Punta Cana Jeep Safari Tours — Attraction in Higüey

If you do one thing in the Dominican Republic- make it this! The jeep safari was the highlight of our trip to the Dominican Republic. I did a lot of research before booking because I was looking for a unique experience that took us away from touristy areas. I also wanted to pack in as many activities into one tour so that we wouldn’t have to plan multiple excursions. It truly is a private tour experience with no crowds and overcrowded buses. We can’t stop talking about what a great day we had. We started the day at a beautiful beach with amazing views. The photographer with the tour took photos of us on the beach and accompanied us to take photos throughout the day so we didn’t have to worry about having our cameras out while enjoying all of the amazing experiences. Next we were given a keep to drive and we followed our guide through the hills to a small farm. They gave us harnesses and helmets for zip lining. This was our first time going on a zip line and it was a series of 5 lines around the property. Not too scary but perfect for a first timer and would be fine for children. Next we did horseback riding with horses located on the farm. It was about 20 minutes around the property and crossed the river twice. Again, perfect for first timers and people not accustomed to riding horses. We loved the pace and length. Next ,we got back in the jeep to drive to another property. Seeing the small villages, houses and shops along the way gave us a small glimpse at typical life in the D.R. The next property was a farm owned by Christian. Our tour guides educated us about typical plant species found on the island. We got to eat a fresh star fruit, vinegrillo, and pick fresh cinnamon sticks. Next, we had a typical Dominican meal prepared fresh by the women on the farm. The chicken was especially tasty and all was very filling. Then our guides taught us about the process of making coffee and cocoa. We got to taste cocoa beans fresh off the tree- we had no idea they started out in such large pods and were white and slimy. We saw how the coffee and cocoa beans are roasted and then got to grind them. The best part was tasting the finished product. A truly unique and fantastic experience that will stay with us indefinitely. We got to enjoy the coffee and hot chocolate while taking in the amazing views and getting to pet some pigs. The final stop was a cigar factory were we got to roll our own cigars and take them home as a souvenir. There is a shop on site to purchase cigars, coffee, cocoa and other locally made products. I can’t say enough about how excellent our tour guides were and they made sure to answer all of our questions and make sure we got everything we wanted out of the tour. If you come to the D.R. make sure you book a jeep safari with Just safari. You...

This is tour is by far the most educational,funny, eventful & adventurous tour I have ever taken.

From the minute they pick you up. You drive the Jeep before the tour begins and after it ends they give your money’s worth.

We drove both on and off road. You get to see a typical Dominican village.

We met Christian if you don’t who he is now you will definitely remember him after the tour. He has a beautiful Dominican style home organically engineered. (It is a sight to see)

He has a natural irrigation system he build himself, apart from making Organic coffee and chocolate he makes mamajuana as well.

Mike or Michael is the tour informant he is very kind and teaches you a lot about the agriculture the country has as well as the benefits of each and every plant, fruit or vegetable found on the island. (Maybe not every single one but but you get my drift)

I’m Dominican and I learned a lot about myself and the wealth Dominican Republic has to offer.

But it doesn’t end there! After that went horse back riding and zipped through the sky.

And right after lunch ! (even the food you eat has a story behind it)

And then we went home. The end !

Totally kidding after this we stopped at a cigar making shop and a gift shop ( you get to make your own cigars) and there aren’t any vendors pressuring you to buy)).

Last but not least we stopped a beautiful beach, where we ate again yes again.

The Jeep Tour group is the best tour to date that I have done in Dominican Republic I live here everyone well worth every penny.

It did rain on my tour btw we started with the jeeps completely open and uncovered when it started raining they stopped everyone and they hoped out of there car like a swat team to put the covers back on the Jeep just to make sure we didn’t get wet. ( they got really wet)

The Punta Cana Jeep tour was the highlight of my best friends trip here I’m when he came to visit.

I will be doing it again.

Enjoy...

I booked this tour for my family (husband, teenage daughter, and myself) because of the description and great reviews I read in the blog. In addition to the interesting content, I was also attracted by the fact that the organizers are from my country Serbia (Europe). After all, I can say that I am proud of my compatriots, who designed and perfectly organized this phenomenal adventure, which was very informative, educational, and above all, fun.

It was the most memorable trip and an amazing experience during our stay on the island. We have traveled a lot in the tropics, so we are quite familiar with fruit trees and other characteristic plants. However, we learned so much new information and details from our guides Cheury and Lidija, and host Christian at the farm, that we can say - it was a real class in a beautiful tropical nature. With lots of good mood, humor, laugh, and fun, we learned how to process coffee and cocoa beans, and made and enjoyed the best 100% organic dark chocolate (so delicious). What a unique and precious experience!

Each part of this tour is particularly interesting and has its specific charm, starting from Macao beach, zip line ride, horseback riding, a typical farm, and a very delicious lunch there, to the cigar-making workshop. We had the opportunity to get to know the real life in the rural part of the island and the beautiful nature outside the hotel resorts and tourist places.

The dynamics of the activities and the total duration of the tour are perfectly coordinated. With excellent guides, it's a winning combination and a true recipe for an unforgettable tour.

We immensely enjoyed every moment of that day and thanks to everyone who made it possible for us. You are in good hands and an outstanding experience is guaranteed. We highly...
