    About this experience

    You should do this tour if you love adventure. 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.

    Unmissable Falls but skip this group

    The Falls are excellent and should not be missed - the tour however is a pass. Find one that doesn’t stop at lame tourist shops on the way back.

    Incredible Experience — But Be Ready to Climb! 😂

    That’s a great detail because it shows how much fun it was across a pretty big age range. I’d add it while still making the physical-demand warning clear: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Experience — Definitely Know What You’re Signing Up For! Overall, we had an absolutely fantastic time on this waterfall tour! From our driver to our tour guides, everyone was wonderful, friendly and helpful. The waterfalls were beautiful, the experience was thrilling, and our entire family had so much fun. Our group included family members ranging from 9 years old all the way up to 50, and everyone enjoyed it! The lunch afterward was also great. A few things I think are important for future guests to know: The meeting point does require a bit of a walk outside of the port/security gate to meet your driver. They were able to drop us off closer when we returned, which was appreciated, but if you’re expecting to be picked up directly inside the cruise port, that is not how this particular tour works. Also, this is definitely a physically demanding excursion. There are lots of rocks, uneven terrain, narrow steps and A LOT of climbing. I believe we were told there were more than 3,000 steps throughout the experience. If you have difficulty walking, climbing stairs, navigating uneven surfaces or have mobility concerns, I would probably choose a different excursion. I’m glad I did it, but my legs definitely knew I did it afterward! 😂 My one real suggestion would be to have smaller groups going through the waterfalls at one time. At the bottom of the first slide, there were so many people in the water that it became very crowded. You can’t touch the bottom in that area, although you are wearing a life jacket, and with everyone trying to swim, move and get to the steps at the same time, there was quite a bit of pushing and bumping. I’m a little claustrophobic, so I found that part uncomfortable, but even members of my family who aren’t claustrophobic thought it was a lot. I think smaller groups, or allowing a little more time between groups going down, would make an already great experience even better. That being said, we had an amazing day. Our guides were fantastic, the scenery was incredible, lunch was delicious, and seeing everyone from the youngest at 9 to the oldest at 50 having such a great time made it even more memorable. It was definitely a FULL day, definitely an adventure, and something I’m really glad we experienced while visiting the Dominican Republic! 🇩🇴❤️🌴

    Great experience highly recommend very accommodating for pick up location. Also when my step son over heated from the walk everyone waited and grabbed him a Gatorade! Over the top service! The slides and jumps are so fun and beautiful! Also get the photographer service!

    Great Tour Group

    Our family of seven loved this trip, including an 11 year old and two eight year olds. It is a hard and hot walk up to the top, but the waterfalls are so worth it. Edwin Transfers was the best and answered all of my questions before the trip. I highly recommend them.

    Response from the operator: Hello [Dear Suzanne]! It's wonderful to read your words. Knowing that we've met your expectations is our greatest motivation to keep improving. Thank you for your support! Thanks Edwin Tours

    Waterful

    Worth the hike water was refreshing. You only slide and jump 3 waterfalls so its easy. The last jump is high but u can jump from lower or use the later

    7 waterfalls+typical food: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Puerto Plata.

    How much does 7 waterfalls+typical food cost?

    +

    Prices start at $60 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Puerto Plata usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 7 waterfalls+typical food take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Puerto Plata is not rushed.

    Is 7 waterfalls+typical food worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 87 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 567 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Puerto Plata, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 7 waterfalls+typical food?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 7 waterfalls+typical food suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 7 waterfalls+typical food?

    +

    Around 198 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Puerto Plata can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Puerto Plata and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 7 waterfalls+typical food start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Puerto Plata within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Puerto Plata?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Puerto Plata experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Monkeyland and Zipline Adventure from Puerto Plata, Monkeyland Puerto Plata, Puerto Plata Highlights City Tours from amber cove and Taino bay. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Puerto Plata?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Puerto Plata?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
