Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Pass By: Punta Cana, Punta Cana, La Altagracia Province, Dominican Republic
After pickup from your Punta Cana hotel you will leave the city and travel towards Higuey, the largest city in the Dominican Republic’s eastern region. The excursion makes a stop at a local school where the safari team sponsors a community project that benefits several villages with basic education.
Leaving Higuey, you will take a turn towards the Cordillera Oriental Mountain Range, averaging some 900 feet above sea level, before heading deep into the Dominican countryside. The safari truck then passes by two rural ranches where you’ll learn about and taste several genuine Dominican products: cocoa, coffee, tobacco, and mamajuana (widely considered a natural aphrodisiac).
