Meet your private guide at Punta Cana International airport, who will transfer you to your hotel. Set off with your guide on an introductory tour of the city.

Peek at the duplicate homes of the ancient Taino Indians, who conquered the land before the Conquistadors appeared.
Day 3: Venturing to Indigenous Eyes Park
Venture to the Indigenous Eyes Park, an ecological park and reserve that stretches over 1,500 acres of subtropical forest. Find out that this area is dedicated to conservation and scientific research. Enjoy the twelve freshwater lagoons here, out of which five are open for swimming. Guama Lagoon is about 26 feet deep, and many like diving off the platform. This is a place where you should definitely take some photos.
Day 4: Discovering Hoyo Azul
Be amazed at this cenote at the base of a 75-meter cliff that forms a significant part of Scape Park. Soak in the views of the beautiful turquoise waters that attract crowds in large numbers. Hoyo Azul is a natural phenomenon that is filled with crystal-clear water. Do not forget to bring a swimming suit to bathe in the water.

Feel relaxed in the serene environment tucked away in a small area. Explore the number of characterful independent cafes frequented by locals, other than stalls selling art and gift shops. Relax under the palms with a glass of pina colada and lobster.
Day 6:Heading to Macao Beach
Witness plenty of locals at Macao Beach, Punta Cana's public beach. It's a famous surfing spot and was listed by UNESCO recently as one of the Caribbean's best beaches. Enjoy the views of the clear waters and gorgeous white sand that's bordered by tall palm trees. Following that, enjoy a luxurious dinner at a premium restaurant before retiring to your resort for the night.
Day 7: Enjoying Saona Island
Today, visit Saona Island, an unperturbed island off the coast of Punta Cana. If you wish to escape the tourist crowds, then this is the paradise you need. Saona Island is a government-protected nature reserve and is part of the East National Park. Throughout the island, discover wildlife, from birds to a beach loaded with starfish. If you are lucky enough, witness turtles laying their eggs during the nesting season.

You can try out windsurfing, parasailing, or simply a dip in the shallow natural pools separated by reefs.
Day 10: Relaxing at Altos de Chavon
Making your way to a duplicate Italian-style village high above the Chavon River valley is certainly one of the most unexpected things to do in Punta Cana. Altos de Chavon is an arts and culture project including a cultural center, a Roman amphitheater, a renowned design school, and an archaeological museum. Its distinctive brick-and-coral architecture makes it ideal for some easy walk through the gardens and archways. Soak in the stunning views of the river valley is worth the journey.

It is home to some of the world's biggest celebrities, including former Yankee Alex Rodriguez, Red Sox player David Ortiz, and superstars Shakira and Jennifer Lopez, to name a few. Enjoy a more relaxed and shorter excursion here compared to these day-long adventures in the main city. Embark on an adventurous trip as Scape Park offers boat cruises as an add-on to admission. Most beaches, such as Juanillo Beach, are open to the public. Other than that, you can also check out the Marina at Cap Cana. Cap Cana is also famous for its golf courses, where you might run into some friendly retired MLB players.
