    Unforgettable Rainforest Adventure Tour. Words cannot describe how awesome this adventure is! I've done many excursions across the country, and this one is by far one of my top favorites. The tour guides were beneficial and prioritized our safety at every step! Guest Testimonial Upon arrival, we were unsure of what to expect because the meeting place was rustic, to say the least—chickens, goats, and broken-down cars. However, seeing the waivers to sign and the lifejackets hanging, we decided to give it a go. This hike is intermediate and strenuous at times. It's muddy and very slippery, so proper footwear is a must. Avoid hiking boots. Water shoes with closed toes and a grippy rubber sole are best. You'll be wet all day, so no cotton. Opt for Dryfit and spandex instead. They provide helmets and life jackets. Our tour had 9 participants and 4 guides. We received our equipment, loaded into the back of a truck, and upon arrival at the trailhead, we began our hike. Words cannot describe how awesome this adventure is! The tour guides were so helpful and made sure safety was important at all times. They constantly ensured our safety while we hiked, helping us with climbing, footing, and guiding us over the very slippery rocks. They worked tirelessly all day and gave us a great hike. I had a few people in my group who couldn't swim, and they made them feel safe. Important Notice: Unfortunately, this tour is not for everyone. All participants must be in good physical and health condition. Highly recommended! [tourbookbutton] Tour Highlights Real Hiking Tour: Explore the rainforest.

This 85-foot (26 meters) tall waterfall cascades down a massive rock formation, making it a perfect backdrop for photos commemorating your time at El Yunque.
