The experience

If you're docked in Puerto Plata or staying nearby with a free morning, this combines three separate activities into one outing so you don't have to choose. You start with eight ACCT-certified ziplines that run across the countryside: the operator calls it the bird's perspective. Then you drive your own ATV off-road through a riverbed and past local villages, seeing how people live there. The day ends with a horseback ride through gardens where guides point out tropical plants, a swim in the property pool, and a pool zipline if you want one more run.

Pickup starts at 8am from Puerto Plata hotels or, if you're staying in Sosua or Cabarete, a 6:45am departure on Tuesday and Friday. A professional guide travels with your group and speaks English, Spanish, French or German. You get safety equipment for the ziplines, a refillable water bottle, and a home-cooked Dominican lunch (rice, beans, chicken, fried plantains, vegetables and salad) worth $15 on its own. The whole thing takes six hours, so you're back by early afternoon if you're catching an evening ship.

Weight limits apply: 118kg (260 lbs) for ziplining and horseback riding, 160kg (350 lbs) total on an ATV for one or two riders. You need to be 18 with a valid driver's license to operate an ATV yourself. Kids under 18 ride as passengers. The activity isn't recommended if you have spinal injuries, are pregnant, have cardiovascular concerns or walking disabilities. Children from age 3 are welcome, though they'll ride as passengers on the ATV and may need help on the horse.
