Pick-up is included from most hotels and resorts in the Bávaro–Punta Cana area. For the Cap Cana area, you must request an access pass so we can enter the property.

In most hotels, pick-ups are done at the Security Gate unless you request and obtain a special access pass for us to reach the Lobby. Pick-ups start within a 1 - 2 hour window before the tour begins. Please be ready at the confirmed location 5 minutes before your scheduled pick-up time. Our driver will take a photo of the Lobby or Gate upon arrival.

Very good experience, very good guide
Good experience. The tour was very good, and Macao Beach is beautiful. The cenote was not very pleasant. Too many people, it did not feel safe to jump in. I have visited other cenotes, and they are safer than this one. Overall, a good tour.
Very Unorganized! Waited soo long just to ride . The dune buggies need to be replaced as well safety hazard
Thank you for your feedback. We would like to clarify that we are currently in Holy Week (Semana Santa), one of the busiest times of the year. As one of the only ranches operating to fulfill all pre-booked reservations during this holiday, the flow of people is much higher than usual, which can affect wait times.Regarding our equipment, please rest assured that safety is our top priority. Our buggies are heavy-duty vehicles maintained daily to endure extreme conditions of mud, rocks, and water. They are built for this rugged terrain, not for luxury, and they are fully capable of completing the adventure safely.
I was a little nervous about this excursion based on some of the reviews, but we had a great time! It was well organized, and the staff was very accommodating. My teens wanted their own buggy’s and we were able to purchase 2 more at $25 each. The staff was very friendly and safety was their top priority. Definitely recommend!
Thank you so much for your review! We are thrilled to hear that you and your family had a great time and that we could help your teens get their own buggies for the extra adrenaline they wanted.We know some reviews can be tricky, but as you experienced, organization and safety are our top priorities. We love that our staff made you feel comfortable and accommodated. Our goal is always to provide a fun, seamless adventure for everyone.Thanks for trusting us and for recommending the experience to other families!"
We were picked up at 11am for a tour that was supposed to start at 11:30am. We did not get to the tour location until 12:45pm. Then the “tasting” was just them trying to sell products to us. The whole tour was a lot of just waiting in the buggies, then waiting at each location. Very much a tourist trap to get you to buy more things from them.
Hello, thank you for your feedback. Before addressing your points, I want to clarify that I could report this review for several inaccuracies, but I prefer to respond directly to set the record straight.First and foremost, we do not sell anything. Any vendors you encountered at the stops are completely independent and have nothing to do with our ranch. We do not earn a single cent from their sales, nor do we care if you buy from them or not. Our only business is providing the tour experience.Regarding the timing: there was no delay. This is a shared route with a scheduled pickup at 11:00 AM for the midday session. Arriving at the ranch at 12:45 PM is the standard process for coordinating multiple hotel pickups before the engines start.Additionally, we are currently in Holy Week (Semana Santa), one of the busiest times of the year. We were one of the only ranches operating to fulfill reservations for our clients. While there were more people than usual, if you look at other reviews from the exact same day, you will see families who had a fantastic time.We are sorry you didn't enjoy the pace, but we remain committed to delivering the adventure we promised to everyone who booked with us."
There was a lot of waiting and a lot of riding the buggies (obviously fun!) but we only spent 15 minutes at the cave and 15 minutes at the beach because we were running late. It was enough time to take a quick dip and then we were off. I was a little disappointed the beach visit was so short since before the tour I saw such nice photos of couples on the beach with iguanas and macaws. We didn't do any of that or get to experience it because we were running behind. Even though we were there on time. We also noticed that some of the other doors had much nicer buggies.
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad you enjoyed the buggy ride, which is the heart of our adventure! Regarding the time at the stops, we always aim to balance the route, but sometimes factors like group pace or traffic can affect the timing. We want to clarify that the iguanas and macaws are not part of our tour; those are independent local vendors at the beach and their presence is external to our company. As for the buggies, we focus on having reliable, high-performance engines to tackle the mud and terrain safely, rather than just aesthetics. We appreciate your punctuality and will use your comments to keep improving our logistics. We hope to have you back for an even smoother ride next time!

Muchísimas gracias por tu comentario! Nos alegra enormemente saber que tuviste una experiencia de diez y que confiaste plenamente en nuestro equipo; para nosotros, la seguridad y la honestidad de nuestros trabajadores es lo más importante. Le pasaremos tus palabras a Julián y a los muchachos de las fotos. Queremos aprovechar para aclarar a todos nuestros futuros clientes que, aunque los fotógrafos son excelentes profesionales ('duros'), ellos trabajan de forma independiente. Nosotros no vendemos las fotos ni obtenemos ganancias de ellas; nuestra prioridad es y siempre será tu aventura y confianza en el tour. ¡Te esperamos de vuelta pronto!"

Muchísimas gracias por tus palabras! Nos llena de orgullo saber que disfrutaste de los mejores buggies y que nuestra atención estuvo a la altura de lo que esperabas. Trabajamos duro para que cada aventura sea de primer nivel. ¡Esperamos verte pronto de nuevo para otra vuelta con nosotros!"
Excellent time on the buggies! Warning though do not purchase the margaritas on the beach...Regular margaritas was 35.00 each! Yes we should have asked first :/
Thank you for the review! We’re so glad you had an excellent time on the buggies. Regarding your experience at the beach, we want to clarify that we do not sell drinks or food, nor do we have any connection with the bars or vendors there. They are independent businesses, and unfortunately, their prices are completely out of our control. We always recommend our guests to check prices beforehand to avoid these situations. Our goal is strictly to provide the best buggy adventure, and we’re happy you enjoyed that part of the trip!"
