Take time to escape from the city and dare yourself to explore El Yunque Rainforest. Hike, river trek, rock climb, spot its flora and fauna, and enjoy its gorgeous waterfalls, natural pools, and waterslides. Along with your knowledgeable certified tour guide, you will be immersed in a wild paradise and fully infused with the vibrating energy of El Yunque's rivers and fresh clean air, just like the indigenous Taino Indians did centuries ago.
