    Best experience of our life. The slide on the waterfalls was exhilarating. The rainforest is beyond beautiful. Our tour guide John was excellent.

    Exciting rainforest adventure
    Samantha_R, Apr 2024
    Jean was an amazing guide! He was so knowledgeable of the rainforest and waterfalls. We felt very safe! And he takes great pictures 😀
    Book now!

    This excursion was the best part of our trip to PR! If you want a private small group experience book with Jean! He was the best. We arrived early, it was not busy, we didn't have to wait for the waterfall slide, cliff jump or rope swing. However, when we were heading back the other groups just getting there were big and had a wait to do the above said activities. The local fruit snack was just what we needed after the hike up. The hike back, we were able to use the water hose from the private home (that only selected guides are allowed to use) to rinse the mud off our bodies and shoes. The Fruiteria lunch spot we stopped at on the way back was so yummy, too. It's a must visit spot. Again, pay just a little bit more for a MUCH better experience. Another plus, no mosquitos!!!
    Will do this again!!!

    What a Blast!
    Marilyn_S, Mar 2024
    We had a blast. There was only 10 in our group. Our guide, Jean, was the best. We started early and arrived before it got too busy. The waterslide was amazing. The cliff jumps were just on the border of terrifying. The rope swing great. Jean brought fruit treats and water. We are a bit on the older side, and Jean gave us the extra help that we needed. Always a hand out to help me up the rocks. The tour is not geared towards special needs. Be prepared for strenuous activity. I would recommend Jean over all the other guides we saw there. Never have I been treated so special. Loved our day!
    Incredible experience!!
    Phoebe_G, Mar 2024
    Jean was absolutely amazing! He is extremely knowledgeable and has amazing energy. Everything that was included with the tour was awesome and the smaller groups are really nice.
    Amazing tour guide!
    sarah_m, Mar 2024
    Jean is a wonderful tour guide! Goes above and beyond on the tour. Didn’t rush through the water experiences and even provided fresh fruit in the rainforest as a snack

