Incredible Experience — But Be Ready to Climb! 😂
That’s a great detail because it shows how much fun it was across a pretty big age range. I’d add it while still making the physical-demand warning clear:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Experience — Definitely Know What You’re Signing Up For!Overall, we had an absolutely fantastic time on this waterfall tour! From our driver to our tour guides, everyone was wonderful, friendly and helpful. The waterfalls were beautiful, the experience was thrilling, and our entire family had so much fun. Our group included family members ranging from 9 years old all the way up to 50, and everyone enjoyed it! The lunch afterward was also great.A few things I think are important for future guests to know:The meeting point does require a bit of a walk outside of the port/security gate to meet your driver. They were able to drop us off closer when we returned, which was appreciated, but if you’re expecting to be picked up directly inside the cruise port, that is not how this particular tour works.Also, this is definitely a physically demanding excursion. There are lots of rocks, uneven terrain, narrow steps and A LOT of climbing. I believe we were told there were more than 3,000 steps throughout the experience. If you have difficulty walking, climbing stairs, navigating uneven surfaces or have mobility concerns, I would probably choose a different excursion. I’m glad I did it, but my legs definitely knew I did it afterward! 😂My one real suggestion would be to have smaller groups going through the waterfalls at one time. At the bottom of the first slide, there were so many people in the water that it became very crowded. You can’t touch the bottom in that area, although you are wearing a life jacket, and with everyone trying to swim, move and get to the steps at the same time, there was quite a bit of pushing and bumping. I’m a little claustrophobic, so I found that part uncomfortable, but even members of my family who aren’t claustrophobic thought it was a lot. I think smaller groups, or allowing a little more time between groups going down, would make an already great experience even better.That being said, we had an amazing day. Our guides were fantastic, the scenery was incredible, lunch was delicious, and seeing everyone from the youngest at 9 to the oldest at 50 having such a great time made it even more memorable.It was definitely a FULL day, definitely an adventure, and something I’m really glad we experienced while visiting the Dominican Republic! 🇩🇴❤️🌴
