Board a MEGA truck -- an extra-large open-air vehicle -- for a journey through the Dominican Republic landscape to Puerto Plata. Get the full picture of Dominican life, history, culture, and folklore.
Begin with highlights of Puerto Plata, including a drive along the Malecon (waterfront), Independence Square and the downtown area. Hidden treasures in the countryside include off-road villages, indigenous flora and fauna, a local school and a typical countryside home.
At MEGA ranch, head through plantations of cacao, bananas, papaya, pineapple, and exotic flowers. Enjoy a tasty Dominican Republic lunch accompanied by organic cocoa.
Notes:
Guests who are pregnant or have a back or neck condition are not allowed to participate. Participants must be able to climb the MEGA truck ladder. As with all schools, it is closed on weekends, public holidays, and summer vacation.
