8.Buggy Ride, Zipline Splash & Waterfall Pool Combo with Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 47 reviews · 6 hours · from $139

Spend six hours at Bavaro Adventure Park on an off-road buggy circuit, village museum visit, cenote swim, six zip lines, Himalayan Bridge, and Mega Splash landing. Hotel transfers, lunch, equipment, and guides in English, Spanish, or French are included. Guide Carlos has earned praise, though staff assignments vary.

“Transportation was good (we were very close so cannot really speak for others further away). A bit of a wait at the beginning before going on the buggy tour. The buggy tour itself in my opinion wasn’t as exciting as trips I have done in the past. The group was fairly large so maybe that was why. Didn’t really pick up too much speed as a result.

(I believe it’s mainly so you buy the photos in…”

Ride horses along quiet routes at Bávaro Adventure Park, then cool off in the Waterfall Pool and sit down to a Dominican lunch. Multilingual guides speak Spanish, English, and French. Hotel pickup is included, but bring swimwear and closed-toe shoes.

“En soit le cadre est génial, uniquement le temps d’attente avant de partir à l’équitation qui a été de presque 1h (trop long). J’aurai souhaité faire plus de cheval sur différents sentiers. Ensuite la où nous avons été surpris est le prix à l’intérieur du parc (16€ pour avoir une photo du photographe, 6€ un petit magnum.. ) mais le personnel top !”
