What a wonderful experience, my little toddler had an awesome time. Also, is the adult we had a great time. The timing of the tour was just right about 4hours, so the kids don’t get too tired and starts to feel bored. We went there in the morning about 9:20 am. Weather was on our side , it was raining a bit which was great. Otherwise, it would have been very humid and disgusting because the entire tour is outdoor and in the field. We were greeted and they gave us the bracelet. Then, our bus arrived . We did 15 activities and spent about 5-12 minutes each. Started off with riding a swing over a valley, and standing on a glass tiles over a valley too. Take some pictures and then the day started. We fed the goats and pigs, milked the cow, watched a short horse show, got close to monkeys and took some pictures. Did a horse back riding for a short distance. Got a ride on a bamboo boat, and we were offered to swim in the water if we wanted to but didn’t. Amazing experience especially if you have little ones. One thing to consider wear light clothing and water shoe or a shoe that you could walk around with in the mud. You are allowed to take pictures of everything except the monkey part, which was very disappointing. However, a photographer was with us from the beginning until the monkey activity was done, but we weren’t sure how much we will be charged for the pictures. After we finished the day. The package cost for all the pictures in digital format was $30 US, which we didn’t mind but if they told us from the beginning we would have allowed the photographer to take more photos of us. Also, it would been nice for him to stay all the way through. This is a suggestion for the park management.

A really fantastic excursion, I have two kids (4 and 6) and this id about as perfect as you can get for an excursion.Pickup was in a nice AC van. Don’t bring your stroller, I did t and just stored it at their front desk. They have an open air bus at the park that takes you from activity to activity. Really fun to feed all the animals. The staff is great, prices on snack and drinks and photos are reasonable, Tip the helpers because they do a really great job making sure everyone has a great time. Animals seem well taken care of and treated nicely. Perfect family outing!

Extremely worth it!!! For the price you get to do so many activities, many animals and photo opportunities. The price for all pictures isn’t bad either. We did the 1PM booking and we basically had a private session, just one family was with us as well.

Nice for families with kids. Weather wasn't great when we went, but it was still pretty interesting. No cameras allowed in monkey house so if you want pictures you have to pay $30.00 US. We went on Dec. 14th and were told that they would be available in 24/28 hours. Still no pictures. Very disappointed.

This was the only excursion we booked while in Punta Cana. I would do it again because it was an amazing experience! The fact that you can feed a baby goat and hug a Brahma bull was thrilling. What a perfect day and once in a lifetime experience. I am giving it 3/5 stars review because they have a photographer follow you around all day with the intent to sell you photos at the end of the day. That's awesome so you don't miss a photo opportunity and you can just enjoy yourself. You pay the fee (which I did) and you can download the pictures the next day. Well that didn't happen the next day or the next. I sent an email asking for help with no response. Tried again once I got back to the states and website no longer available. It wasn't the money I lost but the photos I was looking forward to sharing. Go to the park but take your own photos!

If you love animals you will adore this! It was such an amazing day, paced really well with our tour guide who offered to take pictures for us constantly as well! This is an INCREDIBLE value because you meet and feed so many animals AND ride horses too! Other options would cost the same or more just for a fraction of what we did here.
Make sure to bring money to tip the bus drivers and tour guides. Also wear sneakers and comfy clothes because there is some walking that is uphill to some of the gorgeous views, etc. Also, keep in mind the description may say that it’s “so what you what when you want” but this actually isn’t the case. It is paced and guided through each activity/exhibit where you will get on and off a bus at times that takes you throughout the vast property. Totally fine though!!! THANK YOU GUYS!

We had a great afternoon at Ecopark. July was an awesome guide! We thought we would wander around at our own pace, but you actually go on a bus and they bring you to each area for 5-10 min mostly. This meant you saw the whole park in about 4 hours, but if you wanted to spend more time in one area you might be disappointed.

One of the few attractions near Punta Cana which is not all about the sea! Transport was provided to and from our hotel within the ticket price for a half day visit. We had our own tour guide (English/Spanish speaking) and tour bus in a very small group of just 6. The animals are extremely well cared for and you can get up close and feed/stroke most. The animals included goats, impala, deer, monkeys, piglets, horses, bulls and guinea pigs/rabbits. There is an interesting horse display and you later get the opportunity to milk a cow too.
My favourite activity was going inside the monkey enclosure where we got to hold small bowls of food and the monkeys would climb across to join you and take from the bowls, so dainty and cute.
Down at the river you could canoe, sun bathe, swim or be punted down the river on a custom made raft, following which we got to see the amazing viewpoint across Punta Cana where they have swings with an infinity view.
We also got to see a traditional plantation house which was very interesting. Whilst there, the park's photographer was on hand to snap away but they did not pressure you to buy the photos at the end plus you can take your own photos.
The visit was just the right length, the tour guide Jonathan excellent company and this was an amazing place to see animals in a natural habitat.
Can't recommend enough.

Could not recommend this place enough. The animals were all well kept lots of space to play and they were so clean and so gentle!! Better than any animal sanctuary in England. We firstly went and sat on a beautiful swing looking over some insanely amazing views!
We then fed and held the goats, fed baby pigs, fed the all the different types deers. We then went onto seeing the horses, donkeys and zebras..then had a fantastic horse show with all the different horses. Then we were allowed to feed to the horse! Then from there we fed some orstriches. Then met all the different bulls up close and was able to stroke them!! Then cuddles with the small fluffy animals 🥰 from there we went to the Dominican house which was amazing, there we tried coca beans which was so cool. They then supplied us with different types of fruit and snacks and real coca bean hot chocolate and real coffee bean coffee. From there we went on a horse ride which was fantastic especially with the amazing views from the grounds. Then went to the river and was able to canoe, paddle board, swim or boat ride. We were lucky enough to have some horses come to the river!!
Oh and we all got to milk a cow!!🤣 which was a blast!!!!
We have a 3 year old little girl and this was perfect for her, lots of shaded areas and getting up close to animals which you'd never be able to do was just amazing!!!
All the staff were very friendly, spoke great English, lots of opitunitys to have food and refreshments. We felt very safe the whole time.
Thankyou for a brilliant experience 👏🏼

I can't say enough great things about this tour. Bling Bling was an amazing tour guide, extremely friendly and knowledgeable. You get to do and see SO much and it never felt rushed. It's absolutely beautiful and so much fun. Horesback riding is a must do. Even my 5&8yo enjoyed it, and none of us have ever ridden. All of the staff were friendly and they are so hard working. They took pictures of our family with our own phones and were never pressured to purchase the ones taken by the photographer, although I wish I had now. I highly recommend this tour (even over Monkeyland, which we did too.)
