# Haitises National Park with Paraiso Caño Hondo & Montaña Redonda

**Guidekin's take:** Three stops in one long day on the northeast coast: a riverboat through the mangroves and caves of Los Haitises, lunch at the Paraíso Caño Hondo eco lodge and the swings of Montaña Redonda, with entry fees, a guide and round trip transport. Bring repellent and cash for tips. 4.65 from 40 reviews at €144 per person.

In our comparison: #13 of 17 in Day Trips, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Nature lovers this is definitely the tour for you! Located in the remote northeast coast of the Dominican Republic, Los Haitises National Park was established in 1976 and contains a number of different habitats and consequently has a great diversity of mammals and birds, including some rare species. 

Combine three different tours in one: you’ll visit the most beautiful National Park of the Dominican Republic, Los Haitises; you’ll have lunch at one of the best ecological destinations in the world: Caño Hondo; to finish you will climb the new popular photo spot Montaña Redonda and enjoy its amazing views. 

If you’re looking for spectacular views and unbelievable pictures this excursion cannot be missed!
