Full description

Feel like a true explorer and challenge yourself to an off-the-beaten-path adventure in the heart of the El Yunque Rainforest. Begin with a 25-30 minute journey up a rock and dirt path, along with some river wading. Enjoy being surrounded by bamboo trees, rainforest flowers, and many other beautiful plants as you hike into the refreshing natural pools. First, a visit to a collecting pool that forms at the base of a waterfall. Swim in its crystal clear waters and admire the colors of its deep pools. Enjoy the cascades of the waterfall and take the opportunity to snap pictures. Continue into the forest as you climb to another set of pools (more advanced). Arrive at a river where you can swim, swing from a rope into the water, and enjoy natural water slides.

It was really a great adventure with a great guide! George really cares about his group and he is very professional, helpful and well experienced and also very friendly. I had a lot of fun, enjoyed the trip, the forest and the food after. Thank you so much.

George was fantastic! He was charismatic, funny, and put safety first. He educated the group about local history, the ecosystem, and sustainability. He also recommended local places to check out. The food at the little roadside restaurant (at the beginning of the trip) was probably the best we ate in PR. I will mention that this outfitter does seem to have a partnership with the final restaurant they drop you off at in Luquillo Beach (towards the end or the tour), which came highly recommended but was frankly disappointing. The tour, itself, was fantastic, catered to individuals of all ages and most abilities, and was the highlight of our trip to PR. Be sure to request George as your guide-definitely worth the $.

My friend and I booked this tour and had a fantastic time! Our guides picked us up from the hotel (very convenient) and kept us comfortable and safe during the entire trip. They provided us with everything we needed. George, Luis, and Mitchell were very friendly and funny. They kept us very safe and took great care of us. Bespoke Lifestyle Management is my first choice for any tours on future trips to Puerto Rico.
