What you'll do
Prepare yourselves to immerse into parts of the Rainforest that you won't see up in the touristy area! You will have the opportunity to sumerge in crystal clear waters, admire the most colorful of sceneries, enjoy beautiful waterfalls, natural springs and swimming areas. We will explore around 2 rivers and ravines that are not usually overcrowded by tourists, filled with magical spots and views where we will spend the afternoon. This experience it's full of adventure and adrenaline: We will climb some rocks, hike, get muddy feet, soak up a lot of sun, and be one with nature for a couple of hours, for which I strongly recommend having some basic hiking experience.
Remember that this experience takes place in a Rainforest, so the weather may sometimes not be on our side.
Other things to note:
Remember that having a good physical condition would be ideal.
Bring extra clothing!
Using sunblock it's highly recommended.
Boots, water shoes or hiking shoes are highly recommended also.
Make sure to bring towels!

Where you'll be
We will visit a couple of rivers in the forest, not very known or frecuented by regular tourists. This part of the forest it's mostly visited by locals and explorers, since it's not in the touristy zone.

I would rate this 10 stars if I could. Shirley really gets you involved in the magic of the rainforest. She wants you to see what most people pass on by. I love that she keeps her groups small for safety and engagement. Best part of my trip to Puerto Rico!

This is a must do experience if you are traveling to Puerto Rico. You will not find another guide and host with as much passion, knowledge, and love for her island as Shirley. She was extremely personable, shared such amazing stories of her adventures, educated us on the island, El Yunque, and the beauty around us. She was highly educatucated and had so much information to share regarding all things nature around us and so much more!
This is one of the most authentic trips I've been on and am I'm extremely grateful to Shirley for the tailored experience she provided my husband and I. She truly took us to a gem.
Bonus! She takes pictures! You can truly sit back and enjoy the experience and be provided with priceless captured moments. Thank you so much Shirley for this experience! I can't wait to go back and tour with you again. You have truly made me fall in love with Puerto Rico :)
