You are basically hiring a non-English speaking driver to take you to these spots. If that is all you require than you will enjoy the trip. But if you want anything explained in English, you won't get it.

This was not a tour as booked but rather a comfortable taxi ride. Carlos was very pleasant and a good driver but had no English and was not able to add any information or explanation. He was out of his depth as a guide. One of the stops in the itinerary was unknown to him. We had specified an English speaking tour and the trip was only tolerable due to my husband's Spanish knowledge. No drinking water was supplied as specified. Higuey basilica was very impressive however.

Une honte, nous n'avons pas fait la totalité de l'excursion, le guide ne savait même pas de quoi il parlait. Il s'est endormi pendant l'excursion ! Le pire le guide nous a indiqué que c'était pas la peine de prendre des photos qu'il nous prendrait lui. A la fin de l'excursion il a refusé de nous donner les photos sauf contre 150$ !!!! A fuir !!! Grosse arnaque
