Whale Watching & Limón Waterfall Day Trip

7.Whale Watching & Limón Waterfall Day Trip

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 94 reviews · from $169

Travel from Punta Cana to Samaná Bay for a catamaran whale watch, then ride a horse for 30 minutes through tropical plants, coffee, and cocoa to 165-foot El Limón Waterfall. Expect about 13 hours total, including roughly 10 hours of transport, lunch, and a moderate physical effort.

“Watching the whales was worth the trip. It was amazing to watch them so close! If I had to do this again, I would choose one excursion without the Lemon Cascade. The Lemon Cascade is beautiful too, but you have to walk up and down 280 steps each way, and for me it would have been better to stop in a beach instead.”

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 25 reviews · from $140

Travel from Punta Cana to Samaná by coach, boat, safari truck, and horseback. Visit El Limón waterfall, eat a Dominican lunch, look for whales when in season, and relax at Bacardi Island. Guides such as Pedro and Luis have been praised, but expect a long, crowded day with basic transport.

“Bootsfahrt nach Samana und Safari Tour waren okay, nur das mit den Pferden zum Wasserfall reiten ist pure Tierquälerei, die Pferde werden geschlagen und durch den Matsch über Steine getrieben. Das kostet danach sogar noch extra Geld. Tut weh da zuzuschauen, wir sind dann einfach zu Fuß mitgelaufen. Der El Limon Wasserfall ist total von Touristen überlaufen. Hätte mir vom Reiseleiter nur Paar mehr Infos zwischendurch erhofft, nur leider konnte der kein richtiges Deutsch obwohl ich das vorher sogar auswählen konnte welche Sprache ich wünsche.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 11 reviews

Spend four hours at Bávaro Adventure Park riding horses along quiet nature trails, cooling off in the Waterfall Pool, and eating a typical Dominican lunch. Spanish, English, and French guides lead the outing. Shared hotel pickup is available, but expect strict rules about phones, bags, and cameras.

“En soit le cadre est génial, uniquement le temps d’attente avant de partir à l’équitation qui a été de presque 1h (trop long). J’aurai souhaité faire plus de cheval sur différents sentiers. Ensuite la où nous avons été surpris est le prix à l’intérieur du parc (16€ pour avoir une photo du photographe, 6€ un petit magnum.. ) mais le personnel top !”
