Ready for an exciting off-road journey to explore the real Dominican Republic?!? Then be sure to sign up for the fantastic Macao Buggies Tour, an adventure that is sure to be a highlight of your vacation!

Travel through the remote farmland of northern Punta Cana, where you will enjoy the beautiful landscape of palm trees, tobacco plantations and the Oriental Mountain Range. These narrow and isolated country roads provide the perfect opportunity to get a little wild! Hold on tight as your buggy bounces through deep pools of mud… it could get a little messy!!

Taste the Local Produce

The first stop is at a quaint country ranch where you will be introduced to local produce such as cocoa, coffee, tobacco and green tea leaves, as well as Mamajuana, a Dominican aphrodisiac elixir. You then bounce back into action as you journey to the next stop, a beautiful cave formation. The best part of all is that this cave features a deep natural swimming pool that is just perfect for cooling off!

Exclusive Access to Macao Beach

After visiting the hidden countryside cave (shhh – keep it a secret!), you’ll bounce over to the shores of the stunning Macao Beach. This amazing coastal stretch is one of the few remaining sections of Punta Cana that has not yet been developed with resorts. You will have time to enjoy the gorgeous palm trees and crystal blue waters of this spectacular Caribbean Beach before your adventure ends.

Come along for the experience of a lifetime on the Macao Buggy Adventure!

Vendors frequent the cave and Macao Beach, hoping to sell their goods to tourists. Although the vendors can be pushy at times, they will ease up if they know you aren’t interested. If the thought of dealing with bold salespeople bothers you, try the Side by Side Adventures instead, which travels a less populated route.

– Drivers must be at least 21 years old.

– While there is no age limit for passengers, kids must be able to seat on their own and wear a seat belt.

– For safety reasons pregnant women cannot participate in this excursion.

– Because buggies can be finicky on Macao’s rugged terrain, a trained service technician will follow your buggy at all times. Mechanics are trained for all sorts of repairs and will keep your buggy running like a champ.

– You need to present a paper voucher for this excursion.

– The described order of activities may change based on weather, group size, holidays, etc.

Helpful tips
– Wear clothes and shoes you don’t mind getting mud on. You WILL get muddy!
– Wear quick drying clothes, that way you can go into the beach with your clothes on and clean off some of the mud.
– Wear flip flops or easy to wash/dry shoes (e.g. crocs, water shoes).
– Bring sunglasses to protect your eyes from the dust while driving. A bandana or old shirt is also a good idea to cover your nose and mouth.

Many people wait until arriving in DR to book their excursions so long lines form in the hotel lobby to speak to the representatives of each excursion.

[featured_box title=”Avoid pushy vendors” pos=”left” img=”https://iheartdr.com/images/check-mono-64×64.png” img_width=”32px” link=””]

Many tour providers employ the same vendors and since they work on commission they’ll try to push the excursions that give them the highest commission.
