Traveler reviews
The experience
You drive the buggy yourself through muddy paths and jungle roads, not watching from a passenger seat. The route takes you into the Dominican countryside and past authentic local culture. Your first stop is a traditional house where you learn how coffee, chocolate and cacao are produced locally. From there the trail continues deeper into the landscape toward a natural cave with crystal-clear water where you can swim inside the underground cenote before the final push to Macao Beach.
Macao Beach sits on the northeastern coast and is one of the most natural beaches in the region, with ocean views and room to rest after driving. The whole loop (countryside, cave, beach, back through the trails) takes four hours. Hotel pickup means you don't need to arrange transport to the starting point. You're picked up and dropped back at your accommodation.
