About this experience
This tour is unique because we are the only tour company who visits this particular area of El Yunque. Making it a very authentic and a REAL off the beaten path experience. We DO NOT visit the slides or any other touristy sites of El Yunque. This tour is Raw, Real rugged and beautiful. Our small vehicles (no big passenger vans in our company) ensure personalized attention to everyone. El Yunque is a MUST for any traveler visiting the island. We believe nature must be appreciated wholly and you cannot do that in a crowd. In El Yunque we will hike, see waterfalls, and cliff jump in blue pools of pristine, pure water. After working up a sweat and an appetite we go to our second stop: Piñones. Piñones is iconic for 3 reasons: The beaches, the food and the people. We will visit a beach that is absolutely breathtaking. Afterwards we will visit a mom-&-pop food stand where we get delicious food from the locals. This experience is like hanging out with a local who will show you the best spots.
