This tour was absolutely fantastic, cannot recommend it enough. We were picked up at the meeting spot and jumped into a well air-conditioned van. The two tour guides, Edwin and Francisco, were very friendly, and answered any and all questions we had. We also had some questions prior to the Tour beginning, and they were quickly answered via the app.
As described on the website, the tour included multiple areas in Puerto Plata, and the tour guides safely navigated through various areas in the city. Francisco was also kind enough to take photos of the couples on the tour, wherever they wanted photos taken. Cold waters were also readily available to us, which were extremely appreciated.
In our particular minivan, there were only four of us, so it was easy and enjoyable getting to know the tour guides as well as the other two passengers with us. It definitely made for a nicer form of transport and seeing the area, as opposed to 50+ people jammed together on a bus. The only downside is the walking trek from the ship to the main road, which is where you will meet the tour guides. In the beating sun, it’s a bit of a challenge. Make sure you wear comfortable walking shoes, and maybe take a water with you. But even if you forget a water, you will be offered a nice cold one upon arriving at the meet location.
I would not hesitate whatsoever recommending this to our two family and friends who are visiting Puerto Plata in the DR. Thanks so much Edwin and Francisco!!
