Jason is incredible. He took his time showing us around, introduced us to the flora and fauna, and is incredibly attentive (also takes great pictures!) Him and our life guard with us were an ideal team of guides and I'm extremely happy with the day.

This tour was great! Adriana and Hector were super friendly and made the whole experience a lot of fun. It is a reasonably challenging hike with lots of climbing rocks and walking through slippery and muddy paths, so having hiking boots was a huge help! We stopped for a late lunch on the way back that was excellent as well. I would definitely recommend for anyone on the adventurous side!

This was our first time in an actual Rainforest. The tour guide, Adrianna, was very friendly, funny and educational. She also prides herself on safety. We enjoyed every moment including the hike. Hopefully next visit we will bring the grandchildren so that they can experience it with her leading the way!

An amazing crew (George, Luis, Mitchell[sp?]) led our group through El Yunque. I felt extraordinarily safe because of their expertise, but also because we were the only group wearing helmets! When sliding down natural water slides, jumping off cliffs, and rope swinging into the water, protective equipment gave me the confidence to go 100% and make the most of my experience.
George’s enthusiasm and knowledge made the road trip to El Yunque a blast, while he shared facts about Puerto Rico and notable sites as we passed them. On the hike, it was no different, as he pointed out native flora and fauna and shared the history of the rain forest with us. And he and his crew were great hype men when it came time to take a leap into the water!
I could not have asked for a better tour! Thank you, Bespoke!

Excellent day full of adventure but not so challenging that you couldn’t do it. Pace was great and all the photos at the end were a nice addition to the excursion. Hector and his teammate work well together and so knowledgeable about the area. It was a great day and highly recommend.

10/10 would recommend this guided tour for anyone looking for adventure in el yunque! It was such a fun day, and the tour guides Hector and Anthony were so kind and they made the trip a great time! I loved that it included pickup and drop off at our hotel. Hector was really knowledgeable about El Yunque and the island itself and shared a lot of interesting info throughout the tour. Safety was top priority and they did a great job preparing us for the hike and water activities (waterslides, cliff jump, rope swing) and guiding the path. I appreciate that they took great photos and air dropped them to us afterwords so we did not have to worry about taking our phones. This was an amazing experience. Thank you!

This company was insured and had us wear life jackets and helmets and it made us feel very safe while doing all of the activities. Luis and Jorge were amazing and so fun to be around. They made the experience much more enjoyable. And they took photos of us while we were doing the activities. So when they say not to bring your phones, you really don’t need to.
