POST CRUISE, EL YUNQUE RAIN FOREST TOUR AND HIKE WITH TRANSFER TO AIRPORT
$84 Per Person

Now you don't need a large group to get a superb trip to El Yunque. One of our favorite tour operators is now providing this fabulous tour for as few as four people.

Out of the metropolitan area, 'on the island' there are a variety of excursions; as it is a small island, it is possible to see forested mountains and desert-like areas without having to travel great distances. El Yunque, or the Caribbean National Forest, is a tropical forest and a bird sanctuary, the largest rain forest in the US forest service system.

The forest is divided into the north side and the south side, with no road connection. Concrete trails to the various peaks, as well as to waterfalls and look-out towers, give excellent views.

After a 45-minute ride, we will visit El Portal Tropical Forest Center to enjoy a documentary about the forests' interesting features. El Portal opened in 1996 and, besides giving you an education, it provides patios where you can relax and enjoy the views. A low-impact hiking trail (Caimitillo) at Palo Colorado Information Center will follow, and you will learn more about the nesting habits of the Puerto Rican Parrot. Also included are short stops at La Coca Falls and Yocahú Observation Tower.

Due to weather conditions, the order of the schedule on all the tours could vary.
