Jacquelyn’s Guide to Cabarete-Sosua
Excursions
A must-do for anyone seeking an outdoor adventure.
The tour starts with a moderate hike of around 60 minutes that leads up to the top of the falls where you will jump, slide and swim your way back down to base camp, emerging with a silly grin on your face and memories to cherish!
The jumps are up to 8m/25ft but all have walk arounds if you don't feel comfortable with the heights.
I'd be happy to assist in setting you up with a tour where transportation and lunch will be included. Just ask :)
