Your adventure kicks off at 5:00 AM with a pick-up from your hotel to head east. Our first strategic stop is at the picturesque San Juan River, where you'll enjoy a full breakfast to recharge your batteries. When you get to Samaná, you'll board a boat to the famous Cayo Levantado Island. From there, we'll board a catamaran to sail through the majestic Samaná Bay towards Los Haitises National Park. Marvel at the mogotes and venture into the largest mangrove forest in the Caribbean. With our expert guide, you'll visit the indigenous caves, sacred sanctuaries of the Taínos, where you'll see centuries-old pictographs. After the cultural immersion, we'll head back to Cayo Levantado to enjoy a typical buffet lunch with soft drinks. You'll have free time to swim in the turquoise waters or relax under the palm trees before heading back.
