“The truck that picked us up was open to the elements so sit nearer the driver for a less windy trip, although that did add to the adventure. They were also on “Dominican time” so were 10 mins late collecting. Trip itself was very good. Loved the buggy, the house stop was basically a sales pitch for local goods, not really what I was expecting as it wasn’t laid out like a house, but you did get to taste the coffee and chocolate. Jose the guide was like a 70s stand up and should be on the stage! Cave was good but we weren’t there long. Wasn’t cold either so…”

You could get on a quad bike or a dune buggy , we chose a buggy which is great fun, couple of the quads broke down. The only downside was they were very late in picking us up ,1 hour and 15 minutes late. I did manage to get hold of them and they reassured us they were on the way but just wished they’d messaged me first so I wasn’t waiting around for them. Overall a good day out”
