Great Sunset horseback riding tour!! Our driver Juan is the best in punta cana I been here 10 times an I never meet one like him really professional speak very good English I really recommend this company an Juan as your personal driver if you looking to explore puntacana city!!!!

Feeling that you are going with well known friends or company. So easy, friendly, funny guys. attractions are well organized too. The best tour in Punta cana!

This was the highlight of our trip to Punta Cana. You get to see the real DR, in all of its beauty. The tour guides are so warm and friendly. They make you feel safe and they are really focused on making your experience fun. Our favorite part was the coffee and chocolate farm and the fish lunch was delicious. Highly recommended!

This was an awesome day tour if you like adventure. The day starts early, we were picked up from our hotel at 6:15am and joined two other groups on the bus then were transferred to another bus with the rest of our larger group from other areas. (this happens for almost all tours in Punta Cana because there are a lot of hotel/resorts and they are very spread out, so it actually saves time instead of riding on the bus for hours to everyone's hotel as there were about 25+ people in our group). The bus ride is a few hours to the coast where they take you on a boat to the Samaná peninsula, not to worry there is bathroom break about halfway! Then the boat is ride is about an hour, it can be choppy so if you get sea-sick take medicine before. Then once you reach Samaná you take a truck ride to the area where you have lunch and the horses are kept. You get matched up with a horse keeper and they guide you through the path to the waterfall Salto del Limón, it's about a 20-30 minute journey on horseback each way. Once you reach near the waterfall you do some walking which is about 10-20 minutes before you reach the waterfall. The walking is a sweat and a decent workout as its uphill and downhill (do not recommend if you don't want do any walking), we did this for my Dad's 66th birthday and he enjoyed it very much but he's also very fit and grew up on an island. So if you're not interested in getting a little dirty, walking, and sweating I do not recommend this tour for you. Then you spend about an hour at the waterfall and then walk back to your horse and ride back to lunch. Lunch is a typical buffet like you see on all the tours, the food was good and you can eat as much as you want. Then you take the boat to Cayo Levantado which is a beautiful island off the coast and hangout there for about two hours they also provide everyone with a pina colada in a pineapple with or without rum! After spending time at the beach you make your journey home the same way it started, boat, bus, hotel bus transfer. We're back to our hotel by 7:20pm. Overall the day and trip was beautiful and so much fun! We made so many friends and memories. Rafael was our tour guide and he was awesome! Great tour with friendly tour people and locals. Highly recommend this tour!

This was the best tour we had in Domenican Republic. A lot of activities and sites included. Very good cultural tour from Punta Cana. Danilo and Robinson are really are the best! They are passionate about the country and will share interesting facts. Fun and enjoyable expirience. The tour is almost full day tour. Guides do not rush you and gives time to enjoy each place.

Booked this excursion and ended up being the only one. Felt very safe as a female solo traveller. Very informative guide - explained details of the towns we cycled through and the flora at the plantation. Beautiful family opens their home and property to visitors at the plantation stop - opportunity to buy coffee and vanilla at very reasonable prices. Must do excursion! Best part of my trip to Punta Cana.

We loved the group of people on our trip. Our tour guide David was excellent. We were thirsty and he jumped off the shuttle to purchase bottled water for everyone. The long ride might have been better if cold water was available when we got on the shuttle. Upgrade the vehicle to a mini-tour bus which for a drive from Punta Cana to Santo Domingo to avoid a packed shuttle for 2 hour 48 mins. The landmarks, museum visits, buffet lunch, and the service were otherwise excellent. The driver was on a mission to get us all back to our resorts before sundown which was tremendously appreciated. We were able to freshen up in time for dinner. All in all, it was worth the money to visit such a monumentally historical city. Happy travels, Everyone!

If you are looking for a hike close to Punta Cana, this is it. It was absolutely gorgeous to see the inland beauty of the Dominican Republic. You walk along a 5 kilometer country farm path past plantation fields and hills. The guide was very knowledgeable about the trees and plants we encountered. There were 5 of us aged 34-68 and the hike was no problem.

The experience was amazing and probably a once in a life time to see the Whales. No stop was rushed. Lunch was nice. CAUTIONS/ Advice: This trip from start to finish from our Punta Cana hotel was 15 hours! Breakfast/Snack was coffee (perhaps there was more stuff before we arrived but we weren’t the last. Your pick-up van is not your coach for the day. You go to a coach point and are split into groups for the day. This excursion is for the masses and you will be crammed into boats, safari trucks and coaches. Toilets - take loo roll, toilet tissues, wipes/ sanitiser. Think festival toilets with 10,000 people going in the one place before you. Take extra water and snacks for the long day, don’t forget suncream. I would not take my children on this trip it was too long and too much and they range between 9-15 The guides at the horses are unpaid. Whatever they are ‘tipped’ is what they earn for the day. Long socks for the horse riding - boots can be borrowed for Free but they only go up to size UK 10. Sick bags/ motion sickness tablets. Most people felt ill on the boat.

