Samana Dagstur gennem Miches

The trip itself was fantastic ! Waterfall was spectacular, horseback ride was good and not as taxing as you would think. Dont worry about steps to waterfall not nearly as brutal as it sounds. Only drawback was the sales pitches at every stop and the trip photos they expect you to buy for 50, you get a photo cd of everyone on the excursion there were 4 photos of my wife and I . We were picked up at 6:30am and dropped off at 8:pm. A very long day.

Samana Day trip through Miches was a very good time overall. We went in the first part of May. Just a few tips for you if you choose this trip!
1. It is a very long day trip 12 hours. It wore us out. :
2. Bring plenty of extra money for tips.
3. If you have a medical issue that prohibits you frrom walking stairs this is not for you. It has lots of steps that are slick.
4. Bring a change of clothes to wear after the horse back ride and wall fall.
The staff are very friendly and helpful with everything you need done. Overall it is a great time!

The day was packed full of fun! A bus ride, then a boat ride, then opened air truck through the country side finally a horseback ride up a mountain to get to a beautiful waterfall.

The waterfall was beautiful and refreshing. Most of your time will be spent in transport: 2 hour bus ride 1 hour boat ride breakfast 30 minute smaller bus ride short presentation of local products and safety instructions short walk 45 minute hors ride 20 minute walk that included 130 steps going down that you have to walk back up going back 30 minute waterfall dip then do all of this again in reverse including eating lunch. Food was decent, guide was great. Bring tip money for your horse wrangler who stays with you while on the horse and acts as your photographer, if needed. Overall, I would do it again, but those stairs are not recommended for anyone who cannot exert too much energy and they fail to mention this in the description.

The Samana day trip through Miches was definitely a full day of activities. Positives: Efficient pickup at hotel. The ride from Samana to Limon where you ride horses to the waterfall was interesting and the countryside is beautiful. The waterfall was also worth seeing. Negatives: The boat used to cross from Miches to Samana was a flat open boat which did not seem suited to cross open ocean, was a very rough, wet ride. The tour guide said at the beginning there was an open bar at lunch and the beach but it was not true. The guides were not friendly and I got the sense they know you won't be back so they don't really care whether you like the excursion or not. My suggestion would be to make the trip but with a different tour company.

Out of 13 hours we traveled 10.5 hours. Only spent 20 minutes at the falls. The boat ride is over an hour in open water. The boat is too small for 6-8 ft waves. You will get soaked. Rough terrain so any physical ailments will hinder you. Don't do this trip you will be miserable! No joke!

The tour was a wonderful experience.you should know the guides don't speak English and it is a long day.it was raining on and off and I don't know if that affected the water but it was a muddy brown.The waterfall itself was beautiful.if you're adventurous u will love it.

you travel for 6 hours UNCOMFORTABLY to get to the waterfall and only get to spend 30 minutes there , the buffet food is not very good either.

We went on a very rainy day but both the waterfall and Bacardi Island were breath taking. The tour guides were very fun and animating they made sure the rain did not stop our fun. I would recommend this trip to anyone who would like to visit Samana.

This was a great experience and the most amazing adventure the tour guide Mr. Pantaleon was excellent he did well with communicating with both English and Spanish speakers.He was thorough,he was friendly and very knowledgeable. I would definitely do this again just because I enjoyed it so much.
