Overview

This Enma and Ivo tour packs the Damajagua waterfalls, a monkey sanctuary visit and a run through Puerto Plata's historic centre into one shore-excursion-style day. Pickup is included, and reviewers coming off cruise ships describe it as a workable way to cover all three in a port stop. Transport runs in a van with a driver-guide who stays with the group between stops.

The falls portion takes place at the Damajagua site, where entrance and security equipment are covered by the tour. Guides lead groups through the falls and reviewers describe them as funny and helpful at each step. After the water, the itinerary moves to the Monkey Home sanctuary, where interaction with the monkeys was the highlight for at least one travelling family, then finishes with a city tour of Puerto Plata.

A lunch buffet and bottled water are included, as is the city tour itself. Footwear rental and lockers are not included, and tips are extra. The trip suits travellers with moderate fitness, since the hike to the falls is described as a little strenuous. It is not wheelchair accessible, and the listing advises against it for travellers with back or heart problems.

What To Expect From The Tour

A few practical points worth knowing before booking this combination day.

Fitness and pace. The listing asks for a moderate physical fitness level, and one reviewer called the hike to the falls a little strenuous. Guides help groups through each step at the falls. Travellers with back problems or heart conditions are advised against booking.
What to bring. Footwear rental and a locker are not included, so budget extra for those. Bottled water is supplied on the van, and one reviewer noted the guide handed out cold bottles before the falls hike. Bring cash for tips and for those rentals.
Group feel. The listing allows for large groups, up to a maximum of 200 travellers. That said, several reviewers described a personal experience, and one reported having their guide essentially to themselves.
Food and drink. A lunch buffet is included, arranged at Damajagua according to one reviewer. Bottled water is provided in the vehicle. Anything beyond that comes at your own cost.
Cruise timing. Reviewers arriving by ship managed the falls, the monkeys and downtown within a port call running from early morning to early afternoon. Confirm start times on the booking page.

Common issues. Footwear rental and lockers are not included, and tips are extra. The tour is not wheelchair accessible and is not recommended for travellers with back problems or serious medical conditions. The experience needs good weather and a minimum number of travellers, and if either condition is not met you will be offered a different date or a full refund. Cancellations made less than 24 hours before the start time are not refunded.