This was an amazing excursion! By far our favorite and we did a few! The employees, captain, and guides were so kind, personable and entertaining. The wind was pretty strong which made for murky water but we still got to see plenty of fish and the coral nurseries! Our stop for fresh cut coconuts was so refreshing and the seafood was superb. I would highly recommend this for anyone visiting Punta Cana. I cannot say enough great things about this company and excursion!

The tour was amazing but I would not recommend it for small children. It was a very long day from Punta Cana resorts. We stopped at a few interesting places had lunch and then lastly went to Columbus park. The lunch was a buffet style that had standard Dominican food but there was something for everyone. On the way back to the resorts we stopped at a small chocolate factory and had some samples. It was a beautiful day with a couple of short bursts of rainfalls which is typical for the region. Our tour guide spoke Spanish, English and German for our group which was a bit confusing but we understood most of it. Everyone was kind and friendly. I was worried about safety in the capital but we never felt unsafe at all. The vendors approached with their jewelry, souvenirs and paintings but we're respectful when we declined.

My wife and I booked this excursion not knowing what to expect since neither of us had ever been horseback riding before. But we absolutely loved the experience. The trail we rode allowed us to appreciate all the beauty of Macao Beach and also took us through some of the local roads which were very remote but fun to ride. The horses were great and very easy to ride as well. The sunset in the background made it even more special. The tour guides and photographer spoke only a little English but were able to converse well enough with us to give instructions and were very welcoming and professional. Lastly, our driver, Mario, was the best! He picked us up from our hotel and gave us some great insight into what it was like to live in Punta Cana and the surrounding areas. He spoke great English and was very friendly and accommodating. Overall we highly recommend Mario and this excursion. Very scenic.

Wow. I have no words for the experience that our family had at Flintstones Buggy. I tried to book online on Viator but it only allowed my to choose 2 people which means we would have to book 6 separate reservations. I called Viator and they were able to set me up food. The night before the excursion I received a text from victor from Flintstone and his customer service was phenomenal. I had some issues with the pick up time since our family had to take Covid test starting at 9 and he was so flexible and didn’t give us a hard time. He made sure we were accommodated and was not stressed out before our tour. We were picked up my the transfer company, took about 35 minutes from our hotel Finest Punta Cana. Once we got their the guides and workers were so welcoming. Ronald was our tour guide and he was sooo much fun. This dude is super talented , speaks multiple languages which was good because some other people we had the same time slot as us spoke Spanish and he was able to do the tour in English and Spanish quickly. He was engaging and made sure we were safe. Of course I didn’t want to get dirty 🤣, which isn’t realistic especially when you have go hard friends whose only goal is to splash you with whatever mud is on the floor. The stop at the local Dominican market was intriguing and the coffee was as great(says my boyfriend, I don’t do coffee). So much so that when we had breakfast at the hotel today he complained about the coffee and wished he could go back to the market for coffee. The cave was super cool , interesting and enjoyable. The company is soo creative (can’t tell you much cause I don’t want to ruin it ). The ride back was fast even with a free breakdowns of the buggies . We had a mechanic with us the whole time so we felt safe. Towards the end of the tour my buggy stopped working and within minutes they had someone come and an additional buggy for use. The transfer that picked us to bring us back was a truck fit for our dirty and muddy bodies. The 10:15 tour got us back to the hotel by 2:15. All in all my only recommendation is for the company to pay more attention to the upkeep of the buggies. Oh . If you don’t have bandanas they sell them their and i brought the glasses . So glad i did because those rocks and dust would have ruined my personal shades.

Great experience. Beautiful well trained horses and great staff. The guides were very attentive and friendly. We even got to see some live crabs from the ocean. So much fun. A must do in punta cana

Very good tour, Carlos was amazing and it’s definitely a must do in punta cana. We drove singles in buggies, had some stops along the way to see the natives and buy stuff and drink

Leo was our tour guide and he did a fantastic job of giving us the necessary historical information about Santo Domingo. He translated both in English and Spanish effortlessly. He ensured everyone was safe and having a good time. I strongly recommend this activity even though the travel time between Punta Cana to the capital was long.

This was the most fun and rewarding experience I had during my stay in Punta Cana. Patricio and Roberto were excellent, and I highly recommend adding the zip lining. It was a very personalized tour, and I enjoyed this little diversion from beach activities. The countryside and mountain areas were beautiful, and the guides were exceptional.

Nice ride from Punta Cana airport to our resort in LaRomona. Got to see some of the culture here. The driver was excellent.

I reserved transportation RT from the Punta Cana airport to our resort. The ride was fast, comfortable, and I’m so glad they got me an English speaking driver! I will definitely use this service next time. Our driver came with a sign showing my husband’s name. Easy to locate.

This was SO FUN! The tour guide and entire staff was so helpful and patient. I saw several people zip-lining off the highways while driving to Punta Cana but this tour takes you up the mountain so you get to see spectacular views you won't see any other way. First time zipling and would 100% go again!
