Spend about eight hours exploring beyond Punta Cana’s resorts, with hotel pickup, horseback riding, a family coffee and cocoa farm, Higüey’s basilica and market, Dominican lunch, ziplining, and a buggy ride with a possible river swim. Guides including Javier, Chris, Juan, and Christian have been associated with the tour, but your guide may vary. Budget for dust, mud, and optional photos.

“Transpiration was very easy, horseback riding was great timing it lasted about 30 minutes, then we did cigar tasting, the buggies were fast and easy to drive, I recommend taking someone to hold your phone because there’s mug flying everywhere, halfway in the buggies we got into a river so be prepared for that, the zip line was so fun and they had great views. Also the food was buffet style and I loved it.”
