Hotel pickup is available across Punta Cana. The outing lasts about three to four hours, though much of that time is spent at stops rather than driving.

“It was overall disappointing. When we arrived we waited over an hour to start the activity. They tried to sell us an “add-on” of $50 per person to be able to spend a bit extra time on the ATV.
