Discover the best of Puerto Rico in one epic day! Hike through the El Yunque rainforest, slide down natural slides and end your adventure kayaking in a bioluminescent bay! Discover the two most stunning natural wonders of Puerto Rico in one unforgettable day! Start your adventure with an early morning pickup in San Juan, where you'll board for a scenic drive along the north coast of Puerto Rico. Along the way, your guide will share fascinating information about the island's culture and landscapes. Your first stop will be Luquillo, where you'll taste fresh local fruits before continuing to the heart of Puerto Rico's rainforest. Discover the magic of El Yunque Rainforest. El Yunque, the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Forest System, is home to unique plants and animals, as well as cascading waterfalls. Walk on the lush jungle trails, cross rivers and immerse yourself in nature. Your expert guide will lead you to a hidden gem in the heart of the forest, a stunning natural pool with waterfalls. Swim in crystal clear waters, slide down a natural water slide, swing in the river and jump off rock formations for a thrilling experience. Then relax and savor fresh locally picked fruit while soaking in the beauty of your surroundings. After your rainforest adventure, take a break for dinner at a local restaurant (cost not included). Savor authentic Puerto Rican flavors while resting for the second half of your journey. Kayaking in the Bioluminescent Bay. At sunset, prepare for a kayaking trip to Laguna Grande in Fajardo, one of the rare bioluminescent bays in the world. After a safety briefing, paddle through a red mangrove forest, where you'll have stunning views of the night sky. When you reach the bay, watch in awe as the water glows with each paddle stroke. Bioluminescence, caused by tiny micro-organisms called dinoflagellates, creates a magical and shimmering effect in the water. Watch luminous fish dart beneath your feet, trails of light swirl with your every movement, and experience a light show unique to nature! Saturday tour details: Want an extra challenge?
