Take the wheel of an off-road vehicle and drive through the countryside, stopping along the way for tastings at a farm and to browse a museum with exhibits showcasing the indigenous Taino people. While riding through the lush landscape in a caravan of 4x4 vehicles, you will enjoy spectacular views of Isabel de Torres Mountain, which looms high above Puerto Plata. Upon arriving at the farm, you will learn how many local fruits and coffee are grown, harvested and processed. You will also sample many of these products, which will enhance your understanding of their allure. More scenic vistas await you on the ride to La Confuencia GalerÃa Etnográfica, a museum full of ancient artifacts that promote the culture and history of the Dominican Republic with a special emphasis on the Taino. You may discover how they emigrated to the island of Hispaniola and how life changed following the arrival of Christopher Columbus.
