★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 1,215 reviews · from $59

This five-hour San Juan outing combines a rainforest hike to natural rock slides and waterfalls with time at Luquillo Beach. Guides such as Seth, Nick, Eric, Rah, and Caleb are praised for safety help, clear instructions, and taking photos. Expect slippery rocks, a moderate hike, Puerto Rican finger food, and a small group of up to 14.

“Definitely worth it to have someone walk you through the waterslides and what to expect. Our tour guide, Rah, was amazing. He was super knowledgeable, made sure everyone in the group was good, and got us some amazing photos. The socks are mandatory! It’s a short walk to the water but you’ll want to have socks, we wore them over our water shoes and were able to navigate the algae covered rock pretty easily. We also did the first tour of the morning and were pretty much the only ones there so I’d definitely recommend the earlier start if you’re worried about crowds.”
