Craig_K, Jun 2026

Zip Line/Waterfall Excursion-worth every penny!

Driver William was fantastic and gave us great instructions from start to finish. Once at the Zip line/waterfall destination he handed us off to the tour guides seamlessly and we were on our way for an incredible experience. The tour ran longer than the stated 3-4 hours but we got back to the ship with plenty of time to spare. Had a great included lunch and a stop at a local goods store for chocolate, jewelry, Mamajuana and cigars. Viator has always been our go to when we travel and will continue to use them always. Saved about 40% from the ship tour cost!!

Half-Day Buggy Guided Adventure for Amber Cove and Taino Bay

Sandi_M, May 2026

One of our favorite excursions!

You will be muddy and wet! We arrived in clothes and shoes that we didn't mind getting muddy or wet! Remember, mud stains, so dark colors are best if you plan to salvage the clothes for future wear. They sell bandanas (2 for $5) or a ski-mask ($5 ea.). We opted for the soft-material ski-mask and were thankful for the extra protection. We brought a change of clothes but didn't end up changing. Bring a towel. The walk from the boat is about 15 mins but the instructions texted were very clear. I wore sneakers for the walk and changed into water shoes for the muddy ride. What we would do differently: 1. Wear a dark color or old bathing suit under tshirt/shorts. You drive to a beach to wash off after the ride and that would have been easier to really rinse off. Then back at base-camp they have outdoors showers plus changing rooms. Be sure to bring dry clothes for the ride back unless you don't mind being dirty/wet. 2. My kids wore old sneakers and I would water shoe style footwear. Again, go with the water-shoe style for easy rinsing. You do stop at a coffee/jewelry/cigar type place where you can purchase items if you want. They really want you to, but if you say no they are respectful. I didn't feel pressured. Dogs are everywhere which was cute and we enjoyed seeing them. These folks have the system down pat! I drove the family buggy and it took some muscle and at 5'3" I couldn't quite reach the steering wheel when strapped in tight. I loosened the straps and had to sit away from the seat to be able to reach. A taller person wouldn't have an issue. I managed and it was a blast! I never felt like I was falling out of the buggy or unsafe at all. The team does a great job of getting photos and videos of the experience. The total package was $50 which is a great deal for 200+ photos/videos! I highly recommend this tour.

This excursion was fun and exciting! The taxi drivers were on time and ready and so friendly. The taxi was exceptionally clean and comfortable. The excursion staff were friendly and efficient.

Sara_L, May 2026

Amazing Experience!

We had an amazing unforgettable experience! We went to the monkeys first and had our own private encounter. Then we went to do the hike to the falls and rock water slides… both activities were awesome!! Our drivers Aribel and Yeuri were super nice, friendly and knowledgeable. They always made sure we were comfortable. We would recommend them 💯👌 We are from Ottawa, Canada.

Very enjoyable!

Four of us took this excursion(my husband, 2 teenage kids (18 and 15 y.o.) and myself)). Usually it’s difficult to please everyone in the family but all 4 of us enjoyed the experience a lot! The meeting place was easy to find. The bus was comfortable. Waterfalls were great! Bring your own water shoes if you don’t want a rental opinion. Our shooter guy did a great job taking pictures and videos for us. The lunch was yummy and we liked the local beer.

This was so fun! Our...

This was so fun! Our driver Leandro was hilarious and the guides during the tour were so helpful! Our ship was behind schedule with docking so we ended up being about 15 minutes late, but they were so accommodating! To top it off, we ended the excursion with a delicious meal. Would definitely do this again!

RONALD_G, May 2026

Good tour

The tour was great. Edwin and his partner transported us in an air conditioned van. Very comfortable. We made a lot of stops especially for shopping. Some touristy shops were a bit pushy but nothing new at these cruise stops. Well worth the $55. Smoked a free just rolled cigar. That was worth it alone for me. I definitely recommend.

Edgar Entertainment

Edgar was amazing!! His tour was outstanding. He took us to see the wonderful parts of Puerta Plata which included a visit to a fort, rum distillery and walked us through the streets to see other sights. He allowed the time and space to enjoy these sights. I would highly recommend booking this!! Our day ended with a nice lunch at a restaurant and a gift from Edgar. This was my FAVORITE excursion.

An awesome time!

Amazing! Our guide Juan Carlos was excellent- so kind, and he made sure we felt completely safe and comfortable. We saw so much of the beautiful culture in DR, and got a real tour of the coast and took the jungle way to Los Canas. A thrilling experience, every moment was golden and pure fun! Thanks so much for an incredible time- this is a great company!

Darcy_C, Apr 2026

My husband and myself...

My husband and myself really enjoyed this excursion, they were incredibly friendly and helpful, Oscar, Liam and another gentleman whos name I cant recall sadly, were great company and extremely competent. We felt very safe and well taken care of, highly recommend! There are locals offering sales and hair braiding at the beach but theyre very friendly and not aggressively pushy, just there trying to make a living. Beautiful beach and the trail through the woods was very clear to navigate. I was a first time rider and despite how inexperienced i was, they were kind and patient!

Paul_F, Mar 2026

Great team on the ground....

Great team on the ground. The tour was so much better than the cruise offered. Transferred via a private van to the Falls. No sitting around waiting for busses. We had a fast pass ahead of all the cruise company tour people. We were truly treated like VIPs. We made it back to port with no stress and time for a few beers before sailing. Edwin Tours is top notch. No more cruise company tours for us. This is the way to go!!!

Don't pass up this experience

IT WAS FUN!!!! I apologize that I'm terrible with names but the host was amazing! He was a great conversationalist and immediately put me at ease with his laid back demeanor. This was my 1st time riding on ATV so I a bit apprehensive but that time quickly passed. The tour guides all spoke great English and were just fun to hang around. We explored plenty and didn't have any issues they couldn't resolve. On of the best stops on the tour was seeing how Mama Juana drink was made. 😉😋
