Punta Cana excursions with kids, for couples and for groups
The same excursion can be perfect for a group of friends and a mistake with a four-year-old. This guide sorts the Jhoraji Tours excursions by who you are traveling with, with the minimum ages and restrictions stated on each tour page.
Prices per person taken from each tour page on November 10, 2026. Check the price on the linked page before booking.
Which Punta Cana excursions can I do with kids?
Many, as long as you check the minimum age on each tour page first: 6 for the horseback ride and the zipline, 8 for Jhoraji Adventure and Hacienda Tuko, and 10 for parasailing and Scuba Doo.

Excursions whose tour page states no age, such as Monkey Adventure or the Party Boat, have no minimum age. Babies do not pay; for now there is no reduced price for children.
With small children, choose short excursions of 3 to 5 hours and avoid the ones with a 6:00 am pickup.
What are the best Punta Cana excursions for couples?
The small-group or private-transport ones: Saona Island VIP (US$120), Ojos Indígenas with private transport (US$120) and Montaña Redonda with a horseback ride on Limón Beach (US$82).
Saona VIP takes a maximum of 20 people to uncrowded beaches, with snorkeling and lunch by the sea. Ojos Indígenas is 3 quiet hours among freshwater lagoons. Montaña Redonda combines the views from the swings with a horseback ride along the shore.
For something short, the horseback ride on Macao Beach lasts 3 hours and costs US$55.
What can a group of friends do in Punta Cana?
The Party Boat (US$60) for an afternoon on a catamaran with an open bar, Buggy and catamaran (US$95) to combine land and sea in one day, and Coco Bongo (US$90) at night.
For groups looking for adrenaline, Jhoraji Adventure (US$95) brings together a cave, ziplines, buggy and horses in one day. Sport fishing (US$110) also works well with friends, with a morning or afternoon shift.
For a large group, it is best to write by WhatsApp before booking and arrange pickup for everyone.
What is there to do in Punta Cana at night?
The best-known night out is Coco Bongo: a show with acrobatics, music and tribute acts, followed by a party with a DJ. With Jhoraji Tours it costs US$90, with Regular entry and transfers from your hotel.
Schedule on the tour page: pickup between 7:00 and 7:30 pm, arrival at 8:00 pm, show and party from 8:30 pm to 12:30 am, and back at your hotel between 1:30 and 2:00 am.
There are Regular, Gold Member and VIP tickets, and drinks depend on the package. Bring ID and wear casual clothes and closed shoes. It is recommended for ages 18 and over.
Do not schedule an early-pickup excursion for the next morning.
