to the beach and then back to the hotel.
THANK YOU!
