Full Description ?️
Your adventure begins with convenient round-trip hotel transportation from your Punta Cana accommodation. Upon arrival at the ranch, receive a safety briefing before jumping into your automatic buggy. You will immediately set off on the back roads, tearing through dense plantations and remote farmland, navigating trails that are sure to get you covered in mud and dust! Next, travel cross-country to a secluded cenote cave, a natural sinkhole with pristine freshwater. Descend into this magical spot and enjoy a well-deserved, cooling dip in the clear pool. Following your swim, you’ll visit a traditional Dominican ranch where you can learn about the history and production of local staples like cocoa, coffee, sugarcane, and the famous Mamajuana. You will have the opportunity to sample these products firsthand. Finally, the journey concludes with a stop at the picturesque Macao Beach, known for its golden sands and excellent waves, allowing you time to relax and swim before heading back to the ranch for transfer to your hotel.
