What To Expect

To start your tour, you'll be picked up in comfortable buses in the Punta Cana, Bavaro, Uvero Alto and Bayahibe areas, with the best transfer's service,  where we will begin a terrific adventure full of new experiences. Our visitors will discover the amazing Dominican countryside through rural roads and magical places, ideal for taking pictures and being relaxed.

The journey will start at "El Seybo’s main highway" which will take the group from Bavaro to Miches in approximately an hour and a half. The trip will take the group to the dock where you'll get on a speedboat heading to Santa Barbara de Samana, where a safari-type truck will drive to "El Limon". Here the excursionists will have the opportunity to visit a typical Dominican house where you'll be in contact with native and organic fruits; you'll have the pleasure of savoring these fruits straight from the plantation.

At this point of the excursion, you will be ready to head to "El Limon Waterfall"  on a short, horse ride through the tropical forest that will lead to the mountain where you'll enjoy the unique view of the crystal clear water. Next, you'll leave the horses behind and go through "El Limon River" by foot until reaching the waterfall by stairs,  where you can take a nice and refreshing dive in a spot created by nature in the most artistic way. You will spend approximately 30 minutes at the falls.

On the way back, the tour will stop at "Rancho Tipico", where you can regain energy with a delightful Dominican style buffet. After a quick rest, where the group can share stories, emotions and memories of their unforgettable experiences, the tour will head back to the dock in "Samana". It is a speed boat ride to Bacardi Island or Cayo Levantado. Here, you  can bathe in its turquoise and virgin waters.

This adventure ends with a speedboat trip that will head back to Miches to board the buses that will take folks back to their hotels. It is simply the most exciting and complete road excursion in the Dominican Republic. Travelers can expect to be back to their hotels at approximately 6:30pm. It will be a fantastic experience!
