Customize your private Puerto Rico adventure…
MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR (EXCLUSIVE EPIC RAINFOREST ADVENTURE)
Discover the most magical secret waterfall in the rainforest with Atabey Tours! Our wooden cabin organic farm at the end of the road and at the start of the trail provides exclusive access to an untamed uncrowded masterpiece of Atabey (Taino Mother Earth). Jungle trails, epic river views, optional cliff jumping into an ancient volcanic river canyon carved by a thundering waterfall… Mud bath, natural water slides and more with a Puerto Rican local and world traveling explorer and musician.
LA PERLA & VIEJO SAN JUAN MAGICAL WALKING TOUR
Embark on our La Perla & Viejo San Juan Magical Walking Tour for a unique perspective from a local musician Andrés who called Viejo San Juan home for years! Discover the secret colonial history of Puerto Rico from the Taino to the Spanish to the US and beyond. Learn about Puerto Rican music, try local farm to table mountain coffee and explore the local gems of La Perla and Viejo San Juan.
NIGHT RAINFOREST BIOLUMINESCENCE
Venture into a magic world where very few explorers play. The rain forest at night is a unique and powerful experience that will overwhelm your senses. Listen to the Coqui tree frog jungle orchestra (hopefully we get to see a Coqui singing live), hear the Puerto Rican Mucaro Screech Owl calling, see the bioluminescent neon green glow in the mating display of the Cucubanos (tropical jungle fireflies) lighting up the jungle canopy in a surreal light show, and if we are lucky, maybe even spot some bioluminescent neon green mushrooms growing in the wild of the jungle. We will be trekking through the jungle at night as our guide Andres shares his vast experience of exploring this unique ecosystem at night from his many camping nights spent exploring the jungles of Puerto Rico and the magic that is totally unique to the night time rainforest on our island. Then, bathe under pristine mineral water from the rainforest for a rejuvenating waterfall massage in the heart of the jungle. The canopy of stars and the moon will keep us company to the sounds of the river. This is a surreal mystical experience for true adventurers searching for a true experiential high unlike any other. Meeting time is 5 PM (this way you can experience the transition from sunset to night time and experience the best of both worlds... we can also start later at night), and we explore for as long as you like as we have no rush in these magical places.

Who We Are!
Meet Andres
Explore our island with a local Boricua world traveler adventure guide! Andres, born and raised in Puerto Rico, has been on expeditions living with the Maasai Tribe amongst Lions in the African Savannah; navigated the entire Amazon River with Pink Dolphins; gone wilderness camping under glaciers with Grizzly Bears and wolves in Alaska.
He has also trekked in the Himalayas, lived in major cities around the world, and now brings this global perspective back home to Puerto Rico.
A Global Journey
He's gone on week-long silent spiritual retreats by the Ganga River in Rishikesh, India; trekked solo to the highest peak region on Planet Earth in the Himalayas of Nepal; camped an entire summer in Iceland and recorded music in Reykjavik.
Andres has lived in London, New Orleans, New York City, and Montreal, bringing a wealth of global experience to every adventure.
Rooted in Puerto Rico
Andres' Puerto Rican explorations began by hiking barefoot to the cloudy peaks of El Yunque to connect with ancestral Taino energy and the island's natural spirit.
Today he brings his world-traveling expertise back home to share the magic of Puerto Rico with adventurers from around the globe.
Environmental Commitment
Off Grid Relief
After Hurricane Maria, Andres founded Off Grid Relief, a non-profit that installed free solar systems for dozens of families in remote mountain communities.
His mission continues today through sustainable tourism, local stewardship, and long-term environmental responsibility.
Creating an Eco Village
The concept was to help build a fully off-grid eco village where residents were deeply affected by the hurricane and the failing power system, and to inspire neighboring communities to do the same.
Organic Fruit Forest
At the foothills of El Yunque, Andres is building an organic fruit forest with cacao, coconut, coffee, guava, soursop, and more so visitors can experience a living model of regenerative tourism.
Organic Fruit Forest
Andres' current home at the foothills of the rainforest is now the home base for our Magical Mystery Tour waterfall journey. He has planted over 20 varieties of organic fruit trees including:
- Cacao
- Coconut
- Coffee
- Acerola (Caribbean Cherry)
- Guanabana (Soursop)
- Guayaba (Guava)
- Aguacate (Avocado)
- Pomarrosa (Rose Apple)
- ...and many more!
The goal is to build an organic fruit forest travelers can enjoy as part of the adventure.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! Off the beaten path, a must do in PR.
If I could give this 10 stars, I would. Andres treated us like family, guided us on a secluded rainforest trail, and made this trip unforgettable.

The highlight of our trip to San Juan, Puerto Rico...
Outstanding guide with deep local knowledge. Pickup from Old San Juan was easy, and we visited beautiful hidden spots and a rainforest waterfall.
