Punta Cana Buggy Ride and Taino Park Cenote Cave with Catamaran Snorkeling and Lunch

Ride open-top buggy trails, swim in a private cenote cave, then snorkel from an afternoon catamaran with a sandbar stop and open bar.

Getting started

Begin your day with pickup in an air-conditioned vehicle from your hotel or designated area. After check-in, your driver follows the schedule sent in advance, based on your hotel or pickup details. You then head out of Punta Cana toward private countryside trails where your open-top buggy ride and first activities take place.

What to expect

Open-top buggy trails and Taino cultural show

Your adventure starts on private countryside trails, where you drive or ride in open-top buggies through rural surroundings. Between trail segments, you attend a Taino cultural show that introduces the island's first people.

Features

• Open-top buggy trails take you off the main roads and into private countryside trails, giving you time behind the wheel or in the passenger seat while you feel and see the landscape up close.
• During the Taino cultural show, performers share stories and traditions of the Taino, so you can connect your day out to the island's earliest inhabitants.
• Air-conditioned vehicle transport links this countryside segment with the rest of your itinerary, so travel time between locations stays comfortable.

Private cenote cave

After the buggy portion, you arrive at Punta Cana's largest private cenote cave for a swim. The limestone setting and clear water create a distinct change of pace from the dusty trails.

Features

• You can swim in private cenote cave waters inside Punta Cana's largest private cenote cave, with time to explore the cavern environment at your own pace.
• This stop sits between land and sea activities, so you can cool off, rinse away the trail dust, and reset before lunch and your afternoon on the water.
• Personal flotation devices are available if you want extra support while you swim inside the cave.

Typical Dominican lunch

Following your cenote swim, you sit down to a typical Dominican lunch. This meal bridges the morning's land activities with the later catamaran segment.

Features

• A typical Dominican lunch gives you a taste of local cooking before you head toward the coast for your afternoon on the water.
• Drinks during lunch are not included, so you can choose and purchase your own beverages if you want something specific with your meal.
• After lunch, air-conditioned vehicle transport takes you from the countryside area to the catamaran embarkation point.

Afternoon catamaran ride with snorkeling included

Your afternoon continues on an exclusive double-decker catamaran with a maximum of 27 guests. The route takes you along the coastline with a dedicated stop for snorkeling.

Features

• An afternoon catamaran ride with snorkeling included lets you split your time between relaxing on deck and entering the water at a dedicated reef stop.
• Snorkeling at the pristine Cabo Engaño Natural Reserve puts you over clear water and reef habitat that you can view from the surface.
• Snorkeling guides and personal flotation devices help beginners and less confident swimmers participate comfortably during the Cabo Engaño Natural Reserve stop.

Sandbar stop with paddle boarding and floating bar

The catamaran then anchors at a shallow sandbar where you can move between the water, board activities, and onboard service. This is your chance to enjoy the social side of the cruise.

Features

• At the sandbar stop with paddle boarding and floating bar, shallow water makes it easy to stand, swim, or try paddle boarding without leaving the group area.
• A floating bar operates at the sandbar, so you can access drinks while staying in or near the water instead of returning to the boat each time.
• Relax at a gorgeous sandbar and try paddle boarding, taking advantage of calm conditions to practice balance at your own pace.

Onboard food and open bar

Throughout the catamaran portion, food and drinks are available while you sail, snorkel, and enjoy the sandbar. Service continues until the vessel starts heading back toward shore.

Features

• An open bar offers Presidente local brews, aged spirits, spirits, tequila, margaritas, rum punch, bottled water, and other spirits during the sailing and sandbar segments.
• Nachos, salsa, guacamole, and fresh fruit are served on board, with fresh guacamole subject to season, so you have light snacks between swimming and snorkeling sessions.
• The open bar and snacks are part of your inclusion list, so you can focus on choosing from the bar selection rather than tracking individual drink costs.
