We had the best driver- Robert- who was amazing. We talked with him for the entire 3 hour drive both ways, and learned tons of stuff about Donovan Culture and the country’s history, and the landscapes, and shared a lot of stories back and forth. Once we got to the excursion our good luck continued with some amazing zip lines and an awesome trip down the falls. The guides on the waterfalls: Jacobo and Tony- constantly checked in with us personally and made sure we were having fun and what to do next. The river bed was beautiful and the waterfalls we super exhilarating to jump or slide off.

We’ll make sure he sees your kind words—it’ll mean the world to him! And we’re overjoyed that Jacobo and Tony added so much energy and care to your waterfall adventure. Jumping, sliding, and zipping through those natural wonders is what dreams are made of, and we’re so glad you felt their dedication to making your day unforgettable. Your enthusiasm is contagious! We’d love to welcome you back for more stories, exploration, and adrenaline-pumping moments. Until then, keep chasing those waterfalls! Warmest regards,
Just a great experience. It was beautiful a short hike about twenty minutes or so. Not difficult. A moderate climb. The guides were fun and helpful

The service from Mamajuana Tavel is very satisfactory. Our guide Abraham joined us like a family, and the entire journey was very comfortable. The 27 puddles activity is very short, if there was a place to stay and swim after the jumps and slides it would be much better. However, I had a great time and I loved the experience of the natural slides. In addition, the guys who took us on the tour helped those of us who don't know how to swim.

We had a great time with Alexander! He picked us up early from our Airbnb and drove us to the 27 waterfalls. Didn’t have any problems with the booking or scheduling. Super fun tour and even got to see some of Santiago on the way back. I would recommend!
Hi Shalese_E, Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear Alexander made your adventure seamless and fun—from the early pickup to the scenic drive through Santiago. It’s fantastic that the booking process was smooth and that the 27 Waterfalls lived up to the hype! We’ll make sure Alexander hears how much you appreciated his hospitality and energy (he’ll love that!). Your recommendation means the world to us, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back for more exploration, laughter, and hidden gems along the way! Until next time, keep adventuring!
Overall an average experience. Driver from Santo Domingo was great! Was hospitable and kind. When we got to the waterfalls - the tour operator only spoke Spanish; was hoping for an English speaking guide. The excursion itself was about 2 hours long. Lunch was included at the falls.

This tour to the 27 Pools with Mamajuana Travel was amazing! Our driver and guide, Abraham, was the best... made the ride super comfortable. Although the tour in the puddles was a little short, it was intensely exciting and entertaining. In short, this tour took my five stars. It is a memorable and super exciting experience, ideal for nature lovers.

Horrible. We were unable to participate in most of the activity due to lack of information and lack of preparation. Requirements for participation were not communicated untjl we arrived onsite. The details were misrepresented.
