What you can expect

Take time to escape to heaven on Earth in this exclusive half day tour. Let the natural beauty of El Yunque Rainforest captivate you with its lush green vegetation, amazing flora, huge boulders, cascading rivers and scenic views. You will be immersed in a wild, secluded paradise and be mesmerised by Mother Nature’s beauty at its best. At the same time you will be fully infused with the vibrating energy of El Yunque’s rivers and clean air, just like the indigenous Taíno tribe did centuries ago. Nature will be your accomplice in this exhilarating adventure. It will reward you with a sense of accomplishment and a powerful surge of energy, which will be your driving force for days, months and years to come.

We will begin with a visit to El Portal's Visitor Centre. Here you will have the opportunity to see a live Puerto Rican parrot, enjoy from multiple interactive exhibitions, small trail and natural spaces.

We will then make a stop at La Coca Falls—a 85 feet (26 m) waterfall—quickly comes into view with its magnificent drop down onto huge rock formations and a shallow-water pool. Great for picture opportunities!

Then climb 98 spiral steps to the top of Yokahú Tower at 69 feet (21 m) tall, where views are unobstructed and far-reaching. At this point you are 1,500 feet (457 m) above sea level and it is a great place to relax before your return trek.

Depending on the pace of the group we will stop the river or do a 15-20 minute trail that leads to a river pool. This stop is not guaranteed.
