    Worth every cent! Daughter and I had an excellent experience from start to end. Edwin is a wonderful guide, you learn a lot from him during the hike and he has a great sense of humor so it's an overall fun time. Safety is their highest priority so even though parts may sound scary, you are in great hands. We would take the tour again and recommend it to anyone traveling to PR! Note: make sure you have your cell phone (or whatever small valuables) in a waterproof or floating container, someone dropped their cell phone in the water during the tour and although no one thought it would be found (it was dropped while in the cave), Edwin managed to work his magic and the person got their phone back. It was quite an impressive find, and just shows you the dedication to making sure everyone has a great experience. Make sure your stuff floats and is secure!

    I can't recommend this group enough, we had the best time! The guide was amazing! He was so knowledgeable about the area and really made the entire tour amazing for us.

    We did a wonderful tour with Omar. We kayaked through a huge cave, hiked, and swim through the river. So much more!!! It was a truly beautiful experience!! We can't say enough about Omar!!! He was so knowledgeable and sweet!! My asthma was hitting me as we hiked back up. He was kind enough to make me stop and take a second. He had me take off my life vest and he carried it so I didn't have to worry about it. The views and sights were out of this world! We won't forget this adventure!!

    Edwin was a personable, funny guide who remembered all our names & was always happy to take a pic for us! 5 of us went on the short cave kayak tour. It was beautiful & well worth the price. The drive is curvy to get there, but the roads are well kept. (Do not speed. You will be targeted in a rental car) The zip lines are being repaired, but we will definitely check here first when we return to PR.

    Can't say enough good things about Batey Zipline Adventures! These guys are everything that you could expect from a ecotour in Puerto Rico. We did the horseback riding with our young one and were excited to have an extremely friendly and experienced guide who was able to combine an educational experience with an amazing adventure. We were just blown away by the personalized service and the well mannered horses. The property is everything that is advertised, well maintained with a minimal impact on the environment. If you are looking for one adventure in Puerto Rico outside of the food and culture, give Batey Zipline Adventures a chance!

    This trip was awesome. This area was unaffected by the earthquakes & a must do if your in the area. Our tour guides Alex & Edwin were awesome . Easygoing, attentive , taught us about the island , & most of all endured we had a safe & fun experience!

    Definitely recommend batey zipline adventure for anyone who is looking for fun near the arecibo area. We were given clear instructions to the meet up site ( definitely bring water and a few extra). It does get hot and especially hiking up to the zipline point. Both instructors were very clear with safety instructions and i definitely had a great time

    Kayaking through this cave!

    I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend the "Extended all-inclusive tour!! It was the perfect combination of a little of everything which is exactly what we were looking for. AJ and Edwin were outstanding tour guides. They were very knowledgeable about the plants and animals, they picked oranges and raspberries for us to eat, explained each of the activities in great detail (which made us feel very safe) and they kept things light and fun! They also took incredible photos of us throughout the tour so we could capture those extra moments! I loved both of them and the tour - A++!!

    ¡Lo mejor! Esposo and I had a wonderful time ziplining through the mountains. Our guides, Edwin & AJ, were friendly, funny, and extremely knowledgeable. I was craving a zipline adventure and this was more than I could hope for! We had the best time ever! Definitely check out the vegan cafe attached to the headquarters for an after-zipline meal. ¡Zuuuumba!

    Island Venture - Great blue water!

    Island Venture

    4.9(10 reviews)

    Island Venture is the one and only ferry that takes the public to and from Caja de Muertos. Only…read moreone ferry sets sail each day. The only other way to get there is by private boat. Launching from La Guancha, the dock was easy to get to and there was plenty of parking. For $28 roundtrip (as of 12/16), it was a value excursion! On this uninhabited island, there are no stores or vendors. Bring your own food, drinks, and beach comfort items. The ferry does sell drinks, some alcoholic beverages, snacks, and food (hot dogs and kebabs). You have to preorder the food in the morning and they'll cook it up fresh while you go play on the island, serving lunch at noon. For $60, you get roundtrip transportation and twelve meal and drink tickets (two tickets for food items, one ticket for snacks and drinks, including beer). The prices onboard are actually quite reasonable, so the meal tickets really aren't that much of a deal, in my opinion. You can also rent beach chairs and snorkeling gear from Island Ventures at very affordable prices. On this gorgeous island, we wanted to do it all! We wanted to hike to the lighthouse, explore the caves, play at the beach...everything! But we somehow couldn't get away from the water. We played at the beach, snorkeled, and then beached again. Snorkeling gear was only ten bucks to rent (as of 12/16), but because I can't swim and needed a life vest, I paid another two bucks for the whole shebang. While we were close to coral along the shore, it wasn't the best snorkeling environment. Not a lot of wildlife around all those human types that lined the shores. There were many fish under the dock, so we carefully explored that area. The water is a brilliant turquoise, but not very clear (it wasn't dirty, it just wasn't crystal clear), so it was often times difficult to see, even from a short distance away. Ferry leaves La Guancha at 8:30 AM on the dot, so get there early to check in and grab a seat. The forty-five minute ride each way is pretty smooth. Ferry leaves the island at 3:30 PM. That's almost six hours on the island! For us, it was just right. A perfect day on a gorgeous island with an attentive ferry staff.

