Meeting point
This park has some signs with its name. It has a little statue in the center, some benches around. It's right across from 'obelisco hembra' monument, on George Washington (malecon) ave.

Description

Looking for things to do in Santo Domingo? This hike/rappel trip is for you. Adventure and adrenaline Difficulty level: HIGH. You have to be decently in shape. Rappel and swimming are mandatory (no experience required/don't need to know how to swim). We meet at 8am and take a 2-hour road trip to get to the town,and meet the rappel experts. Then we stretch out, and begin the journey going uphill and then downhill towards the stream. We hike upstream to see La Culebra waterfall, and do a light rappel to practice; and then downstream to Tabernacle Thundering Waterfall (yes, my other experience). You can do a guided or free rappel down this 25-meter waterfall, this is the highlight of the experience. Then we hike downstream through some swimming wholes, jumps and slides until the end. Then we change clothes (there's no dressing room. We don't get wet to the car). Finally, we go back to have lunch, and get back to Santo Domingo happy at 5pm

Life changing

All I can say is wow. Ronnie and his team are highly experienced and I felt safe going on this insane adventure. We rapelled down two waterfalls, jumped off of cliffs, hiked, and swam the entire day. Also had breakfast and lunch and the locals house. I will be joining this group every year we visit the DR. 5 starts across the board. Best money spent on this trip.

The best EXperience you are going to get

I went with a trip with my friends as part of my birthday cause usually I like to do this kind of adventures. What I didn't know is that it was going to be as challenging and fun as it was. I definitely enjoyed every part of the trip. The food is 10/10 the guides are super friendly and take everything into consideration for safety. I will definitely recommend this trip to anyone who wants a very fun and different experience.

Challenging, but extremely rewarding experience! Highly recommended!

This was both mine and my fiancé's first time using the rappel and we couldn't ask for a better first-time experience than this. It was challenging, but we always felt safe and supported by Ronnie and this team, and of course, we had a lot of fun! Doing the Tabernacle trip first, took the experience to another level. 10/10 would recommend it again!

SUPER ADVENTURE

I have had quite a few experiences doing excursions, but the service that Ronnie provides has exceeded my expectations thanks to all the logistics that handle transportation, supervision, and activities. The service Ronnie provides is exceptional. I'm waiting for a next opportunity to go on an excursion with him. You don't know you need a guide like Ronnie until you live the experience.

A day for history

I love all! Beautiful landscapes and a unique experience, full of emotions and laughter. The team is very trained and attentive to our needs. Totally recommended. Wear gloves to protect your hands from rappelling and thank me later 🫶🏻

Experience 10/10

I loved the experience! Every time I travel with Ronny I have a great time. The quality of their service, the treatment and preparation are TOP 10. The food, not to mention, very good, I always end up delighted. Without a doubt I would repeat the experience 10 more times. Recommended with eyes closed😍🙌🙌

TREAT YOURSELF

WOW! Gotta be the best way to see one of the coolest spots on earth, and I couldn't imagine better people to do it with. The rocks were slippery on this misty day (my first time rappelling): Donnie, Ephraim, and José were there every step of the way making sure everything was safe and feeling right. The river in between the two surreal waterfalls has jumps and slides of different heights for those interested, and is, just like the mountain it runs through, like something out of a movie. Will definitely go again next year. (All I'd bring is a water bottle with a carabiner or strap.) Cheers and thanks for a great time!

Thanks Ronnie

A wonderful experience. You find crystalline rivers with very fresh waters and spectacular stone canyons that show you how impressive nature is. Extreme experience, very fun and that awakens countless other sensations and emotions. Thank you Ronnie for allowing us to live such a beautiful experience.
