What a great way to spend... - What a great way to spend the day in DR. You will get covered in mud! Bring clothes you don’t care about and ideally bring a change of clothes and throw your clothes away after the trip. If you enjoy cigars take the tour at the stopping point and enjoy a cigar!

Best excursion so far! - This was such a great excursion!! We had a fantastic time and the staff were super friendly. We drove through the jungle, stopped at a little village (no pressure to but from the locals like many other places but opportunities are there). We also stopped at the beach where we jumped in to clean off. This is NOT an excursion to wear good clothes to…you will get dirty! Bring a head covering because the helmets are reused and a bandana for the lower half of your face. Goggles are provided. The buggies are outdoor buggies that will be dirty but that’s what we went for - the mud and fun!! It was soooo fun! The actual riding was 2 hours. To get there you have to walk about 15 mins but it’s flat and not bad at all. I had a knee issue and did fine. Shout out to Chris for fulfilling his promise of getting us super muddy and gung the best time ever!

Just do it! - This was an absolute blast! We got wet and muddy, so bring some clothes you don't mind getting dirty. (Maybe your bathing suit under your clothes.) We stopped at the beach for a wash. They also have an outside shower. It was worth every penny!

Tropical Trails & Muddy Wheels - This excursion was absolutely incredible! From cruising through the city streets to tearing through the forest trails, and finally arriving at a stunning beach, every moment was packed with excitement. There was no shortage of dirt, mud, and pure fun. If you’re planning to go, just know: getting dirty is all part of the experience! Ladies, be sure to protect your hair, leave anything you don’t want muddy behind, and definitely bring a change of clothes. I highly recommend using the lockers they offer for $5, they are super convenient and worth it. We also purchased the photo package, and it was totally worth it. We received all our photos, plus a video complete with Merengue music, around 11 p.m. while we were already back at sea. It was such a fun surprise to relive the adventure that same night! This was truly a thrilling experience, and I’d recommend it to anyone visiting the Dominican Republic. Unforgettable!

Do it! - The group was small and well-organized. It was easy to find the meet up location, and the buggies were super fun! My 16 year old and I loved it!
