Depending on the hotel where you are staying we will pick you up around 8:10 a.m. to start our jeep tour into the Dominican jungle.

We will first visit a children's school to learn how and in what conditions Dominican children study in rural areas. After this beautiful experience, we will head towards the sugar cane, coffee and cocoa plantations. Here you will learn about the economic importance of this sector in the Dominican Republic, as they are the most extensive crops in the country.

From the rural areas we continue our route to the urban areas, heading to the city of Higüey to visit the cathedral of Nuestra Señora de Altagracia, completed in 1971.

Once the visit to the basilica is over, we will take you to Rancho Valencia to get to know the real handicrafts of this region. In addition, you can take a horseback ride through the ranch to learn about all the activities that take place there. This is the best place if you want to buy a souvenir of this excursion, be it rum, cigars, coffee or much more.

Here you will also learn how coconut oil and coconut milk are produced, as this ranch has a large extension of palm groves. To end our visit to the ranch in the best way, nothing better than a pleasant swim in the Anamuya River.

Finally, and in case you still feel like taking a dip, we will go to the wild Macao Beach or the Yonu River, depending on the weather. Both are great places for sightseeing, but we are sure that either one will amaze you.