    Where do I even start??! Jean was amazing! Best tour guide ever . My family and I enjoyed this experience. The trail was Very slippery ( so make sure you bring the correct shoes ). Jean took beautiful pics and videos of us along the trail . My favorite part was eating fruit that Jean had cut up , while enjoying the beautiful rainforest.
    Fun and Attentive
    Katherine_C, Mar 2024
    Jean was one of the nicest tour guide we’ve been on! There were two trails he took us on. One was fairly muddy and the second is much more intense. We did the water slide (really fun!) but there’s also options to do cliff jumping and rope swing into the water. You will get wet so definitely bring a second change of clothes. The fruit platter was such a nice treat.
    Amazing Hike!
    Katrina_P, Mar 2024
    Jean’s tour was the absolute best! He made the tour sooo much fun and easily assuaged our fears and anxieties sliding down the waterfalls and jumping off the cliff. I’m just glad he made us do it because we were ready to back out, but he just made us feel safe the entire time that the only way to go, is to go forward. The hike itself is easy to moderate with lots of mud trekking and rock/ boulder climbing which we absolutely loved. Could be challenging for individuals with mobility issues though. It’s definitely a workout but a great time under the canopy of the rainforest. We also like that he peppered us with history and geology bits about the country and the region and talked about some of the flora and fauna as well - this learning part is definitely appreciated. We felt that we got so much out of this early morning adventure with Jean’s tour - felt like winners of Survivor and the Amazing Race! We also had a delicious spread of tropical fruits by the river before we headed back up to the parking lot, then we capped the day off with a hearty lunch at Loquillo - the best ribs we’ve ever had for an unbeatable price that we took 2 plates to go for dinner. We also loved the people who were in this tour with us — good energy and vibes! Best times for sure! Thank you, Jean, and more power to you!
    Great Family Adventure
    Emily_D, Feb 2024
    am so glad I took the time to read about each touring option and then chose this one. Great from pickup to dropoff...fun, muddy, organized, plenty of time to eat and regroup. The teens boys and husband that I was with had time to cliff jump, rope swing, and slide over and over again. Fresh fruit is a great touch as well as the place we stopped before and after the hike. The hike was tougher for me with my decent but not great fitness level but it was a fun challenge that was made easier by Jean. He took care of everyone...even cleaned off our shoes for us. I very much recommend this tour...no complaints.
    Jean was great. Please...
    Danielle_H, Feb 2024
    Jean was great. Please take this tour if you’re looking for a slightly vigorous outdoor excursion. So much fun.
    Unforgettable Experience!
    Danielle_S, Feb 2024
    THE BEST EXPERIENCE! Loved it and would 10/10 go again! Great service, experience, guides, smiles and stories! ❤️
    A Fantastic Adventure
    Sharon_C, Feb 2024
    What a fantastic adventure!! The path up to the waterslide area is not a walk in the park. You need to be in reasonably good shape. Wear good hiking shoes that can handle water and mud. The climb up is muddy with lots of rocks and tree roots to maneuver, along with boulders to conquer and other fun stuff! Our guides, Jeanmar and Jesse were the best! They were fun, informative, encouraging, and appeared like magic whenever one of us needed a helping hand getting through a particularly tough spot. I was nervous about going down the slide and jumping off the cliff into the water, but with their encouragement I did both and totally loved it!! Im so glad we booked this tour. If you want to do something a little bit challenging and a whole lot of fun, book it!
    Great tour! Jean Perales...
    Paul_A, Feb 2024
    Great tour! Jean Perales is an awesome tour guide! The trail was challenging and Jean gave our group enough challenges and options and was always ready to guides/help. He even served us fresh fruits.
    Great- very high energy
    Holly_P, Feb 2024
    First of all, there genuinely are a lot of great things about this tour. The location is amazing, and seeing the jungle is so much fun! It was very very safe and well designed. I don’t want this to be “negative” review, I just want to share my experience. I did find the tour to be a little manic for me. For example, the drive (after we had picked everyone up) was about an hour and a half. during that time, the guide gave a deeply enthusiastic quiz about the history of the island. The car (of about ten people) was dead silent, no matter how many questions he asked us. No one participated beyond a few mumbled when he really, really pushed the everyone in the van. This kind of “forced audience participation” thing is really not my style. It was very high energy when I think it was quite clear that was not the vibe the group was looking for. Again- I think some groups would love that! They were certainly super friendly! And we did learn a lot.

    Fantastic day in the rainforest!
    Leonard_B, Feb 2024
    Jean is an amazing guide. We had a great time from when he picked us until he dropped us off. He has a great sense of humor, was patient with us, and very helpful getting through the day safely. The trip was fantastic. You will get muddy. Wear the proper footwear that Jean suggests. You'll have a place to clean up and change your clothes. There is hiking and a bit of climbing up over some rocks. You should be reasonably fit. We went down a natural waterslide, jumped off a rock into the water pool, and swung on a rope and dropped into a pool at the base of a waterfall. Jean made our day with cut fresh fruit after jumping around in the waterfalls. We all then got lunch together on the way back to San Juan.
    Response from Host, Feb 2024

    Best tour out there!
    Kristina_L, Feb 2024
    If you are looking for a great, fun, safe, all-inclusive tour in San Juan, look no further! Jean & Jeanmar were amazing tour guides for our Rainforest tour. There is a sea of options for tours, but we felt lucky we picked this one, as it was a personilized experience, informative, very active (in a good way), with absolutely no lines and touristy husstle of any way. They even park their vehicle in a different private zone (which im sure cost them a pretty penny), but helps avoid a dangerous and messy entrance/exit from the park. They also brought us water and tropical fruit and took really great photos of us on every turn, to made sure we need absolutely nothing during the tour. They thought of everything! Cannot recommend these guys enough! Next time we are in SJ, we will book ALL our tours with them!!
    Response from Host, Feb 2024

    My husband and I had an excellent tour with Juan! Just 4 of us made it more personal. We loved the extra touch of fresh fruit at the end of our tour.
