The experience

The day starts at the Eco Ranch base camp with a safety briefing and gear check. Once you're suited up and the guide walks you through operating the ATV or buggy, the ride begins. You control the machine through muddy trails, tropical vegetation, and authentic Dominican countryside. The terrain shifts between packed dirt and river crossings, with stops built in for photos and to catch your breath. This is not a guided tour where you sit and watch. You're operating the vehicle the whole way, which is why the experience demands focus and balance but works for riders of any fitness level.

The farm stop breaks up the riding. You'll visit a traditional Dominican house and local plantations to learn what grows here (tobacco, rum, coffee, and cacao), and taste organic products from the land. The cave comes next: Cueva Taína is a natural underground chamber with a crystal-clear freshwater pool where you can swim and cool off after hours in the heat. Then the route heads to Macao Beach, one of the least crowded stretches of sand in the area, where you can walk into the ocean and rest before the ride back to the ranch.

Round-trip transportation from your hotel is included, so you don't arrange the logistics yourself. The guide speaks English, Spanish, Italian, French or another language depending on your option. Helmets and the ATV or buggy are provided. Bring sunscreen and a towel, and wear clothes you don't mind getting muddy.
