Itinerary
Day 1
Half-day guided safari through Roseau and nearby natural highlights, ending with a short karaoke session.
Meet & Scenic Drive through Roseau (hotel pickup)
Pickup in central Roseau followed by a short scenic drive through the historic city to introduce Dominica’s buildings and coastal views before heading into the rainforest.
Tips from local experts:
- Be ready at your confirmed pickup location 5 minutes before the scheduled time to keep the tour on schedule.
- Carry a small daypack with sunscreen and sunglasses — the drive includes short open-air viewpoints.
- If you’re joining from a cruise ship, confirm the pickup point on arrival with your agent to avoid delays.
Trafalgar Falls — short walk & viewpoint
Visit Trafalgar Falls’ twin cascades (the “Mother and Father” falls). A short, moderate walk rewards you with close views and photo opportunities of the falls and rainforest surroundings.
Tips from local experts:
- Wear sturdy, non-slip shoes — the trail has uneven, wet surfaces and some short steps.
- Bring a light towel or quick-dry top if you plan to get close to the mist from the falls.
- Follow the local guide’s instructions and stay on marked paths; do not climb wet rocks near the cascade.
Wotten Waven — Sulphur springs visit
Short visit to the sulphur-rich area at Wotten Waven to learn about the island’s volcanic activity and natural hot springs. Time allocated for photos and brief explanation of local geology and traditions.
Tips from local experts:
- Sulphur areas can smell strongly of sulfur — bring a light scarf if you are sensitive to odors.
- Avoid touching spring water or mud directly; follow the guide for any safe bathing opportunities (if offered).
- Keep electronics in sealed bags while near steam vents to protect them from moisture.
Botanical Gardens — stroll and photo stop
A relaxed stroll through Roseau’s Botanical Gardens to see native and exotic plant species and enjoy a short rest in shaded paths and gardens.
Tips from local experts:
- There is limited shade in portions of the gardens; keep water with you and refill before the visit.
- Stick to paved paths where possible to minimize contact with insects or damp ground.
- If you need seating or restroom stops, ask the guide so time can be managed for the next viewpoints.
Morne Bruce — panoramic viewpoint of Roseau and harbor
Drive up to Morne Bruce for panoramic photos over Roseau and the Caribbean Sea; time for group photos and a brief interpretation of Roseau’s layout and port activity.
Tips from local experts:
- Morne Bruce has limited parking and some steep paths — wear comfortable shoes and be prepared for short stair sections.
- Bring a light jacket if it’s breezy at the lookout; mornings can be cooler at elevation.
- Plan 10–15 minutes for photos — the guide will manage time to ensure the karaoke session follows on schedule.
Concluding Karaoke session (15 minutes)
Return toward Roseau and wrap up the tour with a short, fun 15-minute karaoke session — a chance for the group to celebrate the day with music.
Tips from local experts:
- The karaoke is brief (15 minutes); nominate a small number of participants in advance if your group wants to perform.
- If you prefer not to sing, stay nearby for photos and to enjoy complimentary rum punch provided for adults.
- Keep personal belongings with you during the karaoke stop; space is limited and the session is timed to keep the overall schedule.
