We spent a week in the DR and did out best to try some cool, new and out of the way things - but 27 Waterfalls with Iguana Mama was the best of the bunch! The trip from Cabrera was relatively long (2 hrs in a car), but so incredibly worth it. The swim up river in the flowing aqua... More

We were looking for adventure, real Dominican culture, lovely accommodations, and great service, and Iguana Mama delivered. Michael organized four days of activity in perfect sequence: downhill bike riding through mountain villages, ziplining in a monkey sanctuary; horseback riding along a wild beach; and two canyon waterfall excursions that are not to be missed. We're active travelers and hikers, but... More

We went on the 27 Waterfalls Tour. Let me just say you really need to be physically fit to do this tour. Make sure you bring good sturdy sneakers or shoes to walk in, you'll be walking over alot of small rocks that kill your feet after a while. Our guides were terrific, we were exhausted at the end of... More

We had read a lot of positive reviews and were not disappointed! We booked a package with Iguana Mama, sort of a customized Mama knows best tour. Everything was very well organized (they also booked the hotel for us) and great fun. Carlos was an excellent guide! They may not be the cheapest, but they deliver quality and you get... More

Everything was on schedule and as advertised. Completely professional and the tour guides were extremely friendly and overly accomodating. They even gave us great recommendations on dining and accomodations. More

We took the Ciguapa Falls Cascading and it was so much fun. Professional guides, safe and fun. The wife of one of the guide made us a traditional Dominican lunch - excellent meal. I recommend hiring a donkey for the hike out. You'll have to walk for 25 min up anyway, but save yourself another 30-45 min uphill walk. More

We were looking for adventure. My husband and I are in our sixties and researched places to go and things to do. We decided on Iguana Mama. It appeared that it would meet our needs. In the past we have had disappointments when outfitters failed to deliver and I must admit we do have very high expectations and can be... More

My girlfriend and her family did the Canyoning Supremacy tour and it was awesome. We had to leave before doing the final section because we had a 3 hour drive back to Las Terrenas but if I'm back in the Dominican the first thing on my list will be to go back on this tour with Iguana Mama. The guides... More

We spent a week with Iguana Mama. Six days and six tours all great. We started with mountain biking. I and my three grown children bike often but this was a real challenge. Off road through mud and fording rivers. The guides were great. Lunch at Blue Moon was our best meal. We did 27 fall it was beautiful and... More

My girlfriend and I went on the white water rafting trip. They picked us up in our van from the Iberostar Costa Dorada, then drove two hours to the base camp. We had a delicious breakfast and met our tour guide Jose Miguel. As there were only two of us, Mario and Victor joined us and the trip turned out... More
