Do your research to have a great time - Great tour guides and great experience. Please do your research and wear the right shoes. I saw so many come in with brand new white shoes and you will be walking in mud and through rivers.

First time to Puerto Rico and had a great time in the rainforest - Had a great time on the trip they say that the hike is strenuous but it is just very muddy and slippery and the path gets very narrow because of the ruts you have to walk through so having good balance will help you a lot but the trail is wide enough your not gonna fall off a cliff or anything guides were attentive and knew what they were doing highly recommended for anyone who is interested in seeing the forest and having a good time.

Tour with Orlando - This was amazing. Our tour guide Orlando was the best. He was very knowledgeable, well spoken, and extremely helpful. He always put safety first while encouraging you to step out of your comfort zone. We are so grateful we wound up with him as our guide. I would recommend this tour with Orlando to anyone!

An exhilarating excursion to the Puerto Rico rain forest. - The trip was very well guided and planned out. It was super fun and my tour guide Orlando was very helpful the whole way through the trip. He also took lots of pictures for us so we didn't have to worry.

Need your own car!!! - You must have your own vehicle. This was not clearly explained to us until after the cancellation window and we could not get a refund. We booked a shuttle because of how large our party was and were told that we had to have our own car because we would meet the guide and then drive for another 30 minutes to where we would park. This was need to know information. We tried to book a rental and it was too late. We cancelled based on what they told us and were not able to get a refund. The company later said we could have booked a tour for later the same day with transportation, but this was not offered as a solution at the time and was offered after we booked with another company! We booked about 5 months in advance and this was something we were really looking forward to. In the end, this place felt like a major scam.
