Experience 360° views at Montaña Redonda and unwind on the untouched Playa Esmeralda in this full-day tour from Santo Domingo.

About this tour

Leave Santo Domingo behind and set off on a full-day journey to discover two of the Dominican Republic’s most stunning natural spots: Montaña Redonda and Playa Esmeralda. Your adventure begins with an early morning hotel pickup and a drive along the scenic eastern coast to reach the town of Miches. Once there, you’ll ascend Montaña Redonda, a hilltop known for its breathtaking 360° panoramic views over mountains, lagoons, and coastline. At the summit, you’ll have time to enjoy its famous giant swings, hammocks, and “flying broom” props, perfect for unforgettable photos. For the more adventurous, a short zipline ride is available — not extreme, but fun for a snapshot. At midday, a Dominican-style buffet lunch will be served right at the top of Montaña Redonda, letting you dine with one of the most spectacular views in the country. After lunch, continue to Playa Esmeralda, one of the last untouched beaches in the Dominican Republic. This pristine stretch of sand offers turquoise waters and a peaceful atmosphere away from the crowds. To make your stay comfortable, we set up a private beach station with shade, chairs, and a cooler with cold drinks. Spend the afternoon swimming, sunbathing, or simply enjoying the tranquil beauty before heading back to Santo Domingo in the evening.