    We had an AMAZING day at Isla Caja de Muertos aka Coffin Island (which annoys me because it's not a…read moreword for word translation and Box of the Dead Island sounds way better). The Island itself is 5 + stars, but one of the only ways to get there (Island Ventures) knocks it down a star. Island Venture Ferry Basics -- $25 per person which includes two drink tickets (can be claimed for Medalla Light, Coors Light, or soda). You can also upgrade your ticket for $10 and get 15 drink tickets (!) --Boat leaves from La Guancha at 8:30am (but you must arrive by 7:40am) and from the island at 3:30 (boards at 3). Ride takes about 45 minutes and has a lower level with shade. --They also sell hot dogs and kebabs and rent umbrellas on the ship and the ship stays docked there so you can continue to purchase drinks/food while you're on the island. Caveats: --The company holds weird hours and are hard to get a hold of, especially if you don't speak Spanish. --Their online booking system can be glitchy, my friend's reservation got mixed up for the wrong day. --Spots book up fast, book early! --They charge a fee for coolers (although we had soft/bag style coolers and were not charged). --We shared the boat with a school trip...so yea, there's that. ISLAND --AWESOME. --Walk up (down? into?) the cave. --Walk up to the lighthouse for some AMAZING views (30 minutes, bring water, we did it in flip flops but prob shouldn't have). --Love life on the beach. Watch out for jellyfish though! --Snorkel! (Not the best I've seen, but still cool). --Admire cacti and wildlife (hermit crabs and lizards everywhere!) During some seasons there are apparently sea turtles nesting! --Pack a picnic and enjoy it on the picnic tables! They also have compost "bathrooms." They smell and don't have soap, but there's TP! --Avoid the small beach to the left of the dock (if you're facing the island)-loaded with bugs! --Perfect day trip and one of my favorite activities from our Puerto Rico trip! ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND. Must go!

The views are spectacular and I have to say our tour guide Mariel was AMAZING. She made the tour so exciting for us and my two nieces. She went out of her way to show us things I KNOW she didn't have too but she did because she wanted us to have a great experience. I recommend this tour to anyone and everyone. Yes we do a lot of hiking so maybe not for everyone but if you want an adventure and see Puerto Rico trust me you will on this tour. Thank you to Mariel and the company for everything! Best day of our trip! The ONLY reason I would take out one star is because they have no clear directions to get to the tour on the website. We put the address in the GPS and it took us 20 mins away from the actual tour. We called them and the employee we talked too seemed really annoyed that we were lost and wasn't too helpful! I just wish he had more patience. Thank God we talked Spanish if not I don't see how we would've gotten there on time with the employees attitude. But at the end helped us a bit and we got there on time. By the way, The employee was not the same one we toured with.

My friends and I had every intention of purchasing tickets online in advance but it slipped our minds. By the time we decided on going, and with the slight traffic that there was, we would make it there with only a couple minutes to spare. We tried purchasing our tickets online, but the website told us to call (most likely since we were so close to the time slot). When we called, they answered immediately. They were understanding of our situation and informed us that if we could make it there before 3:30, they could try to settle us into the slot. We sped there and made it at 3:15. They have a grass area for parking. One of the staff members helped us with filling out some forms, weighing us, and explaining some of the basic information. We used the bathroom before proceeding. Next, we were given horses based on height, weight, and experience. It was nice to see all the planning that goes behind the distribution of horses. They are really considerate towards the horses and make sure that the person and animal are a good fit. There were about 4 young people helping everyone onto the horses. I was originally given Godiva - like the chocolate - but later switched to Tonka - like the truck. We were split into two groups, mine led by Kiara. The experience truly does take the full 2 hours. It starts by going through a complex of very nice houses, then goes into a more woodsy environment, and then the beach. The beach was breathtaking. Our group stopped on the beach and Kiara offered to take group and solo pictures, and also made sure we were still comfortable on the horses and offered help if not. Sometimes, we'd get the horses to go fast on straight aways, and that brought me a lot of laughter and joy. My horse was a bit stubborn and did stop to eat multiple times. I was embarrassed that I could not control my horse, but the leaders were kind about it. The experience with taxes included was about $95 per person which I thought was fair and cheaper than some other ones around. I would highly recommend.

You'd get a text message reminder a day before the tour and they would ask if you have food restrictions or allergies. You'd also get a reminder where the meeting spot is.

Pablo ordered the food before hand so that when the group arrived at the different restaurants/places, the food was ready and we did not have to wait that long. Our first stop was Cafe Cuatro Sombras where we had coffee and croissant ham/provolone cheese/guava butter. I liked this croissant with a hint of tanginess/sweetness from the guava. Noncoffee drinkers had options of lemonade and tea. Second stop was Señor Paleta. There's no indoor seating here so we had the delicious parcha (passion fruit) popsicle. Yum! Very refreshing, great for this warm weather! Third stop was Cafe El Punto. This place has a lot of artwork by local artists. We had ceviche de pescado and alcapurrias de la casa which were nice. Fourth stop was El Patio de Sam where we "made" our own mofongo. We had fried plantains and garlic butter, mashed them in a mortar and pestle, and added the chicken before turning the mortar upside down to get the mofongo.
