Punta Cana Adventure Bundle: Monkeyland, Zipline & Off‑Road Buggies
Spend a full day in the Anamuya foothills: off-road buggies, a 12-line ACCT-certified zipline, and a guided squirrel-monkey encounter, with local Dominican lunch included. This active Punta Cana outing blends driving, canopy flying, and wildlife close-ups into one practical, adventure-packed itinerary.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring a valid driver’s license
Drivers must have at least one year of driving experience and present a valid license to operate buggies—plan for alternate riders if you don’t meet this requirement.
Respect weight and age limits
Zipline weight limits are roughly 44–280 lbs (20–127 kg) and the minimum age for participants is 6; check restrictions before booking.
Hydrate and pace yourself
You’ll be active in humid conditions for most of the day—carry electrolyte water and take advantage of shaded rest stops.
Wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes
Trails and river crossings are rough; closed-toe shoes with good tread protect feet during buggy sections and short hikes.
Local Knowledge
Hidden Gems
- •Stop at the small roadside coconut house to sample fresh coconut oil, roasted coffee and cacao produced by local families

Wildlife
- •Squirrel monkeys (in supervised enclosures)
- •Tropical birds such as Hispaniolan woodpeckers and motmots
Conservation Note
Operations maintain animal care protocols and limit interaction time at Monkeyland; visitors should avoid feeding wildlife and follow leave-no-trace practices to reduce impact.
The Anamuya area sits on eroded volcanic and limestone formations that shaped local waterways; the nearby sugar economy and rural settlements influenced trails now used for eco-adventures.
