Great experience

Published on Dec, 2024

Frank was a great guide who had a ton of knowledge about the Rainforest and was friendly and fun. The half day tour was perfect for me and I was able to see lots of amazing things!

Highly Recommend

Published on Nov, 2024

Frankie was an amazing guide. We learned so much. Loved every aspect. The waterfall and El Bano were highlights for us. Mil gracias

Great tour without a strenuous hike!

Published on Nov, 2024

This half day tour of the rain forest was excellent. Our guide, Frankie, was very knowledgeable and friendly. It was perfect for us because it did not involve hiking, but we were able to walk through the forest on a paved pathway. We are in our late 70's. I'd recommend it highly.

Very Informative Tour

Published on Aug, 2024

We had a great time on this tour. Our guide, Frankie, was very informative and attentive and engaging. My only suggestion is to take “snacks” off the listing as included because there were no snacks - only water.

A tour you have to experience

Published on Aug, 2024

Our tour guide Frankie was excellent!! He knew so much about the rainforest and Puerto Rico. My mom and I had a blast. I would recommend this tour for everyone. Frankie made the experience even more better.
