Fun Fun Cave (Cueva) Experience Tour

Your experience starts off with a light snack and a guided 30-minute ride on horseback through the epic landscapes of Los Haitises National Park. You’ll also have the chance to explore on foot, as you venture into the depths of the forest on a 40-minute trek to the mouth of Fun Fun Cave.

Your professional guide will help you repel 65 feet (20 meters) into the depths of the cave, where you’ll navigate the hidden chambers and dark tunnels filled with West Indian Taino rock art and flowing rivers. Wander through the stunning stalactites and stalagmites, plus incredible lava columns and rock formations as your guide points out the cave’s dramatic features and shares history and stories about this unique destination.

You’ll have time to enjoy a quick beverage once you make your way out of the cave, before heading back to your starting point on horseback for a traditional Dominican lunch. Cool off with a dip in the nearby river (don’t forget to wear your suit!) and then relax for the comfortable drive back to your Punta Cana hotel.
