Tanama-River-Adventures<br />
Guided tubing on the Tanama<br />
River combines an adventure<br />
in nature with an exploration<br />
of Taino culture.<br />
Tanamá River Adventures<br />
One of the most exciting ways to discover Puerto Rico’s subterranean features is on a Tanamá River Adventure. Explore<br />
ancient trails with Taíno guides who know the flora and fauna and can safely lead you on a thrilling tubing and even rappelling<br />
experience through the river caves. Look for Taíno petroglyphs and aritfacts in the caves, hike through verdant rainforest, and<br />
observe a family-run farm harmoniously carved out of the land.<br />
The Tanamá River is located at Utuado, in the central mountains of Puerto Rico.<br />

TOURISM IN<br />
PUERTO RICO<br />
Only three of the Puerto Rican Parrots living in the wild<br />
survived the hurricanes; now there are fifty, as well as<br />
nearly 800 living in aviaries.<br />
Puerto Rico’s economy is highly dependent on<br />
tourism. As such, one of the best ways we can<br />
help the island recover from setbacks is to visit.<br />
Fortunately, Puerto Rico is one of the largest<br />
islands in the Caribbean, and it has been gifted<br />
with a grand variety of beautiful natural resources,<br />
in addition to its idyllic beaches. There’s no<br />
question that visitors have many opportunities to<br />
practice responsible eco-tourism.<br />
