All Cabarete Tours & Excursions in 2026

Amazing experience from start to finish! My boyfriend and I absolutely loved it. We stopped in Puerto Plata on our cruise and Javier and his team were very timely. We actually got to the meeting spot 15 minutes early at 8:45am and Sol was already there and found us before we found her. We also met up with the photographer Germán on the way to the car and then Javier drove us to the falls--if it is your first experience on Dominican roads hold on tight LOL. Once at the entrance to the waterfalls national park, only Germán continued with us as well as two guides who worked at the park (Flacko Mambo and Alexis--if you get the chance to have them as your guides you will be in great hands). The hike up to the waterfalls is a bit long but we enjoy hiking so it wasn't too bad at all, they will keep telling you it is only 5 more Dominican minutes haha! We loved the waterfalls and it was such a fun and cool experience, definitely wear good water shoes with a rubber sole because it will be rocky. After the waterfalls they took us to a buffet lunch which was so delicious. Germán came around after we finished eating to ask if we wanted to buy the photos/videos he took of us and it was $60 for the two of us (not sure if pricing is different for solo travelers or families) and he accepted payment in multiple ways. We paid via paypal and he also helped us connect to the wifi since we didn't have data lol. I would definitely recommend getting the photos that they take of you since we didn't bring our phones and it really isn't recommended to take any of your valuables with you (you can keep them in the car). We did have our phones in waterproof cases but opted to leave them in the car and are so glad we did because one guy at the waterfalls with a different tour group lost his phone in the water after it broke off the lanyard. HUGE shout out to our guide Alexis though because he dived under and was able to find it but you might not be so lucky if it happens to you (someone in our group lost their apple watch, rip). In case you forget to take something off though, our guide Flacko had a waterproof bag you could put your stuff in before we reached the waterfalls so that was also nice. After lunch we were driven back and at the port by 1pm with more than enough time to spare before our all-aboard time. All in all, the experience was super active and fun, the included lunch was delicious and filling, and the cost of the tour + photos + tips we gave still cost us less than if we booked the excursion with our cruise so we are very happy about that. Javier and Sol were great, and we especially loved talking with our photographer Germán on the hike back. Oh I forgot to mention on the hike back as well, Alexis picked a ripe cacao pod and cracked it open for us to taste the fruit inside so that was also a fun first experience too! Thank you guys so much for giving us such a great experience!!!

This one was super relaxing, depending on where you are staying it could be up to a 2hr ride but when you arrive to the beach you are then taken on a boat to a sand bar (Paradise Island) in the middle of the ocean, takes 2 min to walk around the whole "island", they give you tasty fruits and snorkeling gear, really cool fish and some big ones too. You can also just relax on the beach. After you are taken through a mangrove where it's a maze to get to a pretty central point but the way out was the fun part, top speed motorboat whipping through the maze that is the mangrove till you make it put into the open ocean. Then they take you to a Dominican restaurant where I had the best fried chicken probably ever. They stop a cigar spot that makes the cigars and they talk you through the process. If you get the guide named Mendy you are in for an educational and fun experience my guy speaks 4 languages fluently.

Our Host Joseph was the greatest and so kind. He was also very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of detals about the destination. We had such yummy food including Chicharon, fresh fruit,hot chocolate, coffe, tea, and an authentic DR breakfast plus ice cream! This is an absolute must do.

Don't come on this adventure if you don't like to drink and party because your glass will never be empty and the tunes won't stop. Nah but seriously its fun if you don't like to do that either. Took us to two spots for some snorkeling. The BBQ on board was legit from ribs to chicken wings. Would do it again!!

This tour was a 10/10!!! Our tour guide, Nelson, from Edgar Tours was AMAZING and then some! He was very informative and made everything about our travel experience in DR above and beyond special! From the very beginning our experience with this tour company was simple and very clear and communicative! And the waterfalls! WOW, AMAZING! Their guides and photographers were over the top! Highly recommend!

If you like cigars or want to buy cigars as a gift for someone who does, then this is the place to come. We had a factory tour and the owner, Austin passionately explained the whole process from beginning to end to us. He took two hours out of his day to spend with us and make sure we were happy. The cigars are the best I’ve tried (better than most of the well known Cubans out there). They have a range to suit most tastes and they are all hand rolled with meticulous attention to detail. Would recommend to anyone. Thank you for an amazing experience Austin!

The experience was fun. The ride was on time, was greeted by the tour guide, who was friendly from the start. Picked up a few guest before we arrived to the destination. Upon arrival we were greeted by the handler(s). Everyone was personal and made the experience one to remember.

This excursion was exactly what we hoped for. We got to see some of the major sights of the city, and got to sample rum, chocolate, and cigars which my husband thoroughly enjoyed. Unfortunately the cable car was under renovation so we were unable to do that, but Jose made sure we were well taken care of and drove us around the city like a pro. We would definitely recommend him and this private tour.
