Puerto Plata with its charms invites you to experience the 27 waterfalls of Damajagua (27 Charcos), discovered just a few years ago and submerged in the beautiful hills of the northern mountain range, this natural monument is part of the system of protected areas of the Dominican Republic.
27 Waterfalls is hidden up in a tropical canyon is a string of waterfalls that you can hike to and slide down, swim under, and jump off on your way back down. You’ll head up with a tour guide who will help make sure you’re jumping off of safe spots, might explain some of the history of these gorgeous falls, some of which have ancient legends stemming back from the Taino Indians who first discovered this gem, and from my experience will just make the adventure even more fun.

Great experience! - Picked up right outside of the port and had a great time. Got a little history and information on the way there and felt very taken care of through the process of checking in and getting started.
We do wish there were more jumps and slides but it was a lot of fun!
Lunch was so delicious!

Great service - Edwin tours is fantastic. Easy communication.! Picked up dropped off at right location. Even showed us a little cocoa and cigar factory at end.! Typical food was great!
This is nothing against Edwin tours. But if you are at a resort (not a cruise ship). Keep an eye on cruise ship traffic. The amount of people at the falls made the excursion less fun. Book your excursion on a day when less than 3 cruise ships are in port. Falls were great. Edwin tours was great. Little word of advice!

Great waterfall experience! - This is a wonderful experience but can be challenging. However, the guides are great about stopping to give breaks and helping as needed to slide down the waterfalls. Just understand that you are actually hiking up the mountain and will slide or jump off the waterfalls. All the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Great overall experience as alternative to shore excursion purchased on-board - Great overall experience as alternative to shore excursion purchased on-board. Easy to meet driver, beat the crowds to the waterfalls, and nice small group.

Loved it! - Excellent! If you are on Carnival, you will walk all the way out of the port to the main highway. Van will be on your left.
Such a wonderful experience. Van was new and air-conditioned. Drive for about 15 minutes. Even though we chose 9 am, they messaged us 2 days before to say they would pick us up 45 min afternour cruise docked. So we ended up being picked up at 7:45. Though early, it was PERFECT to avoid the crowds.
We were able to do 4 out of the 7 waterfalls due to low water levels, but this did not negatively affect the experience. Beautiful nature and refreshing water. So fun.
The hike up to the waterfalls is about 35 minutes, mostly uphill but plenty of breaks. Our guides were kind and helpful. Felt like a small group tour even though there were about 25 of us there.
After the activity, you will eat at the same locale. 1 bottle of water is provided before the hike, another at lunch. The food was delicious.
Once finished, we went to a small plantation with cocoa, tobacco and guava plants. We watched cigars being hand rolled.
Lovely day.

Great Adventure, but Prepare to Wait - My wife and I really enjoyed the overall experience of this excursion. We liked the hiking aspect to get to the top of the mountain, and then enjoyed the water, whether sliding, jumping and floating through. The guides were great and communicated through the trip.
It is important to note that in the description it says "up to 7 waterfalls" as part of this experience. We were told that this is dependent on the rain fall and water levels, which makes sense, but don't expect that you are going to get 7. I think we only ended up doing 3 or 4.
We were also part of a much larger group once we got to the waterfalls. Our booking company only included 3 people, which was nice on our travel to and from, but we were grouped with probably another 100+ people. This made for an extremely large overall group, which resulted in a lot of waiting. We stopped about every 5-10 minutes since we had people of different fitness, then there were long lines to actually do the waterfalls.
After our adventure, we enjoyed an awesome lunch. The food was very fresh, and well prepared. It was a great example of the local cuisine.
I recognize this isn't the fault of the booking company, but the waterfall was very crowded which made the experience a little less for us. I think we would still do it again, but we would go in with a different mindset.

Our driver did a poor job... - Our driver did a poor job of communicating the meeting location and time after our tour. Ultimately we had to call the tour company and walk through the park to find him afterwards. Additionally, the tour itself was not worth it. It only featured 4 sections (3 slides and 1 jump). The hiking portion was much longer than the canyoneering itself. Overall, not worth the money.

Pick An Earlier Time - Or Don’t Go - This was an unforgettable experience overall! The company itself delivered exactly what was promised, they picked us up and dropped us off, and everything listed in the tour was included. No issues at all with their service.
The excursion itself was incredible. The natural waterslides were so much fun, and being able to jump into the water made it even more memorable.
However, the biggest challenge was how overcrowded it was. It felt like the location was overbooked, with hundreds of people waiting in tight spaces. There were long pauses and a lot of standing around, and at times it felt unsafe due to how crowded it became.
I think booking an earlier time slot might help, but overall there definitely needs to be a better system to manage the number of visitors.
So while the experience itself was amazing, the overcrowding did take so much joy away from it.
