If you want this experience, come to my house and I’ll put you in a side by side on my family’s property after a rain in the cow pasture. That’s literally all it was. The area was very poor, there were no “breathtaking views” and the “working plantation” was us sitting while listening to a sales pitch.

“Pedal to the metal”? “Fast as you can”? No, we were in a line only going as fast as the lead car (the tour guide). He took us through a very poor village where children jumped on our carts and begged for money.

The “hidden geological wonder” was nice but you had to weave through a group of pushy sales people to get there and back. Some of us ate some chicken that was for sale and got really sick. Oh and about halfway down to the water there was a guy that put a lizard on your back and asked for money. Didn’t ask for permission first.

The buggy’s were almost broken down and had to be repaired several times during the trip. And the tour guides and people at the base camp spoke broken English and were very hard to understand.

Save the money and do something else.

The driver was friendly and picked us up at our hotel on an open air bus . It was about a 20 minute scenic drive to the buggies. Our buggy guides spoke good English and was very friendly and helpful. They did an amazing job.
Make sure you have close toed shoes or you will have to buy $15 water shoes. Make sure you have Sunglasses that covers your eyes well and a bandana you cover your mouth. A shirt can be used to cover your mouth too.
You will get very dirty, and if it rained recently, you will get very very dirty. I tried not to get too dirty but it was not possible.
It was fun but I didn't pack the right clothes and shoes for bugging. Bring clothes that can get very dirty. Bring a plastic bag for you items you bring in the car. They also have lockers for rent $5. You will drive through some neighborhoods and the kids wave and have there hand out for money. On other buggy trips the tour guides would have candy for us to buy to give to the kids. They kids would love if you bring candy, coins,or dollars. They will also be selling flowers too. We had to slow down for donkeys in the road. Our first stop at a scenic canyon area the tour guide gave us a bottle of water and took pictures of everyone. They also had photographers taking pictures along the way for sale later.
We came back to another Parton the buggy camp to take a quick rinse off, multiple samples Mama juana alcohol and coffee, also many other spice samples. Here you could buy any of these items along with paintings and jewelry.
On we went to our last top at the Cave to take a plunge into the water. This was Cool too! This was a chance to cool off and rinse the mud off. This was also a food and souvenir stop. The water in the cave is deep, so you can rent a life vest for $5 if you can't swim.
I gave a 4 star because buggies were a little beaten up. The roads are very rough so I understand why. There were a few other buggy companies that had nicer looking cars. Other than that, it was worth it.
