Trek through the mountains and forests, exploring waterfalls and enjoying the natural beauty of the trail through the landscapes of Bávaro. There are horses for novice or experienced rider, a great way to explore and experience some fantastic views of the island.
If you are really looking to experience the heart of the Dominican then take a safari and explore the cacao and coffee plantations.

Want to explore more of Punta Cana but you do not want to explore the height or at the speed of the other experiences, you can go take Buggy ride into the jungle. Experience the tours of Bavaro, at full speed as you zip through a coffee plantation, take trips across the rivers as you manoeuvre the buggy across the rugged terrain, this is still a thrill but possibly more suited to all the family and those who like to be a little more closer to the ground.
