H&J Island Adventures Inc. operates from Fajardo, Puerto Rico, offering guided outdoor experiences that focus on rainforest exploration and adventure. The company runs three signature trips: a Meet up and Follow Rainforest Adventure that departs from Ralphs in Fajardo (6:45am start; only available December and March), a Private Custom Tour/Adventure with a private guide and tailored route, and the Muddy Rainforest Adventure & Sightsee which combines hiking, jumps, swimming, and a natural body slide.
Each tour features hands-on outdoor activity: rope swings, rock jumps, natural water slides, and natural pools. Guests should expect scenic hikes through El Yunque’s lush trails, opportunities for swimming, and moments of playful mud and climbing. Snacks are included after the Meet up Rainforest Adventure, and some private tours provide snacks and lunch as part of the itinerary.
Meeting logistics are clear for the Fajardo-only meetup option: customers gather at Ralphs in Fajardo before following the guide along marked trails. Private Custom Tours allow groups to explore hidden spots away from crowds and to customize pacing and route.
H&J Island Adventures Inc. emphasizes guided, on-foot exploration with small groups or private bookings, offering family-friendly options and adventurous activities suitable for those seeking active outdoor experiences. Safety and clear instructions are part of the guided format, and the trips are designed to create memorable family experiences and photo opportunities in Puerto Rico’s rainforest settings.
Reservations are coordinated through the company, and meeting details are provided at booking to ensure clear directions and timing for guests.
