Discover the Real Dominican Republic: Higuey City & Punta Cana Safari Guide

Tourists exploring a local market in Punta Cana with fresh tropical produce at a Fun Punta Cana Tours market visit

If you want to experience the true soul of the “Real Dominican Republic,” you have to step away from the resort beach for a day. Our premier Punta Cana Safari tour takes you deep into the heart of the lush countryside and the bustling, historic city of Higuey. It’s an unforgettable journey filled with authentic flavors, rich history, and warm local smiles with Fun Punta Cana Tours.

At a trusted best Punta Cana tours operator, we take you far beyond the resort walls to discover the cultural pulse of our island.

The Basilica of Higuey

Our first major cultural stop is the world-famous Basilica of Our Lady of Altagracia. This architectural marvel is the most important spiritual and religious site in the entire country. Even if you usually spend your vacation days enjoying snorkeling in Punta Cana, the breathtaking scale, modern design, and profound spiritual energy of this cathedral are truly awe-inspiring.

  • Taste the Freshness: Try organic cacao, fresh coffee, and sweet tropical fruits picked straight from the tree.
  • Meet the Locals: Visit a traditional Dominican country home and learn about daily life, music, and heritage in the mountains.
