First time to El Yunque

Published on Jul, 2024

We truly enjoyed this tour. Our guide Charles was very informative and super passionate which made the experience that much better.

The perfect tour guide mixed with a beautiful location

Published on Jun, 2024

First of all, our tour guide Charles was amazing. He made the trip perfect from beginning to end. We had a timely pick up from the hotel, and got dropped back off at the front door. The vehicle was clean and the entire ride there we discussed local history and he had so many fun facts. There wasn't a dull moment! The tour itself was just the right amount of walking, and the right amount of driving and sightseeing. Charles was extremely knowledgeable. The forest itself was beautiful and it was easily one of the best parts of my trip. I was there with my nephew, my mom, my brother, and my sons. We had people from the ages of 8 to 60-something, and it was easily navigated by all.

El Yunque with Charles

Published on May, 2024

Charles was an exceptional guide and extremely informative on the forest and all the species and flowers in the rain forest. Very cool this is the only tropical rain forest in the National Forest system. And has more species than any other National Forest. Met some new friends from Pittsburgh. Great touring mates.

wonderful experience you don't want to miss

The entire l trip was great, even though it was pouring at some point. the tour guide- Charles made the whole trip very entertaining and unforgetable experience

Great Half-Day Tour with Scenic Views and Nature Hike

Published on Apr, 2024

We chose this excursion for a variety of reasons - hotel / accommodation transportation, small group sizes, and positive reviews - and we were not disappointed. We were greeted warmly and promptly by Charles in a spacious and comfortable van. We were surprised (and delighted) to see that there were only two other lovely women joining us for our excursion, making our group total only five! We benefited from the small, intimate group and special attention from Charles. We also greatly enjoyed the stops - observation tower, moderate nature walk / hike with scenic overlook, and waterfall. It was just the right amount of walking, riding and sight seeing. It was worth the price for the wonderful experience!
