Book this if
- You want to reach Conchi without driving the track yourself
- You would rather ride and listen than walk the north coast
- You want the Indian caves, Dos Playa and the Ayo rocks in the same half day
- You want lunch built into the morning departure
Skip this if
- You cannot manage about 100 steps down to the pool and back up
- You are pregnant, or have spinal or cardiovascular trouble, which the operator advises against
- You want the park entrance included in the ticket rather than paid at check-in the Arikok National Park Jeep Safari fits better
Why our team recommends it
This is the riding version of the Conchi day, not the walking one. An open-air 4x4 carries you across Arikok to the Ayo rocks, the Indian caves, the Fontein garden and Dos Playa, and down to the Natural Pool, where volcanic rock shelters the water while the swell breaks over the far rim. Swimming depends on the sea on the day and nobody can promise it. Two things worth knowing before you book: the Arikok entrance fee is $25 per person at check-in on top of the ticket, and only the morning departure includes lunch.
Prefer to reach Conchi under your own steam? Our guide walks through all four ways in, including the hike from Daimari and what a self-drive 4x4 really involves: Is the Natural Pool worth it, and how to get there.
Pro tip
You ride, you do not hike: the walking on this tour is the stops themselves, plus about 100 steps down to the pool and back up. Bring a towel, swimwear, a change of clothes and a driver's licence, and budget the $25 park fee per person at check-in. The operator does not take passengers from Carnival cruise ships.
