Disappointed.

The tour operator is rude when there was a problem you called for. The main tour guide was not very friendly or helpful especially if you do not swim. His accent was strong and hard to understand. Also I picked the tour w/o transport because trip advisor had the option of tour start point as plaza colon, so I automatically assumed that it did not require transport as I was staying near the Plaza. I had messaged them previously regarding this to make sure my pick up was the Plaza and all they said was you will be informed the night before of the time of pick up. On the night of the tour they inform me that plaza colon is not a pick up point and you have to pay an additional $120 for transport from the plaza. Why wasnt this clarified this when I had initially messaged them? I would have booked another tour. Very disappointed.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and we are truly sorry for the frustration you experienced. Plaza Colón is absolutely a pickup point, however the transportation option must be selected at booking, as you mentioned choosing the tour without transport. We understand how that detail could have felt confusing, and we have worked to further clarify this on TripAdvisor to help avoid future misunderstandings. We are also sorry to hear about your guide communication concerns. For non swimmers, we provide life vests for non swimmers specifically to help guests feel secure and supported throughout this safety focused tour. If you are open to it, we would appreciate the opportunity to provide a better experience with Paradise Seekers Puerto Rico.

Amazing!

Julio was awesome! Loved his island and was proud to be there! He was very knowledgeable about the rainforest, the island, and the ecosystem of Puerto Rico. Riley and Oliver were great as well, very helpful and took pictures/videos for you so you don’t damage your phone! We were brought to the less touristy areas as well so we got more of an experience than other groups I think!

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hi Lauren! We love hearing how much Julio’s passion for the island stood out to you! He truly is a knowledgeable rainforest guide who takes pride in sharing the rainforest ecosystem education behind every trail, sound, and waterfall. It is even better knowing you appreciated exploring off the beaten path areas, away from the crowds, for a more authentic local experience. Riley and Oliver will be so happy to hear you enjoyed the tour photos and videos so you could stay present without worrying about your phone.

Super fun and exciting! Wear sneakers as water shoes don’t have the best grip. Don’t hesitate to try it out even if you aren’t the fittest. The guides were extremely helpful.

Response from Host, Apr 2026

Hi Akia! Thank you for sharing such an upbeat and encouraging review! El Yunque adventure days are all about rainforest fun, and we are so glad you found it super fun and exciting from start to finish. Thank you for the great tip about sneakers for better grip on those natural water slides, that advice will definitely help future adventurers feel more prepared. We are especially happy you felt supported by our helpful guides and comfortable tackling a beginner-friendly hike, even if you do not consider yourself the fittest. That confidence boost is what it is all about. When you are ready for more island excitement, reach out and check out other incredible tours with Paradise Seekers Puerto Rico!

So glad we did it with Paradise Seekers!

I usually don’t like to write review unless the experience was outstanding or was really bad that I want people to be aware of. This is our first time in Puerto Rico (and won’t be the last for sure) and we did the El Yunque tour with Paradise Seekers today and we were impressed and very happy that we chose to book with them. From the beginning, Arnie was the one who got in touch with us when we reached out with some questions. He was very helpful and tried to accommodate our needs and concerns as we have small kids (7 and 10 years old). We appreciate his honesty and all the efforts to try to give us some good information. On the day of the tour, we got picked up from our hotel right on time. Alvin was our driver and he was very nice and friendly. The car was clean, and comfortable. Julio was our main tour guide along with another 2 assisting guides (I’m so bad at remembering names). They all are great and very helpful. If you don’t want to bring your phone along, one of the tour guide will take videos and pictures for you from her phone for you. Julio was so great and very knowledgeable about the rain forest. He is one of those who does this not just because it’s his job but he also enjoys doing it. The other tour guides were great as well. They were really helpful and always made sure everyone can hike up safely. I would highly recommend this company if you are looking for the rain forest tour. Thanks to Paradise Seekers team for the most fun excursion we did on our first time in Puerto Rico!

Hi Wanida! Wow, what an incredible review to receive, especially from someone who only writes when it truly counts. It means so much that your first trip to Puerto Rico included a family-friendly rainforest tour that left such a strong impression. Arnie truly cares about setting the right expectations, especially for families with young kids. From smooth hotel pickup service with Alvin to Julio’s passion as a knowledgeable rainforest guide, it sounds like the day flowed exactly as it should. We are also glad you appreciated the safe hiking experience and the tour photos and videos captured along the way. When you are ready for your next island adventure, reach out and check out more unforgettable experiences with Paradise Seekers Puerto Rico!

Itinerary

  • El Yunque National Forest

    Choose a morning or afternoon departure that fits your plans, and upgrade to roundtrip transfers for a smooth, no stress day. In a small group, follow your local guide off the main trail into El Yunque’s hidden corners, learning about Puerto Rico’s unique plants, wildlife, and rainforest ecology along the way. Then trade the city heat for cool river water as you hike to natural pools and waterfalls, swim beneath the canopy, and experience the island’s famous natural waterslides. For those who want an extra adrenaline dose, OPTIONAL cliff jumping and rope swings are available. You choose what you feel comfortable doing. Helmets and life jackets are provided for safety. We require sneakers for traction and foot protection on wet rocks. Your guide can help take photos on your device during the tour. You will finish with a light lunch, snacks, and refreshments.

  • After the rainforest, recharge with a stop at Los Kioskos de Luquillo, a lively row of beachside spots known for local bites, quick souvenirs, and classic island vibes. Browse small shops for gifts and keepsakes, grab food or a cold drink, then take in the views and snap photos by the water. The beach here is easy to access, making it a perfect, relaxed finish before heading back.
