Excellent excursion, loved by the whole family! Total change of scenery. The night on the barge is extraordinary. Team with little care for us. I recommend 1000%!

An amazing experience! Top notch. Great service, staff and food. We enjoyed so much and took tons of photos. We did the buggies and catamaran trip.
Hi Anny and thanks for your review!!! Nice to see that your family enjoyed the buggy sunset tour and will see you soon!!!
Extra quad buggy finished with private fruit tasting then night barge ride great food and atmosphere to do
Merci à vous la famille Belly pour revenir vers nous à chaque fois! Nous avons enfin pu faire la sortie Buggy ensemble et nous avons également passé un excellent moment! A l'année prochaine! L'équipe Quetzal
We had a wonderful day thanks to Joy who accompanied us during our sunset safari excursion! On the program: buggy in the sugar cane fields, tasting of Dominican fruits and vegetables at a local, then quad to the Chavon river on which we sailed on a floating barge, with great typical meal and batchata dancing! It was really great and we recommend 100%, go there with your eyes closed 👌🏾 thank you again for this delicious memory
Bonjour et merci pour votre commentaire au sujet de votre journée Buggy!! en effet c'est une très belle excursion à la découverte de l'arrière pays qui mérite d'être plus connue! Merci pour votre confiance L'équipe Quetzal
Excursions at the top Quad Buggy discovery of the sugar cane, stop at the locals' superb tasting of local products, swimming in the river and to finish quality and local meal on the river. A day full of discovery and very well organized tasting.
Merci Aurélie pour votre commentaire concernant votre sortie Buggy Sunset!!! une exclusivité Quetzal, avec une soirée sur la rivière Chavon et un bon repas typique dominicain! Nous sommes heureux d'avoir partagé cette journée privative avec votre famille et amis... et de voir que les petits comme les grands ont profité à fond de cette journée! En espérant vous revoir prochainement dans le coin! L'équipe Quetzal
If anyone is questioning what to do when visiting this area, this tour is excellent! From start to finish Joy and her crew were 100% there for educational purposes, safety, information, and fun! This tour wouldn't be what it is without that crew, they were amazing! We got picked up at our hotel in a buggy/bus, started with the buggies into the sugarcane fields. There we had a lesson on how it was harvested, sampled the sugarcane etc. After that, we kept going to the Haitian village where the workers lived, that in itself was quite an interesting dynamic, we all enjoyed it but wish so badly we could have seen the school and kids! We then switched from buggy's to quads and headed to the Chavon river. We stopped at a little house on the river for drinks and appetizers ( so so so darn good!). We took the quads back to where we started and back in the bus to catch the riverboat. This was the icing on the cake! Our suggestion would just be to have the riverboat tours for 3-4 hours because it was soooo fun!!! It was all fun but that riverboat... we would go again and again! We ate, we played Tarzan, we drank and danced and it was absolutely wonderful! The only tip is to wear old clothes on this tour because it's fun, muddy, wet, and a dang great time! If anyone should book this, you won't regret it! Thank you again to Joy and her wonderful staff and crew!
Day at the top with the sugar cane the Quad the buggy, an extraordinary team dining on the boat with entertainment. Really perfect and on top.
Joy and her team has the entire day & evening planned perfectly! Everything you could want or need was available and came with a smile😁 This excursion was eye opening and was an unforgettable experience! Can’t recommend this company enough!
Great afternoon and early evening! My favorite time is the early evening with the (very good)dance/rum meal but I would say no more because the discovery will be better. Not to be missed! I also do not forget the swimming in the river without anaconda of course and the "Tarzan" 😉 present in our group and the other things we saw. Thanks for this outing, it was top
Merci Carole pour partager votre expérience à propos de notre excursion Buggy! Ns sommes ravis de voir que cela vous a plû..c'est en effet une journée très diversifiée, pleine de découverte et qui vaut la peine d'être vécue :-) A bientot L'équipe Quetzal
