Small Group Exclusive 4x4 ATV Punta Cana: Jungle & Wild Beaches!

Lisa_M, Jul 2026

Best excursion in DR

If you only plan to do one excursion while in DR this is the one! Everything about this excursion was perfect from the pick up to drop off. We were picked up in an air conditioned van and driven to the location where we met our guide, Maria and her crew. Everyone was extremely professional and they took time to go over all the safety instructions and made sure we new how to drive the ATV. Our tour went through a local village, then down to the beach and through the jungle. We stopped at the home of a local resident that lived near the beach and we were able to try fresh coconuts and coffee. We had the option to swim at the beach but we all chose to ride more through the jungle. We had a delightful time and would definitely do this tour again

Montana

This was our favorite experience! It was a long day but so many fantastic adventures. Carlos and Jimmy took great care of us, and are the best tour guides and both so kind. 10 star if it was an option! Also only a small group of us so it didn’t feel like a busy tourist activity.

Half-day City tour cultural from punta cana for small group

Ashleigh_A, Jul 2026

Great experience highly recommend if you are interested in seeing outside your hotel.

We had a wonderful tour with Andy who speaks wonderful English and is very knowledgeable about the area as well as local Dominican culture. We participated as a family with two children age 11 and 15 and it was a very memorable experience for everyone, so much was packed into one day but we did not feel rushed. I like that we were able to make many visits and sample local products but there was not pressure to purchase. It was more about seeing how things are made, and getting a sense of how people live in the area around Punta Cana. We visited the iconic church, local market, rolled cigars, tasted fresh macao, had a delicious home cooked lunch, visited a beautiful local beach (better conditions than our hotel due to sargassum) and horse back riding, all this and we were done before 3pm. We chose to stay longer at the beach and uber back to our hotel because it was so beautiful there. Wonderful service and communication throughout. Even if we had rented a car there is no way we would have uncovered so many hidden gems and so efficiently. Thank you!

Great Way to Discover the Dominican Republic

I had a great experience on this Santo Domingo tour! Our tour guide, Darius, was fun, energetic, and incredibly knowledgeable. He spoke three languages fluently and did an excellent job explaining the history of the Dominican Republic in a way that was engaging and easy to follow. You could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does. A special thanks as well to our driver, who drove safely and professionally throughout the entire journey, making the long trip comfortable and stress-free. I highly recommend this tour if you want to learn about the country’s rich history while having an enjoyable day. Definitely worth it!

The overall experience was excellent. You should know it's all day. Due to the transportation and the stops. Please be prepared. The get from one boat to the next is dangerous. You will need waterproof bags because they will get wet. Overall boat ride and island was great and beautiful.

Half-Day Cultural Safari

Jennifer_G, Apr 2026

The excursion was...

The excursion was excellent. From the moment Chris picked us up at the hotel, he provided information and explained the history of the place. The views along the way were breathtaking. The ranch and horseback riding, the basilica, Higüey, the Dominican aunt's house where we saw the cacao process, and the food—it was a very cultural tour, just as I wanted. The service was excellent. 100% recommended.

Half-Day Buggy Tour to Water Cave and Macao Beach

Laura_E, Dec 2025

Great excursion for a family!

This was a fantastic tour! Gary and Johnny were great guides. They were fun and entertaining, but also kept everyone organized when areas got busy. They made sure to give us a heads up before we’re would encounter an onslaught of crazy merchants and gave us tips on dealing with them!

Adventure Bundle: Monkeyland, Ziplines & Buggies Punta Cana

Eileen_O, Dec 2025

It’s a long day but worth...

It’s a long day but worth it! Our tour guides Sexy Papi and PJ were amazing. Our shuttle driver Cielo was hauling butt to make the travel times are short as possible which we really appreciated. The zip lining was so much fun and beautiful scenery. All the workers made me feel very comfortable (first time zip liner, it’s intimidating! ) the monkeys were so cute and friendly. And last but not least the buggies were a fun way to wrap up the day, luckily the DR hadn’t been getting too much rain so didn’t get muddy! Just be prepared to be away from your resort for up to 12 hours. They had plenty of water but glad we brought extra bottles and snacks.

Series of unfortunate events.

The excursion was great. Luis Miguel. Was our instructor and he was great very knowledgeable nice accommodating. We did have a series of unfortunate events that happened to our excursion out of any of our control. However, Luis Miguel handled it in a super professional manner he should get all the raises and all the kudos.
