Top Punta Cana Day Trips - page 19

We had a wonderful tour with Andy who speaks wonderful English and is very knowledgeable about the area as well as local Dominican culture. We participated as a family with two children age 11 and 15 and it was a very memorable experience for everyone, so much was packed into one day but we did not feel rushed. I like that we were able to make many visits and sample local products but there was not pressure to purchase. It was more about seeing how things are made, and getting a sense of how people live in the area around Punta Cana. We visited the iconic church, local market, rolled cigars, tasted fresh macao, had a delicious home cooked lunch, visited a beautiful local beach (better conditions than our hotel due to sargassum) and horse back riding, all this and we were done before 3pm. We chose to stay longer at the beach and uber back to our hotel because it was so beautiful there. Wonderful service and communication throughout. Even if we had rented a car there is no way we would have uncovered so many hidden gems and so efficiently. Thank you!

I had a great experience on this Santo Domingo tour! Our tour guide, Darius, was fun, energetic, and incredibly knowledgeable. He spoke three languages fluently and did an excellent job explaining the history of the Dominican Republic in a way that was engaging and easy to follow. You could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does. A special thanks as well to our driver, who drove safely and professionally throughout the entire journey, making the long trip comfortable and stress-free. I highly recommend this tour if you want to learn about the country’s rich history while having an enjoyable day. Definitely worth it!

This trip is a wonderful way to see how the locals live, taste some wonderful local cuisine. The food was awesome.. We had a good time with the rum tasting the mamawanna, the coffee and chocolate farms. Robinson our tour guide was WONDERFUL! His knowledge is top notch and he is so polite. By the end of the day he and Teo (the driver) felt like family. I definitely recommend taking this tour. It is also a REALLY value. You get more then what you pay for.

Sandy the driver and Robinson the tour guide were awesome. As “hokey” as it may sound, they both made it feel like we were touring the local area with family. As far as the tour, it was great. I genuinely felt like I was able to see the authentic Punta Cana

The excursion was excellent. From the moment Chris picked us up at the hotel, he provided information and explained the history of the place. The views along the way were breathtaking. The ranch and horseback riding, the basilica, Higüey, the Dominican aunt's house where we saw the cacao process, and the food—it was a very cultural tour, just as I wanted. The service was excellent. 100% recommended.

This was a fantastic tour! Gary and Johnny were great guides. They were fun and entertaining, but also kept everyone organized when areas got busy. They made sure to give us a heads up before we’re would encounter an onslaught of crazy merchants and gave us tips on dealing with them!

It’s a long day but worth it! Our tour guides Sexy Papi and PJ were amazing. Our shuttle driver Cielo was hauling butt to make the travel times are short as possible which we really appreciated. The zip lining was so much fun and beautiful scenery. All the workers made me feel very comfortable (first time zip liner, it’s intimidating! ) the monkeys were so cute and friendly. And last but not least the buggies were a fun way to wrap up the day, luckily the DR hadn’t been getting too much rain so didn’t get muddy! Just be prepared to be away from your resort for up to 12 hours. They had plenty of water but glad we brought extra bottles and snacks.

The excursion was great. Luis Miguel. Was our instructor and he was great very knowledgeable nice accommodating. We did have a series of unfortunate events that happened to our excursion out of any of our control. However, Luis Miguel handled it in a super professional manner he should get all the raises and all the kudos.
