What to expect

  1. El Salto del Limon
    4h · Admission ticket included
    This destination, also recognized as a Global Ecotourism Paradise, is home to the breathtaking migration of humpback whales, observable from January to early April when over 3,500 of these majestic creatures visit its warm waters. I recommend booking the whale watching option when it is available during this period.

    Your adventure begins with a scenic boat ride from Sabana de la Mar to Samaná Bay. Upon arrival, you'll embark on an exciting horseback ride to the majestic Limón Waterfall. Standing 50 meters tall, this waterfall features a natural pool surrounded by lush tropical rainforest, perfect for a refreshing dip.
  2. Samana Province
    2h
    Next, you'll board a safari truck for a tour of the historic city of Samaná, discovered by Christopher Columbus in 1493. During the tour, you'll learn about its rich history and the first encounter between Europeans and natives.
  3. Cayo Levantado
    2h
    After the city tour, you’ll enjoy a Dominican buffet at a countryside restaurant, featuring a variety of local dishes and fresh tropical fruits. Then, you'll head to Cayo Levantado, also known as "Bacardi Island," where you'll have free time to relax on its white sandy beaches and turquoise waters.
  4. Punta Cana
    2h
    Finally, you'll return to the mainland and be transferred back to your accommodation, carrying with you unforgettable memories of a day filled with nature, history, and relaxation in one of the most beautiful corners of the Caribbean.
