The Samaná excursion from Punta Cana is a full day of adventure and beach in one of the most beautiful places in the Dominican Republic. You leave your hotel on an air-conditioned bus with a certified guide to Las Cañitas, where you board a luxury catamaran with unlimited drinks on board to cross Samaná Bay. In Samaná, a safari truck takes you to the top of the mountain, and from there you ride a horse for about 30 minutes through rainforest, coffee and cocoa plants and fruit trees to our ranch near El Limón. There you'll find El Limón waterfall, about 50 meters (165 feet) high in the heart of the peninsula, and a delicious buffet lunch. To finish, the catamaran takes you to Cayo Levantado, the famous Bacardi Island, a white-sand island with turquoise water where you have free time to swim and explore.
We pick up all our guests in the Bávaro / Punta Cana hotel zone.
