Our tour departs from our 9:00am meeting spot in the Isla Verde / Condado area, where we'll meet and ride in our exceptionally equipped Land Rover vehicles, heading East to the spectacular El Yunque Rainforest. We'll take the "old road" through the Piñones (Pinyon Pine) State Forest, alongside one of the longest undeveloped beaches in Puerto Rico. Soon we'll be chugging our way 2,000 feet above sea level to some of the most beautiful waterfalls, streams, geology and foliage in the Caribbean.

We'll stop at the El Portal Visitors Center for a short video showing the history of the rainforest, and to explore the interactive educational displays. On our way out, we'll walk the short (.4 mile) El Portal interpretive trail where we'll see the beauty of El Yunque face to face. We'll leave the Visitors Center and continue to higher altitudes to see La Coca Falls, to climb the Yokahu Observation Tower, and see the famous Baño Grande. There will be time for your group to choose from one of the exceptional short hikes, as well.

After our picnic lunch at one of the picturesque picnic areas in El Yunque, we'll do some light off-road driving with our destination being a beautiful, secluded beach. We'll set up our luxury camp (tents, tables, chairs, hammocks, loo, solar power station, freshwater shower, etc), where you'll enjoy unique snacks and beverages, leading up to a delicious gourmet dinner.

On Day Two, we'll wake to the smell of fresh pressed Puerto Rican coffee (in our opinion, the best coffee in the world!). As we greet the day with our relaxed pace we'll enjoy a delicious gourmet breakfast. There will be plenty of time for swimming, for walking the beach, relaxing, playing dominoes, or simply relaxing in a hammock and listening to the breezes blow through the palms. Bring your book, and your sunscreen!

We'll prepare a farewell lunch on the beach where we'll raise a toast to each other, to Puerto Rico, and we'll say goodbye to our beautiful stretch of ocean before returning to the Isla Verde / Condado hotel zones.
