The Experience

Before You Go

Wear sturdy closed-toe shoes

Platforms and short forest walks are uneven—trail runners or hiking shoes offer better grip than sandals.

Bring a small daypack with water

Carry at least 1 liter of water and a lightweight rain shell; bottled water may be available for purchase but plan ahead.

Protect your camera

Use a secure strap or wrist tether—shots from platforms are great, but phones easily slip when leaning out.

Plan for pickup timings

Operator picks up guests from Punta Cana hotels about 120 minutes before departure—confirm exact pickup point when you book.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Small on-site coffee roasting demo where you can buy freshly roasted beans
  • Short walk behind the last platform to a viewpoint over a shaded valley for quiet photos

Wildlife

  • White-faced capuchin monkeys
  • Tropical birds like motmots and orioles

Conservation Note

Operators work with local landowners to minimize new infrastructure; visitors are asked not to feed wildlife outside supervised moments and to leave no trash behind.

The Anamuya foothills have long supported small-scale farming; coffee and cacao were introduced during colonial and post-colonial planting cycles and remain a key local income source.
