It's a really dreamlike Jungle experience. You see so many animals : Pelicans, ospreys, frigate birds, rare herons, bats and dolphins. The landscape alternates between mangrove forest, lagoon, beach and caves with historical sculptures. The guide Nacio really knows a lot about wildlife and plants, has given everything, explained a lot and was thrilled himself when a large sea turtle appeared.

Our guide was so amazing and so informative. I am a nature lover and I love ecology! Learning about plants and birds and the mangrove ecosystem was so interesting! Jackson was our tour guide and did a fantastic job. We had a bit of a hiccup meeting up with them but it all worked out in the end. This was probably my favorite trip in the DR.
