About this experience
What makes us unique is the fact that we are the only tour guides that operate in this area of El Yunque. We only do small groups in small vehicles. No huge 14-28 passenger busses. This tour visits a hidden, remote and “secret” part of El Yunque. This tour DOES NOT go to the “slides." This isn’t a touristy spot and you cannot find these places on your own. We almost certainly will be the only people in the area. This day trip is guaranteed to be the highlight of your entire stay in the island. Come with us to explore an off-the-beaten path trail. This hike is to areas in El Yunque that are quite virgin, meaning that human interaction in the area is minimal. El Yunque is a unique ecosystem, quite different from any other areas. The area is also rich in history, which you will learn on the drive. The drive is breathtakingly beautiful and the rainforest even more so. This tour includes river crossings, blue pools of pristine water, cliff jumping and adventure for all. Don't miss out!

Itinerary and highlights
We will meet in Condado and proceed to drive into the Heart of the island to El Yunque Rainforest. After about one hour we will arrive at the most pristine, beautiful and enchanting forest you've ever seen. Surrounded by tropical forest, the Espiritu Santo River snakes its way through the valley. We will proceed to follow the river for about an hour. There are plenty of natural swimming pools along the way where we can stop. When we reach the end of our hike, you will find yourself immersed in nature, totally at peace with your surroundings. At the end we reach a waterfall that deposits into a very large pool. Good physical condition is required for this hike.
