Greetings! Welcome to Puerto Rico "The Island of Enchantement" When I was a 16 year old boy working in the Southwest of the island in the Municipality of "Lajas, La Parguera", I got my first car and drivers license and decided to get lost in the Island of Enchantment Puerto Rico. Ever since i've been piling up contacts, photos, directions, information and unique experiences to share with my friends. During those days it never crossed my mind that I would end up doing this for a living and to support my family as my main source of income but it came true after working in different hotels, restaurants all over the island, Meeting Planning and finishing up my bachelors degree in Tourism Arts at the Sacred Heart University in Santurce. Sincerely I have been very fortunate to be able to work on my own as a tour operator and tour guide becoming licensed by the Tourism Company of Puerto Rico. In my 48 years of age I believe that this beautiful paradise is a lot more than a small archipelago of islands and this is true thanks to our people, our customs, traditions and a very rich culture that makes us unique. We locals are in love with our island and is the reason why I wish to share how beautiful and interesting it is with everyone that visits. This web space is a service area more than anything else to all travelers and individuals that love to get away and find themselves in a different country and/or enjoying with family and friends while learning something new along the way. Please feel free to contact me or to ask any questions that comes to mind about my tours and Puerto Rico in general. Thank you very much! -Héctor C Tour Operator - Licensed by the Service Commission of Puerto Rico Tour Guide - Licensed by the Tourism Company of Puerto Rico CPR and First Aid - Licensed by the Red Cross Lifeguard Licensed by the US Coastguard program Puerto Rico Superhost

I would pick up at your metropolitan area centered hotel, cruise ship or Airbnb and head to Luquillo municipality in the northeastern part of the island. We would then head down into the river on a local's well kept trail. Enjoy the rainforest and the river like the locals do! Swim, jump, slide at the naturally carved waterslides and get inside a nice waterfall. After the river we can go to a good local restaurant to have lunch and then afterwards we would discover a beautiful hidden beach, visit the visitors center "El Portal" where you could observe and take pictures of the Puertorrican Parrot (El Yunque's most endangered bird), a nice Zipline or instead head to "Carabali" to drive the ATV's and/or go horse back riding. You guys decide!
We would drive straight to the Luquillo mountains and visit some waterfalls, drops and very cool waterslides carved by the river. Safety first always this unique local adventure is for people that are a little more active and in good shape We would hike through to get inside the river for like 15 to 20 minutes. The tour guide will be with you at all times helping and getting you to the area through some big boulders at the river and giving information as we go. We could spend a couple of hours there swimming in the river waters of "El Yunque". Afterwards we could drive along the coast, get in the water at the beach and later recommend some nice places to eat. We could also design something custom instead of the beach if the group prefers we could include a stop in one of the following experiences: Rainforest Zipline's, horseback riding in the forest or ATVs.
