El Yunque Hike and Bio Bay Kayak Combo Tour

Free cancellation · 24hPickup included

This combo packs the island's two signature outdoor experiences into one transported day from San Juan: a guided hike through El Yunque's off-pavement zones to natural pools, a waterfall, and waterslides, then, after a lunch stop at a Puerto Rican restaurant (food cost not included), a nighttime kayak through the mangrove channels into Laguna Grande, where the pyrodinium bahamense plankton light up the water at a touch. The operator is direct that this is a moderate to strenuous day: the hike involves river wading and rock scrambling, the bio bay leg means paddling a two-person kayak in coordination, and the whole outing runs about 12 hours. Hotel pickup from San Juan is included, with an additional fee for pickups outside the city.

Pro tip

Read the requirements before booking: closed-toe shoes with grip for the hike, water shoes for the bio bay, a strict 225-pound per-person weight limit that the operator enforces with weigh-ins, and a minimum age of 7. The rainforest portion is weather dependent, with an alternative date or full refund if it is called off.
