Explore El Yunque off the beaten path

Do you want to experience the El Yunque Rain Forest off the beaten path and have the freedom of your own transport? If you love nature, this is a must-do!

Follow your guide in your own vehicle from meeting point to our hidden gem in the rainforest. Once arrived, let us take you on a 25 minute hike off the beaten path, to a hidden natural water park, to swing through the rain forest on ropes and shoot down a huge natural water slide into the clear pools of the river. If you like a rush, we will take you to 4 cliff jumps up to 32ft high. Besides all the fun and excitement, our tour also invites you to relax and simply enjoy the peace of nature at this very unique location.
