Full Description
Join us early morning from your hotel in Puerto Plata and journey north to the town of Imbert, home of the famous Damajagua Waterfalls. After a short walk through lush jungle, you’ll reach the waterfalls — here you can climb, slide or jump your way through crystal-clear rock-pools and cascading falls. Protective gear like life jackets and helmets are provided for your safety.
After the water adventure, you’ll enjoy a typical Dominican buffet lunch with views of the mountains. Then your guide will introduce you to rural life: visit a plantation where coffee is roasted over open fire, experience cocoa bean processing, and watch cigars handcrafted locally. At day's end you’ll be returned to your hotel in Puerto Plata with memories (and photos) of a day well spent.
