Buggy Tours in Punta Cana

One of the best things to do in Punta Cana is to book a buggy adventure. These all-terrain vehicles allow you to explore the region by going deep into the countryside and jungle. You can reach cocoa and coffee plantations, see horses and sheep up close and get to hidden tropical paradises.

Each buggy tour offers something different. Some are planned for a day at the beach, others allow you to explore the lagoons and caves of Punta Cana and the children's favorites have fun themes. It's definitely a family plan that you should add to your list of things to do in Punta Cana if you're going for a week or even less.

If you are looking for something different to do on your vacation, then I recommend a Buggy adventure from Punta Cana to Macao Beach. These trips usually have an average cost of 50 € and last about 4 hours, more or less. The great advantage of these tours is that you will be able to enter rural areas and appreciate the Dominican Republic from another point of view.

If you want to visit the beaches of Punta Cana, the buggy or also known as sand buggy, is your ideal means of transportation because it is made to drive on the sand.

On the way you will pass through cocoa and coffee plantations. You will also be able to see some of the rural areas and houses of the region. Remember that at all times you will be traveling with a group and will be guided by a professional guide. Do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have before or during the buggy adventure.

When traveling by buggy you will be exposed to dust, dirt and sand. Although it can be fun to get dirty on the road, I recommend that you protect your eyes, nose and mouth. You can use a handkerchief to cover your nose and mouth and sunglasses. Don't forget to ask for your helmet before starting the tour.

Punta Cana is a very sought after tourist destination in the Dominican Republic. This is due to its beautiful landscapes and different environments. Buggy adventures help you explore many of these sites in a single day and in a fun way.

The further you go with your vehicle, the more you will be able to see jungles, plantations, rural areas and subway cave formations. Without a doubt the buggy is a great way to see the Dominican Republic beyond Punta Cana as you will get to see much more than just the most popular beaches.

You will also have the opportunity to see different farm animals such as horses, sheep and pigs. If you choose an adventure to Monkeyland, you will be able to see and interact with the monkeys in this natural park. If you are a nature lover, Punta Cana is the ideal destination for you.

As I mentioned before, if you travel by buggy you are bound to get dirty. That's why my first recommendation is to wear comfortable clothes that don't stain easily. A pair of comfortable shoes that you can wash after your adventure will also be the best option. If you want to take a backpack, make sure it is waterproof so that your belongings do not get wet.

On the other hand, I advise you to try to plan your trip during the best time to visit Punta Cana. Between October and December the rainy season will be over, so the weather is pleasant and you will have more freedom to go out and explore as much as you want.

Don't forget to apply sunscreen whenever you go to the beach or on a buggy adventure. Try to take it with you to apply more during the day. The last thing you want is to get sick from sunstroke on your vacation.
