Safari Adventure

Descripción

If YOU want to go home with a more in depth understanding of the Dominican Republic then keep reading because our Country Safari is a crash course in Dominican culture, wrapped up in an unforgettable Full-Day excursion.

Get all your SENSES ready because we're taking you deep into the tropical countryside of the Dominican Republic's eastern most mountain range to:

Hear about locals customs at a traditional Dominican home

See the grounds of a sleepy country plantation bursting with local produce

Savor infamous Dominican cacao (chocolate), in its organic state, and harvested from the surrounding fertile lands

Smell the aroma of rich Caribbean coffee, ground from the finest beans in Punta Cana's Cordillera Oriental Mountain Range

Touch carefully cultivated Dominican tobacco leaves, World-Renowned for their robust flavor and rivaled only by their Cuban counterpart

This is the BEST the Dominican Republic has to offer so don't just touch and smell! Purchase whatever you want to take home and relive the experience!

Sound interesting so far? If so, great! If not, no worries because we're just getting started. Have we mentioned you also??

Visit a local elementary school to better understand the country's public education system

Transverse the 500-year-old city of Higuey, the capital city of the eastern La Altagracia province of the Dominican Republic. Higuey, meaning "Land of the Rising Sun" in Arawak was once controlled by a large Taino Indian kingdom who were eventually decimated by Spanish conquistadors

Enter the Basilica, a Roman Catholic cathedral housing the 500+ year old painting of the Altagracia Virgen brought by Spanish missionaries. The cathedral's importance was solidified with Pope John Paul II's visit in 1992

LUNCH!! Yes, a traditional, home-cooked buffet of rice and beans, meat, salad, plantains, sweets and coffee - enjoyed in rustic country surroundings. The way it should be.

But we're still not done! We've saved the best for last â€¦

Macao Beach is one of the most sought-after coastlines in Punta Cana. Macao's amber sands and azure waters attract beach goers and surfers alike. Only locals know Macao's value as a prime destination for fresh fish and lazy Sunday afternoons with friends.

Now it's time for YOU to enjoy Macao like a local! An hour's time will give you a chance to wade in the Caribbean Ocean, recline on the beach's soft sands or people watch while refreshments are served.

Talk about ending the day on a high note!

There is a short stop at the Basilica in Higuey. To enter, women and men must be covered to the elbows and knees. The tour makes a stop at a local school; sometimes, visitors choose to bring helpful donations. This should never be money, but instead school supplies like pens, pencils, notebooks, backpacks, clothing, etc. There are no children on Saturdays and Sundays or major holidays but the tour still visits the school.

GREAT Time!

“We went with our two kids (ages 14 and 12) and had a great time! All of their staff was very professional and we appreciated their emphasis on safety! Also loved the 1 1/2 hour drive there...had a great guide and driver. We learned quite a bit about the Dominican Republic and their culture.”

Could Not Image Anything Better!

“Upon arrival we were greeted with delicious orange juice and then were taken to an opening to meet our fellow group. After taking a very short boat ride to the floating dock we were immediately greeted by an elated staff to help us off the boat and show us around the dock. You're given the choice to do the activities at your own leisure, we chose to snorkel first, where our guide, Jefferey led us around the dock pointing out fascinating fish and beautiful reefs and shells in the clear turquoise water. We then swam with the sharks and sting rays, and assured by our tour guide that it was perfectly safe who calmed my girlfriend down. We then chose stand up paddle board, shell massage that was incredibly relaxing and individual swim with the sting rays. I did not try the food, but my incredibly picky and allergy stricken girlfriend loved the sandwiches, sweet pineapple, chips and salsa. The pina colada's we sipped while laying on the dock tanning were just as delicious as they were at our resort and we were departed by a toast of their native drink, mama juana. They were just as helpful and friendly getting back on the boat as they were upon our arrival. My girlfriend and I will be making an annual, if not more frequent, trip to the island and this will be at the top of our to do list each trip!”

Scared of Heights, but would do it again!

“I am scared of heights, my husband talked me into going on the zip line, and I have since thanked him for doing so! Everyone there was extremely safety oriented which helped to ease some of my fear. The scenery is beautiful, hint, take a small pocket sized camera with you as you can take pictures in between platforms!! I would love to go back and do it all over again!!”
