Iguana Mama is a very good company to utilize if you’re looking for an outdoor adventure. We initially booked three activities (e.g. The 27 Waterfalls Tour, Monkey Zip Line, and Catamaran Cruise), but ended up canceling the Monkey Zip Line due to the weather. We were disappointed, but at least Iguana Mama was professional enough to refund our money without... More

This river adventure includes hiking the river and canyons, rappelling down falls, jumping from cliffs. My son and I went and had a blast. The guides were fantastic, and the setting was magical. Add the adventure/adrenaline aspect of the cliff jumps and rappelling the falls and I wouldn't want to miss this tour. The tour guides were very safety conscious... More

Through TripAdvisor and a recommendation, I contacted Iguana Mama (Michael) months prior to our late March, 2012 visit to Puerta Plata. We had a large family trip planned and I asked him for suggestions. We agreed on the Waterfall and mountain bike tours as a good representation of their services. We were picked up promptly at our hotel by Juan... More

My husband and I have been traveling together for 20 yrs, and we have never had a single tour company anywhere that comes close to the experience we had with Iguana Mama in Cabarete this past week. In addition to our adventure tours, we were coordinating a large container shipment of baseball equipment for the children in the area. Making... More

A group of 4 of us signed up with Iguana Mama to do both the Waterfall Cascading and White Water rafting. Due to our brief schedule in Cabarete, we were able to work with the owner Michael to accommodate our schedule. The Waterfall tour was the highlight of the trip and one of the best adventure experiences I've ever had.... More

We’ve all heard it before: If all your friends jumped off a cliff, would you do it too? Normally, this dreaded phrase is spoken just before you’re about to do something awesome. If all your friends jumped off a cliff, would you do it too? Before you answer that question check out this excerpt from the Ciguapa Falls page of... More

My wife and I visited 27 Waterfalls our first morning in Cabarete, and loved everything about it! Iguana Mama is a great tour group -- they picked up up at our hotel, gave us a breakfast sandwich on the way to 27 Waterfalls and were fun and informative every step of the way. The tour itself is actually no walk... More

Iguana Mama's white water rafting trip to Jarabacoa was really fantastic!! You have to confirm the day before. You need to pack a towel, change of clothes, shoes, bug spray, sunscreen, $40 tip for group of 3-4 and $20 to buy the DVD. There are NO lockers,but bags are locked in van. They pick you up at your hotel and... More

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
