Express visit to El Yunque - I really liked it, it's something that if you are in Puerto Rico you have to do. It's pretty fast. It only takes half a day and you get to know the most important points of Yunke

Great five hour tour - We thought our tour guide Luis was outstanding. He was so knowledgeable of the area and answered all of our questions and it was a thoroughly enjoyable day. It was an easy hike and we drove in the van to the more difficult areas to get to. It was very easy day nothing strenuous.
