The staff were great, informative, funny and couldn’t do enough for us. The experience its self was brilliant, it was amazing snorkelling, seeing all of the fish and sea creatures as well as getting to contribute to a coral reef. Lunch was also great, being served to us on our boat and the open bar and rum and coconut drink was a plus.

Punta Cana Buggy-tur på kvällen med dominikansk middag

Punta Cana Buggy-tur på kvällen med dominikansk middag

Den här upplevelsen är full av äventyr. Terrängkörning med buggy eller safaritruck, traditionella Taino-ceremonier och bad i underjordiska pooler ger en adrenalinpumpande kväll från Punta Cana. Juan, en av våra lokalguider, säger: ”Grottor och cenoter spelade en viktig roll i den inhemska Taino-kulturen. Trots att de ser så frestande ut med sitt svala akvamarinblå vatten badade Taino-folket aldrig i cenoterna eller använde vattnet eftersom de trodde att de var en port till underjorden. Dessutom får du njuta av en dominikansk middag och en öppen bar som följs av livemusik.För att starta din actionfyllda kväll kommer du att köra genom den dominikanska landsbygden, zooma längs grusvägar och se hur landskapet förvandlas från dag till natt. Guidad av facklor fortsätter du resan för att ta ett dopp i en naturlig grottpool, en så kallad cenote, med stämningsfull belysning. Och om du väljer alternativet med safaritruck får du också besöka Yara-grottans kusliga djup.Med flammande facklor som lyser upp vägen tar du dig tillbaka till basen för en välförtjänt drink och en god middag med lokala rätter. Restaurangpersonalen är stolta över att skapa klassiska dominikanska rätter, nylagade med säsongens råvaror från ön. Kvällen avrundas med en traditionell Taino-dansshow och möjlighet att delta i en boogie eller njuta av den öppna baren under stjärnorna.

You'll cruise the shoreline of the Cotubanama National Park while your local guide points out the island wildlife. See the rocks of El Peñón, and then glide through the Catuano channel.
