So much fun book it now!!
such a fun experience!! this excursion had three stops with the dune buggies, first stop was at this place where there are a few vendors and dominican coffee to try, second stop is the beach so make sure to wear your bathing suit, you will want to take a dip to wash off and refresh yourself, third stop was this river you can swim in where locals go for their cookouts, this was my favorite stop out of all of them. I recommend bringing a bandana for your face, and if you have ski goggles id bring those too, lots of dirt while your driving. Our guide Junior was very friendly and made our experience enjoyable!

Great Mountain/City Experience
Our Puerto Plata City Tour with Mountain Views was one of the highlights of our cruise! The scenery was absolutely breathtaking. The drive up the mountain was filled with tropical plants, colorful flowers, and incredible views that made the trip worthwhile even before reaching the top. Once we arrived we enjoyed the views of the city and shores below which provided some of our favorite photos from the day.
What made this excursion exceptional was our guide, Juan Carlos. He spoke excellent English, making it easy to understand everything he shared. His knowledge of Puerto Plata, its history, culture, and daily life was impressive, and he answered every question with enthusiasm and detail.
Juan Carlos went above and beyond to personalize the tour. As we talked throughout the day, he learned what interested us and made a point to show us additional places and point out things that matched those interests. It never felt like a scripted tour—it felt like exploring Puerto Plata with a knowledgeable local who genuinely wanted us to have the best possible experience.
I highly recommend this excursion. Be sure to ask for Juan Carlos if you have the chance—you won't be disappointed!

This was one of our...
This was one of our favorite excursions! We had such a great time and everyone in our group had a blast. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and answered all of our questions. Everything was well organized, and the dune buggy ride was a lot of fun. We would definitely recommend this excursion.

Do I!t!!! Worth it!!!
Best excursion. We are not super fit people so the hike was a workout but totally doable with the breaks. Water was beautiful and such a memorable trip. We were one of the first groups out that day so the water was clear. Would definitely do it again and again. Just wish we had more time to slow down and enjoy longer. Guides were amazing.

50 year old guys loved being muddy boys again
This was an amazing excursion and we booked privately (here). If you did through the cruise lines it was about 2x what we paid. We all received the same services. The only hiccup is to make sure you know what port you are arriving in and where they begin. There was some confusion but they took care of us and made it all come together. It was a rush and bit of a panic but it was 100% worth the activity. We were sloppy and covered in mud. Every bit what I hoped it would be.

Dune buddy experience
My husband and I loved the Dune Buggy Excursion. We got to ride dirty while enjoying the beautiful landscape. We also got to sit by the beach and get in the water to wash off the dirt. Transport was on time to and from the excursion. My only advice is to bring safety goggles with you to protect your eyes from the dirt and to bring a handkerchief to protect your face.

Beautiful jungle, great ride, DOGS TO PET
Had a great time! A solid ride through the beautiful jungle, some mud, and a Dominican village. Everyone was very friendly. Lots of nice dogs running around at the facility to pet. Great communication ahead of time via Lotta. Excursion was not too long, not too short. Most of the ride was at low speed, but still fun. A great way to experience one of the most beautiful Caribbean islands. Will def do again!

Family Buggy Adventure
Prepare to get wet and dirty! It is quite the adventure and fun for the entire family. We stopped at a gift shop that, even if some thought was a little pricey, was worth it to us. We tried the local chocolate and mamajuana and decided to make a few purchases; in the end it’s about supporting the local community. I would book with this group again in the future.
Our driver, Alfredo, was a delight! He kept us entertained with music and stories of his family. A very down to earth guy and representative of the company.

ATV experience in Puerto Plata, D.R.
ATV staff were friendly and knowledgeable. They treated us with care from beginning to end. The guy in charge spoke English. The views riding around the island were so beautiful. We also stopped at a local beach that had food/drink and souvenir stands. Be prepared to get dusty and a little wet. Take the goggles and mouth covering when offered. Wear close toed water shoes. Overall the ATV experience was a lot of fun! I highly recommend it!

Wonderful tour!!!
Our first trip to the Dominican Republic. We decided to book this as our last tour before leaving. We are so happy we did! The guide and photographer were absolutely wonderful. Very detailed information on this tour. The food was delicious. The waterfalls were so beautiful. The team at the falls are amazing, I felt safe the entire time and will never forget this experience. Highly recommend. Don't miss out on this tour.
