Ride a 4x4 ATV from a Punta Cana ranch through dirt roads and tropical farmland, stop for coffee, chocolate, rum, mamajuana, and tea, then swim in a freshwater cave and visit Macao Beach. Guides such as Felix and Luis Miguel add plenty of personality, but expect short riding time, sales pitches, and mixed equipment conditions.
