The 6 National Parks Tours in Punta Cana That Earn Their Price

1.Los Haitises National Park Full-Day Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 29 reviews · 9 hours · from $129Our pick

Leave Punta Cana early for a full day in Los Haitises National Park. You will cruise through mangroves, visit Taíno caves, swim at Caño Hondo, eat a Dominican lunch, and ride a jeep to Montaña Redonda. English, Spanish, and French guides are available, but English coverage can vary.

“If you speak Spanish or French this tour is great for you. If you only speak English you might feel like a bit uninformed. As and English speaker I would rate it 4 stars. Since the driver and some guides speak almost no English but since I do speak Spanish and the tour as such is brilliant no matter if you speak the language or not I highly recommend doing it. yes it's a very long day but it's always in a small group and you never drive more than 2 hours at once. The time goes by fast since it's very different activities and it seemed suitable for young…”

2.Santo Domingo Day Tour with National Park

★★★★★★★★★★3.2 · 22 reviews · 8 hours · from $90Best value

Travel from Punta Cana to Santo Domingo with hotel pickup, a multilingual guide, lunch, and stops at Three Eyes National Park, Columbus Lighthouse, the Presidential Palace, and the Colonial Zone. The advertised tour lasts 8 hours, but transport and shared pickups can make the day considerably longer.

“Manque d’information 2 heures se sont écoulés de la prise en charge à l’hôtel au changement de bus pour faire ensuite 3 heures de route jusqu’à santo Domingo. Ensuite le guide parle trois langues donc il n’a pas que des français dans le groupe il répète donc trois fois la même chose ce qui occasionne une perte de temps. Le dîner quand même bien les trois boutiques visiter attrape touristes toujours les mêmes bebelles. Et les lieux historique ouf ben ordinaire comme explication par notre trilangue. Je ne recommande pas ce 8 heures de transport pour 3 heures d’excursion. Très déçu!”
