About this experience
Skip the crowded main trail and hike deep into El Yunque with a local guide who takes you where most visitors never go — hidden waterfalls, natural pools, and smooth volcanic rock waterslides you won't find on any map.
Slide the natural waterslides, swim beneath falls, try the rope swing, or test yourself on optional cliff jumps — your guide keeps things safe and fun. Helmets and life jackets provided. Small groups only.
After the adventure, refuel with included snacks. Add San Juan transportation and stop at the famous Luquillo Beach Kioskos for local food, ocean views, and beach time.
Limited spots. Morning departures sell out first.
