An unforgettable experience in Samaná The tour to El Limón Waterfall was beyond breathtakingriding through lush landscapes to reach the stunning cascade felt like a true adventure. The hike was exhilarating, and the waterfall itself was magical. Then, exploring the pristine beauty of Cayo Levantado was pure paradise: turquoise waters, white sands, and incredible views. This tour perfectly blends nature, adventure, and relaxation. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the Dominican Republic

It's a full day, but it's worth it. Thomas was the guide in Samana, we begun with a coffee and snacks, then the catamaran to Samana, the open bus to the waterfall, if you don't want to ride, a guide will come with you on foot, El Limon is breathtaking, and very, very wet, after the return the bus took us to lunch, and again the catamaran to a beautiful beach where we stayed for an hour. Quite tiresome, but amazing.

A path to the waterfall that seems like something out of a fairy tale. The guys who accompanied us along the way were very kind. As for the lunch they prepared for us, it was spectacular, everything was delicious. They also have a little shop where you can take home a souvenir. Everything was great. We loved it.

Perfect for nature lovers, adventurers, and those seeking tranquility, Samaná promises an experience like no other. very Nice

Without a doubt, an unforgettable experience, I would repeat it and I recommend it.
