About ADOPETUR

With the purpose of strengthening the complementary tourism offering —including excursions, theme parks, adventure tourism, and ecotourism— the leading operators in the sector created the Dominican Association of Tourist Parks and Excursions (ADOPETUR).

ADOPETUR was founded after years of collaboration among various industry stakeholders who have promoted strategies to position adventure tourism and ecotourism as key and differentiating elements in the global destination selection process. The Association encourages unity and cooperation among its members, promoting high-quality services and memorable experiences, always guided by principles of sustainability, natural resource preservation, and support for the economic and social development of the communities where we operate.

We are convinced that, in order to sustain the growth of tourism in the Dominican Republic, it is essential to develop new hotel projects and expand the complementary tourism offering. Only in this way can we meet growing demand, diversify destinations, and continue strengthening the tourism sector, the main driving force of our economy.
