★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 10,715 reviews Our pick

Spend a full day in the Anamuya mountains with 12 ACCT-certified zip lines, a muddy buggy ride and river swim, Dominican lunch, coconut and cacao tastings, and a 45-minute visit with squirrel monkeys. Guides such as Sammy, Angel, and PJ add local stories and humor.

“We had a wonderful day with Sammy and Samuel. The drive out into the e countryside was beautiful (after you leave the busier areas) and everyone involved with the tour was so helpful. We were worried that zip lining would take forever as we had a huge group but they were so fast! The monkeys were a highlight and lunch at Maria’s was tasty and a unique experience. We finished with the buggies and my husband had a blast driving ours. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone (but bring lots of tip money as there were tip jars everywhere).”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 2,587 reviews · from $54

“Fun exploration. The ‘farm’ was the only disappointment, it’s a little shop not like visiting a farm or plantation for the authentic feel. The cave you literally jump in the. Have to get out, no time in the water to explore. It was also very crowded and someone fell on top of one of our group members hurting his neck. The staff was fantastic, communication was good, buggies were fun and we loved the beach stop.”

Ziplining was great, a few flights of stairs to climb but it was beautiful scenery. Only negative was that we had to wait over an hour to come home because another group wasn’t finished with their excursion.”

You have alot stops were you'll feel you pressured to buy products from every stop. 2. There were alot of kids with flowers and bottles of water begging for money. 3. The van that picked us up broke down in the middle of the highway. 4.The tour operators were ghetto the music and the drinking showing off for the patrons on the tour. 5. The operators pressure you to leave good reviews and mention their names and watch over you while you do it.”

“Pick up was easy, communication as well. Crew was good, gave us some tips and tricks. Driving a buggy was fun, lots of mud so prepare yourself with glasses and mouth cover. Traditional Dominican house does not exist, or does if its sales outside covered space, they show you beans of coffee, cocoa and leafs of tobacco. You can see how they roll cigars. No show of how to grind beans, just tools. Took 4 minutes max and then they are presenting products, to taste and see and to buy. Point is to take you there and spend money. This is really disappointing since we been in Egypt, Tunisia, Marakesh…”
