? Full Description Your high-octane adventure begins with a pickup from your hotel in the Punta Cana/Bávaro area. Upon reaching the ranch, you will receive a full safety briefing and orientation before hopping into your automatic double buggy. Start your engine and set off on the "Extreme Buggy Route," traversing the stunning Dominican countryside. The route will take you along private, rugged trails, providing a thrilling off-road experience that truly tests the limits of the buggies and guarantees mud and dust! The first stop is a Traditional Dominican House, where a local guide will introduce you to the process of growing and preparing coffee and cocoa, often with a tasting. Next, you will follow the trails to the Taíno Cenote, a natural sinkhole within a cave. Here, you can plunge into the cool, clear freshwater, an unparalleled and unique experience. The final stretch of the drive takes you to the iconic Macao Beach, one of the last undeveloped stretches of coastline in the area. You'll have time to wash off the dirt and mud with a refreshing swim in the ocean or simply soak up the tropical atmosphere before the transport takes you back to your hotel.
