  • 5Best Tour I’ve Ever Been On

    Jean and Enrique were absolutely the best. From the very beginning, It felt like they were part of the crew we came with. They were punctual, professional, knowledgeable, and made everyone in our group feel completely safe and comfortable. They were chill. It felt like we were exploring Puerto Rico with friends. I ate the Red Snapper from the spot they suggested and it was FANTASTIC. These guys know the food spots 🔥 Jean went above and beyond to make my time unforgettable, he passed by a location very special to me and gave me new core memories that I’ll carry with me forever. I’m absolutely thankful for him for doing that. If you’re looking for guides who genuinely care about the people they’re with and know how to make an experience both informative and fun, please choose these guys, you won’t regret it! Thank you both for making our time in Puerto Rico special 🇵🇷

  • 5Amazing and memorable!

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jean and Enrique are the best! Our group of 12 did El Yunque with Tours to Do PR, and Jean and Enrique made the trip. They were on time, friendly, respectful, and so knowledgeable about the plants and ecosystem. You can tell they love what they do, and they made all 12 of us feel safe and taken care of. We hiked, did the rope swing, cliff jumping, and water slide while they took great photos and videos. A few days later they took us on a beach tour to a different part of the island, and it was just as amazing. Highly recommend! Thank you! 🙏

  • 5AMAZING? !

    We had such a great experience with Jean and Enrique! They were both so friendly, attentive, and accommodating from beginning to end. They really went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. They even added a little tour within our tour and made an extra stop that wasn’t originally planned, which we really appreciated. They never made us feel rushed and were always checking to make sure we were enjoying ourselves. It was obvious that they genuinely cared about giving us a memorable experience and showing us a great time. Jean and Enrique were amazing, and they definitely made our time in Puerto Rico even more special. We would absolutely recommend them and would love to tour with them again! 🇵🇷❤️

  • 5Great El Yunque Escape

    Great half day trip. They picked me up from my airbnb. Enrique is a very good guide. Knowledgeable and funny. Made the trip safe and fun. I would highly recommend Enrique and the tour. You get to enjoy a private side of el yunque that you won't get to see from the public visitor side.

About Luquillo

Luquillo is a beach town on Puerto Rico's north-east coast, beside El Yunque rainforest, with a palm-fringed beach and roadside food kiosks.

Luquillo sits on Puerto Rico's north-east coast, where the green slopes of the Luquillo Mountains meet the Atlantic. La Monserrate beach, a long crescent of sand with palms and calm shallow water, is a favourite with families. Behind the town the mountains rise into El Yunque National Forest, the only tropical rainforest in the United States national forest system, with waterfalls, hiking trails and the tiny coquí tree frogs that sing after dark.
