Hello!
My parents are coming out from the UK to visit me soon, which I am really looking forward to. However, I'm having a bit of trouble deciding what to do with them here. They are not at all interested in lying on the beach, and they don't cope very well with the heat, so one of my ideas was a trip to Jarabacoa to enjoy the cooler temperatures there.
I've booked to stay at Hotel Gran Jimenoa, so I know we can enjoy sitting by the river there, and I know we can also drive then walk to Salto Jimenoa and Salto Baiguate, but do you have any other tips or ideas for things to do there? My parents don't want to do adventure sports (even horseriding is too "risky") and they don't play golf, but they are only in their 50s and very fit and healthy, and they do enjoy light hiking. Does anyone know of any easy-moderate trails in the area, or more specifically how to find a guide who could go with us, since I'm sure we'd get lost otherwise. Any other restaurants/cafes with good views? Something I haven't thought of at all?
Any ideas will be much appreciated.
