Private Horseback Ride and Falls

Discover the authentic beauty of the Samana Province on this private adventure that takes you deep into the Dominican Republic's lush countryside. Step away from the crowds and experience a glimpse of local life, where warm smiles and natural beauty welcome you at every turn. After meeting your local guide at the pier, enjoy a scenic 25-minute drive through the countryside to a private ranch surrounded by tropical landscapes and local farms. Here, you'll be matched with your horse and trail guide for a picturesque ride through the mountains and river valley, crossing shallow streams just like a true cowboy. Guests who prefer not to ride may choose to hike alongside the group. Your ride leads to the stunning El Limon Waterfall, one of the Dominican Republic's most famous natural wonders. From the trailhead, follow your guide on a short hike of approximately 200 uneven steps to reach the pool below the falls. Cool off with a refreshing swim in the clear waters or simply relax and admire the breathtaking scenery. Afterward, make your way back to the ranch where a delicious, locally prepared lunch awaits. Learn about native plants and fruits growing abundantly in the region before visiting a small local shop. Here, you'll have the chance to sample fresh Dominican coffee, local fruits, traditional chocolate, and even watch hand-rolled cigars being made. A perfect way to end your cultural and nature-filled day in Samana. Please note: Expect bumps on the majority of the unpaved roads you'll be traveling on during the journey. The maximum weight for horse riding is 250 pounds. Any guests weighing over 250 pounds will not be allowed to participate and will not be entitled to a refund. Participants under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or any other substance that impairs judgment will not be allowed to join and will not receive a refund.
