This wild buggy ride through the Dominican countryside makes for a morning of adrenaline-pumping adventure. As well as rumbling through rustic villages, you’ll visit an organic farm and cool off with a swim in a cenote. There’s no better way to put a bit of oomph into your holidays.
After pick-up, we’ll head to a ranch for a safety briefing and the lowdown on Terracross buggies. Don your helmet, put on your belt and give it some welly. You’ll zoom across the backwoods to the co-op farm. Your guide will tell you about and let you try traditional Dominican products such as coconut oil, chocolate tea, tobacco, rum, cocoa and, of course, the world-famous coffee.
Buggy driving can be a messy business, so you’ll round up with a chance to freshen up with a swim in a cenote – a natural spring of crystal clear water.
