Description
Ride your own ATV through the countryside and across a river, then observe squirrel monkeys roaming free in their habitat at Monkeyland — with free pickup from cruise ports and hotels.
Begin your adventure on your own ATV for a 2-hour guided ride through the countryside of Puerto Plata. After a safety briefing and a practice session, follow your guide over dirt trails, past green fields and through a river crossing, with a helmet included for your safety. Then head to Monkeyland, a natural sanctuary where dozens of squirrel monkeys live and roam freely across five acres of tropical habitat. Your visit begins with a short briefing from the sanctuary's guides, who care for the monkeys every day. They will explain how the animals are fed, monitored and protected, and the simple rules that keep them safe and relaxed, then walk with you into the habitat. From the designated visitor areas, watch the monkeys leap between branches, play and groom each other, and come down to their feeding stations under the staff's supervision. Along the way, enjoy a cultural stop with a mamajuana tasting at La Chosa The Jungle, and finish with a refreshing swim stop at the beach. This excursion is specially designed for cruise passengers: we pick you up right at the port and guarantee your on-time return to the ship. Free pickup and drop-off at the Amber Cove cruise port (5 minutes away), the Taino Bay cruise port (15 minutes away) and hotels in Maimon, Cofresi, Playa Dorada, Costa Dorada and Puerto Plata. Bilingual guides in English and Spanish. The tour lasts 4 hours. Minimum age: 4 years; children must be accompanied by an adult.
