Sugar cane plantations, tobacco, tropical fruits, and one of the most colorful markets in the Dominican Republic await on a safari of Higüey and the sugar cane fields. Let's go!

Safari Details

At the designated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel. We'll hop on a safari truck and head to the city of Higüey, which will take around 40 minutes.

Once we've arrived, we'll start exploring the traditional market of this town for 45 minutes, strolling around fruit, vegetable, and meat stalls. After this, we'll visit a cigar factory to learn how this product is made.

Next, we'll continue our safari through the sugar cane plantations of Bayahibe, discussing the different uses of this plant and observing the nearby settlements. We will discover the development of the trapiche system, which transforms sugar cane into Dominican rum.

We'll then venture into the Dominican jungle and visit a typical ranch for lunch beside the river, which includes cocoa, manioc, tropical fruits, and Dominican salami. A drink is included, with options of soft drink, rum, or water.

Before returning to La Romana, we'll take a boat ride along the river and you can also enjoy a refreshing dip.

Our day trip concludes with drop-off at your hotel after a total of 8.5 hours.
