Everything was so much fun! It was an early wake up, especially for a vacation day but completely worth it! The views, the experiences, AMAZING!

We went with Road Runners and they operated perfectly. Jesus was our guide and Pina our driver. Bring $ for tipping and on the way there and back, we stopped to use the restroom and shop a little. I read lots of reviews about the horse and wanted state i felt the same at first until I realized that each horse was owned by the handler, not the ranch. Each handler is allowed 1 person, 3 times per week, on their horse(what we we told) Their horse is their everything! You will see when you drive up there and once you get there. Our guides were amazing! They helped with everything. Even holding hands for the little ones while making the long track on the stairs to the waterfall. Horses only get you so far. Make sure to tip! We had an amazingly delicious authentic meal on the ranch. My favorite part was the beach. We brought our own snorkeling gear and saw sooo many HUGE starfish, an eel, lots of colorful fish, and a pretty big crab. We left Punta Cana at 6:45 and got home at 7:30(19:30). If was a fun time.I rarely write reviews, but was compelled to after this horrible excursion in hopes of saving others from going through the same mess.

I rarely write reviews, but was compelled to after this horrible excursion in hopes of saving others from going through the same mess. First, we would told by our mandated butler (TRS Turquesa) to book through excursions through the hotel as they are cheaper than our normal Delta Vacation vendor and the same excursions. Mistake number one. We decided on this excursion and one other. The prices were high and the sales person had a hard time explaining the trips to us, what to wear/bring, and had very limited material (brochures, pamphlets). Also, pretty convinced these are the same people who sell excursions on the beach (which is always a big no). We were picked up at 6:30 in the morning, drove an hour in a bus and stopped on the side of the expressway, where we picked up more people, back to an hour plus of driving. Once we got to the catamaran, we were served what they call a gourmet breakfast, which consisted of a white bread, half slice of ham and cheese, and a sliver of watermelon. Then, crammed us all on a catamaran for a bumpy 45 minute ride. Off the catamaran and onto a “safari” truck for another hour ride to the waterfalls. Get to the waterfalls and there is a sea of horses. Very malnourished looking. You are given a helmet and put on a podium where the locals will decide what horse best suits you/can support you. They throw you on the horse and you make the 30 minute trek down to the waterfall. The local handlers lead the horses through muddy (manure filled), slippery, difficult trails and horses frequently slip/lose footing and many are hit with whips/switches along the way. I am small in size and my horse slipped twice. It was absolutely terrible to watch, especially knowing I was participating in it. When we get to the end of the trail, we dismount and head down a significant amount of stairs to the waterfall. Since we were never told what type of footwear to bring (nor that we would be trailing up and down steps), the trek was extremely slippery in our casual sneakers. We saw many people wearing flip flops and even some who could not make the trek down to the waterfall. Get to the waterfall (which was beautiful), which is full of tons tourists taking their seductive influencer photos. We take a refreshing dip, and back up the trail. Along the trail, my handler asks several times for payment, finally explicitly asking “lady are you going to pay me?” Same goes with my boyfriend’s handler. Get back and off the horses and tip the handlers (and hope some will go to the health of the horse). Then, get brought over to a wash bin where the locals will scrub the manure off your feet and explicitly ask for payment, of course. Back on the safari truck, for and hour, on to our gourmet lunch, buffet that is edible, but not tasty, nor warm. Back onto the catamaran, quick stop at a beach for 45 minutes, which was stunning. Back to the catamaran for the 45 minute trip back. Get back to the buses and onto our bus. Our bus driver goes missing for 40 minutes and leaves us in a packed bus with no air conditioning. Several people got off the bus just to get relief until the bus driver comes back. Then, hour drive to the same spot on the side of the expressway to put people on separate buses. The drivers and guide spoke very little English, so it was difficult for them to communicate which bus each passenger needed to transfer to. Get on the next bus, hour drive to hotel. Get dropped off at hotel at 10:30 at night. So, in short, AVOID AT ALL COSTS.Miguel and Daniel were our guides for the day. They were very personable. The ride was fun and informative.

Miguel and Daniel were our guides for the day. They were very personable. The ride was fun and informative. The waterfall was insanely colorful. The island was picture perfect and more remote compared to other locations. Great trip. Bring lots of cash for tips as there are multiple people who will interact with you through the day.This excursion was excellent. The guide, Miguel, was world class.

This excursion was excellent. The guide, Miguel, was world class. Miguel was full of knowledge teaching us many facts about the Dominican Republic in its totality (like economics, schooling, etc) as well as facts more specific to where we were and what we were doing. Miguel was incredible friendly and often made side conversation with everyone and was always checking in to see if people were having fun. Brian, our driver, was also fantastic and got us from point a to point b safely. It’s a lot of traveling from destination to destination, but it is alleviated by some of the traveling being done via boat and safari truck, which were enjoyable experiences themselves. The ride to El Limón was elating. The locals who guided you were very sweet and accommodating. This experience was so unique, having travelers trek through the jungle on a rocky, muddy terrain on horseback. I would recommend leaving a generous tip for the guides, as they are not paid employees and undergo quite a grueling experience to help make the day so incredible. The buffet lunch was great and was a nice way to interact with fellow tourists and the guides. Bacardi Island was breathtaking. However, I do wish we could have stayed there longed and soaked in the sun; there was only about an hour allocated to spending time on this stunning beach. Upon entering the beach, you are treated to a complimentary piña colada served in a pineapple which was very tasty and added to the full on paradise of this jewel of an island. I would 100 percent recommend this to someone who enjoys adventure tourism type excursions. You’re going to get muddy and tired, but it’s truly a blast!One of the best our tour , its very organised. It is very beautiful and the tour guide was very kind to us
