The Waterfall Route is a series of 7 different waterfalls along the way, ending with Pailon del Diablo (the Devil’s Cauldron), a world famous series of three waterfalls set in a beautiful gorge. If you’ve brave (and flexible!) you can clamber through a series of smaller staircases (aka tunnels – we had to crouch to get through!) to get very close to the top of the falls for a more up close view.
How we spent a week in Portugal to see a variety of scenery and activities.
The opportunity to view such a beautiful and remote part of Portugal was a privilege, and I can’t wait to go back again soon!

New Orleans far exceeded our expectations, and we certainly had a wonderful long weekend there.

Your guide to the most commonly frequently asked questions about Fathom’s impact cruise to the Dominican Republic!
Don’t think of the ship’s purpose as “volunteer activities.” Think of it as a chance to interact with the local population. Because this is how the local population lives. Think of it as meeting your new Dominican friends… who happen to work at a reforestation nursery or in a school that needs English tutors, and your new friend has asked you along to help for the day.
