El Yunque rainforest & Luquillo Beach
Enjoy the best of both worlds in one day by combining two of the most important and visited attractions in just a few hours.
We start picking up in your hotel or in a location in your area. Be ready for a fresh smoothie with local fruits from the season and a breakfast empanada like a local (not included / optional). After that, we are ready to visit the beach for approximately 90 minutes before the day gets hot.
After you remove the sand using the showers in the area, we are ready to Discover and Explore; At El Yunque Rainforest we will stop at the observation tower "Yokahu" and enjoy one of the best views on the island. La Coca Falls is perfect to take the most amazing and memorable pictures. We also do a lunch stop at a family restaurant inside the forest (lunch is not included in the price of the tour). At the last stop, you will be able to swim in the crystal-clear waters of the river.
