Overview

This Eric Tours International excursion pairs the Damajagua Waterfalls with a Dominican lunch buffet, hotel pickup and drop-off, and the gear you need in the canyon: helmet, water shoes and a life jacket. The itinerary on the listing shows about an hour of travel each way and up to four hours at the falls, so plan for most of the day even though the listing gives no total duration. Park admission is included.

At the falls, the outing is physical. Reviewers describe the hike up as demanding and say the fun is in jumping in and sliding down the waterfalls, with guides and a photographer staying close the whole way. One reviewer noted that mules are on hand in case of emergency. After the canyon, lunch is served, though the listing does not state where or at what point in the day.

It suits travellers with moderate fitness who want a guided waterfall run without organising transport or equipment themselves. The group is capped at ten people and a minimum of two bookings applies. It is not a fit for wheelchair users, pregnant travellers or people with back problems, and the listing does not state age requirements, so check with the operator before booking if children are coming.

What To Expect From The Tour

Here is what past travellers and the listing say the day actually involves, from fitness to footwear.

Fitness and pace. The listing asks for a moderate level of physical fitness, and reviewers back that up. One said the hike up is no joke and would not recommend it to anyone really out of shape. Go prepared for a sustained climb before the water section.
Footwear. Helmet, water shoes and life jacket are included in the tour. One reviewer still advised bringing good-soled water shoes, calling them a must. If you own a sturdy pair, pack it.
Dry clothes. The listing tells travellers to bring an extra set of dry clothes. You will get fully wet in the canyon. A change for the ride back makes the day more comfortable.
Group feel. The tour runs with a maximum of ten travellers and requires at least two people per booking. Reviewers described the staff as courteous and attentive, with a driver and photographer accompanying the group.
Food and drink. A lunch buffet and bottled water are included. Alcoholic drinks are not included but can be purchased, and gratuities are excluded. The listing does not say when lunch is served, so check the booking page for timing.
Weather dependence. The experience requires good weather. If it is cancelled for poor conditions, the listing says you will be offered a different date or a full refund. The same applies if the minimum number of travellers is not met.

Common issues. One reviewer reported a different day than advertised, with stops at two places selling souvenirs and cigars before and after the falls, and lunch served at the waterfall site rather than at a local restaurant as they had expected. The listing itself flags the physical demands: it is not wheelchair accessible, not recommended for pregnant travellers or those with back problems, and requires moderate fitness. Cancellations within 24 hours of the start time receive no refund, and the tour can be cancelled for weather or low numbers, with a different date or a full refund offered in those cases. Alcoholic drinks and gratuities are extra.
