Amazing half day tour in Punta Cana!
Our trip to Punta Cana was unforgettable, and the half-day city tour my husband booked through Viator turned out to be the highlight of our vacation!
We got to experience so much in just half a day , horseback riding, visiting the stunning basilica and exploring local markets. Our tour guide, Osvaldo, truly made the experience special. He knew all the best spots for photos and made sure we captured beautiful memories every step of the way.
One of the most unique parts was learning how cigars are made and make one ourselves such an incredible hands-on experience! And the food… absolutely delicious. Everything we tasted was amazing, and the service was top-notch.
As I write this, I’m reliving every moment. Osvaldo treated us like family, and the Dominican Republic welcomed us with such warmth and hospitality. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience

Beautiful Experience!
We had an amazing time! The pace was great. We went to the first church in the DR which had beautiful architecture. We went horse back riding through the mountains, had an authentic Dominican meal by a river, went through a market with extra security, stopped by a cocoa and chocolate farm and saw a typical family house. Lastly we went to the beach. Me and my cousin who are in our early 30’s felt safe, secure and loved! It was a great cultural experience especially bc our resort is very isolated from the Dominican cultural experiences.

Great tour and excellent hosts!
We really enjoyed this ATV adventure! My husband, 18-year-old daughter, and I each got a solo ATV and we were so glad we did it that way rather than doubling up. The scenery was beautiful and we enjoyed the visit to the native family's house. Swimming at our very own beach was fantastic. The hosts - a married couple - were great! They made sure everyone understood how to use the ATV and led us all very safely. We were all in very capable hands and they were super nice also. Thank you for a great day!

Take this tour!
This is an AMAZING tour!!! It provides so much knowledge and history while visiting several sites; and the buffet lunch was delicious. The tour is very well managed - groups aren't all showing up in places at the same time, they give you headsets so you can hear your guide while taking your time to look around and take photos, and there are plenty of bathroom breaks. Nacho was our tour guide and he was engaging, personable, and extremely intelligent. A couple bits of advice - take whatever you want to have with you on the tour when you get off the bus after the Presidential palace, as you won't get back on until the day is done. Also be aware that this is a LONG day - 13 hours for us - and A LOT of sitting on a bus and walking. Be prepared for that, but regardless I recommend it 100%.

Long day out but honestly worth it
Booked the small group trip but we were upgraded to private tour which was fantastic as we had our own driver and tour guide so we were able to make excellent use of time and got chance to do all the attractions. Lunch was included, again this was great. Thanks so much for a fantastic historical day out

Best Cultural Tour!!
We originally had a switch up with our activity dates and Christopher was VERY accommodating and still showed us a great time! The food, culture, and sites were all great and we were free to ask all types of questions! Not only did we go to the designated spots, he also took the time to show us some real spots to get good food and drinks outside of the popular places.
When going to the chocolate and coffee spot, the demonstration was very good and they let us taste the products at their different stages. The lunch was really tasty and very fresh, each of us had 2 plates of food and really enjoyed the hospitality!!! Would highly recommend!

Jason is the best
Jason was amazing! We did a private tour and absolutely loved it. Expect a lot of driving but it’s definitely worth it. Jason made sure we had everything we needed and were well taken care of. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the REAL natural beauty and culture that is the Dominican Republic.

A great way to see the Dominican beyond the beach!
This tour was awesome! A great way to get away from the beach & see more of the Dominican! Robinson & Tito were great and very personable. They were organized and made it an easy experience. Very worth it & we had a variety of activities- horseback riding, visiting the church, seeing a traditional market, lunch by the river, a traditional dominican house where they showed us how they make coffee/chocolate, a cigar factory, and the beach. I would suggest you bring your own water & cash for the various activities! Highly recommend!!

Great excursion for a family!
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’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.

Canadians get on the buggies!!!
Party of 6, two family buggies booked
A group of family members and Coworkers from
Vancouver B.C Canada
Miguel was able to accommodate our changing schedule and pick up location. It was a smooth experience booking and getting picked up and dropped off in a clean, air conditioned vehicle was a bonus. I’ve been on Buggies with another company in the past and this experience was 100 times better.
The staff is amazing and well organized. They kept us safe from road hazards.
The farm is where we learned about coco, coffee and other cool Dominican products. We also went to the beach, it was only 20 minutes long and we wish it was longer, it was beautiful and refreshing after a hot drive.
The cave is only for strong swimmers but you can take some amazing photos.
Remember to bring your bandannas and sunglasses.You will get dirty so don’t wear your favourite clothes! And cover your body because you will get a burn. I didn’t and Ooopps!!!
Thank you for a great experience! Highly recommended and I would do it again with your company.
And last but not least ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️on your prices for us Canadians.

Fun ATV & Beach Tour
Fun 4x4 ATV excursion. Muddy so dress in clothes/shoea you don't mind getting messy. Guides were patient, knowledgeable and fun. Great pics for memories. The water Cave was beautiful and the beach was the best we saw during our stay in Punta Cana! Coffee, tea and a variety products were at a good cost. Guide told who to buy from and where to stay away.
