Important Notice: Since September 2017, due to Hurricane Maria, tours in El Yunque Rainforest have been limited to select companies, and Puerto Rico Tour Desk is one of the few that are allowed to visit. The tour will be restricted to certain areas as recovery work continues.

$ 85 00

However, the beating from Hurricane Maria should not stop you from visiting the rainforest as this is your opportunity to experience the amazing rainforest environment after a natural disaster. You will have the opportunity to see the center and west part of El Yunque in just half a day. This tour also includes typical Puerto Rican food and the distinguishing Puerto Rican musical culture.

Our first stop will be in one of the most picturesque waterfalls in the rainforest (La Coca). After we will visit a natural pool area where you’ll have the chance to swim and feel rejuvenated in the clear and crystal waters. Later we will visit a north coast where we will have a beautiful view of the beach and where the river connects with the ocean. We will also visit the Maria de la Cruz cave where you’ll learn about our native history of the Tainos and get to know our African heritage through our typical Puerto Rican dance (La Bomba).

After a 45 minute drive from metro San Juan, we arrive at El Yunque National Rainforest, where our Rainforest Tour guide will stop at El Portal Visitor Center. Guests will enjoy a short movie and time for shopping at the souvenir store. Then we will take you to La Cola Waterfall, stop at Yokahu Tower and depend on the schedule, we will take you to Caimitillo Trail (about 1 1/2 hour walk). Along the way, our guide will be pointing out and explaining the endemic species of this unique, rare tropical rainforest.

    Rainforest half day was wonderful. We saw a waterfall, walked a train were I learned about the lushes plants and surrounded our tour group. And got to see the ocean while on the observation tower. I recommend this tour to all. A real gem in the Caribbean.
