About this experience
Your friendly and professional guide will collect you from your Punta Cana hotel and transport you to your dune buggy. Upon arrival you’ll receive a safety and rules briefing before taking off on the trip of a lifetime! These speedy vehicles, complete with stick-shift transmission and VW engines, have unmatched agility. Choose from a four-person buggy with other travelers or steering solo as you make your way through the stunning and diverse landscapes of Dominican Republic. Pass colorful Caribbean houses on route to sample real Dominican coffee. Then follow along the natural paths lined with palm trees and banana plantations towards an authentic limestone mine. You’ll return using a paved road through La Ceiba and Macao, where you’ll visit a local colmado (grocery store) and interact with residents while you sip on cold drinks and enjoy savory snacks. This trip includes an epic stretch of white sand near Macao Beach. There’s even time to take a dip before returning to Punta Cana.
