Day Trip, Group Tour

Offer Image
Take part in an adventure where you will experience the thrill of the Waterfalls of Damajagua and take a quick ride on a zip line, making for an exciting half-day and memorable time while in the Dominican Republic.

Waterfalls of Damajagua and Quick Zip

Be met directly at the cruise port area by your local, friendly representative who will welcome you to the Dominican Republic. You will be escorted to your waiting transportation for an approximate 20-minute scenic ride to the west where you will discover seven of the beautiful Waterfalls of Damajagua, one of the highest rated attractions on the North Coast of the Dominican Republic. Also known as 27 Charcos, Mother Nature has created awe-inspiring pools, etched out of limestone, with stalactites and stalagmites in a thousand colors.

Only recently, around 1994, did this area become an attraction. Nestled in the rolling hills of a mountain range you will soon uncover a breath-taking site like you have never seen before. You will begin with an approximately 30-minute hike uphill to reach the area where you will start this active adventure. You will then begin to make your way back down the hillside by swimming, jumping and sliding through the refreshing, crystal-clear water. For those who do not wish to participate in the higher jumps, there is a walk-around ladder for convenience.

By now you will no doubt have worked up an appetite, so it's time to make your way to your lunch stop. Settle in at the Country House Bar for a delicious, home-cooked Dominican lunch consisting of rice, beans, chicken or beef, fried sweet potatoes and yucca, vegetables, fresh tropical fruits and more.

From here your adventure continues as you make your way to the pool zip line. After the mandatory safety briefing from the trained professional staff, it's time to feel the adrenaline. This short zip line experience allows you to ride on zip line #9, which takes you for a plunge into the swimming pool! This shorter version of the Zip and Splash Adventure is for those who are looking for an option that does not include the full zip line course.

Still up for more? Join us for a walk through our tropical garden to learn about the local flora and meet our friendly parrots before returning to the cruise ship pier.

For those customers interested in private tours, we offer many outstanding excursions that allow you to travel with your party alone and, in many cases, to fully customize your tour. Search for "Private Tours" if you are interested in this experience. Our "Scenic" tours provide up close and personal access to some of the most spectacular natural environments on Earth from majestic glaciers in Alaska to spectacular reefs in the Caribbean. Our "Cultural" tours allow customers to experience local customs, entertainment and culinary delights ranging from tribal dances in Alaska to an outstanding local meal in Santorini, Greece. Our "Active" tours offer a multitude of exciting and adventurous ways to experience our destinations. Our customers can kayak the turquoise waters of the Caribbean, hike to a spectacular waterfall in Hawaii, or bicycle through quaint villages in France. Our "City" tours allow travelers to see the highlights of great cities around the world with unique insights provided by our expert tour guides.
