What are people saying about Puerto Plata

Puerto Plata City Tour with Private Guide, Rum,Chocolate.

Abby_H, Jun 2026

Incredible Experience!

Touring Puerto Plata with Carlos was such a great experience! He was very attentive and flexible, told us to take as much time as we wanted at each stop, and was mindful of the time we needed to be back on our cruise ship. He even offered to take us to locations that weren’t official tour stops. Unfortunately, we couldn’t take him up on those offers since we needed to be back on the ship at a certain time. Carlos was very friendly and talked to us about his experiences living in Puerto Plata, including giving us some insight into Puerto Plata and the Dominican Republic’s history. We felt as though we were exploring with a good friend!

AMBER COVE-TAINO BAY Super Buggy Tour

Kevin_L, Jun 2026

Great time!!

Great adventure to see areas you never see. There are not a lot of times where you go full throttle in the biggie, but several times to get wet. Visiting the native town was a great experience and the beach was a nice way to end the day. Staff was amazing. They were informative and attentive the whole time. I am a taller guy, they refused to let me stay crammed in the buggy and brought a bigger one out for us to use to make it more enjoyable.

Monkey Home Tour and Damajagua waterfalls in Puerto Plata.

John_B, Jun 2026

Waterfall Full Review with Monkeys

It is a 45 minute trail hike up mountain. Not easy. I would suggest you wear water shoes for this. Do not try this if you are older or cannot walk at least a mile up an uphill trail in the heat and humidity. Need waterproof bag for electronics. You WILL get submerged. Everything you own will get soaked. Do not take a hate or sunglasses. Some of the waterfalls have about a 10 to 15 foot jump off a cliff. You dive into the bottom pool and you will be completely submerged. You will also have to swim but you do have life jackets on. One of the best excursions we have been on. 12 and 14 year old did great. The 1st stop is the monkeys. You will thoroughly enjoy this as the monkeys are super sweet. Then you go to the waterfalls afterwards. A locker is included so do take everything with you and place in locked. Women, do not just wear a bikini. Wear shorts over the bikini. You will be sliding down smooth rock slides into the water. But overall I would do it again.

Elian was absolutely...

Elian was absolutely phenomenal! Communication pre-meet was great and made it really easy to find him. He took us all throughout the island, culminating at the Christ the Redeemer statue with engaging conversation, interesting historical stories, and a true passion for his home country. Air co digit ed vehicle with just my wife and I and a blank canvas for how to spend the day. If/when we go back to puerto plata, we will absolutely book with Elian and his family again

Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines

Sonja_R, Jun 2026

An Authentic Adventure We’ll Never Forget

This excursion was definitely one of the highlights of our trip! Meeting our guide was incredibly easy—they were waiting right outside the cruise port, and we took a short ride through the city to the ranch. Once we arrived, we were welcomed by a wonderful family, and the guides got everyone ready for an unforgettable ATV adventure through the countryside. The ride was beautiful, exciting, and definitely humbling at times! It was an amazing experience for both adults and kids. The waterfall was absolutely worth the trip. The views were stunning, and it was so refreshing to take a dip. The only thing I’d mention is that there were no life jackets available, so if you’re not a confident swimmer, keep that in mind. That said, I always felt safe because the guides stayed in the water with everyone and kept a close eye on the group, especially the kids. There was also a photographer capturing the experience, and we purchased the photo package. The pictures were emailed to us within 24 hours, which was a nice bonus. To top it all off, a delicious meal was waiting for us after the ride back. Honestly, it may have been the best chicken we had during our entire trip! I highly recommend this adventure to anyone looking for a fun, authentic, and memorable experience. We would absolutely do it again!

Shore Excursion: Buggy Adventure — Countryside & Local Tasting

Talea_J, Jun 2026

Great excursion. There...

Great excursion. There is a bit of a walk from the cruise ship and you will have to wait until the other guests arrive. YOU WILL GET WET! Make sure to wear something you are okay with getting soaked. Bring goggles and something to cover your mouth from the water and dust. Would DEFINITELY do it again!

7 Waterfalls in Puerto Plata + a Delicious Local lunch.

alyson_h, Jun 2026

Definitely an adventure!

We truly enjoyed our experience- definitely for the fit and adventurous. The hike up to the waterfalls requires stamina, but they allow breaks and go slow if needed. The waterfalls themselves are not like movie waterfalls- this is NOT a sightseeing excursion, you are sliding or jumping at every waterfall. Our driver Leuri, our adventure guides Albert and 2 others, and our photographer Oliver were fun, lighthearted and good sports. The photography package was definitely worth it- tons of pics and videos!

AMBER COVE-TAINO BAY 5 Zip Lines 7 Waterfalls + Locale Food

Christopher_H, Jun 2026

Amazing guides with hiking adventure and fun on zip lines and waterfalls

Wanted to give an honest review of my experience and things I wish I would have known: 1. From cruise port was about a 20 minute walk - people are helpful along the way to make sure you are headed in the correct direction - it was basically a spot on side of highway where they were allowed to pick up (but it was safe) 2. Van with 2 tour guides was very good - nice and cool and bottle of water given upon arrival 3. Once you get to the location to do excursion you will leave all belongings in the van (they were safe) but really you are encouraged to not take anything with you! Our money and everything was safe. You get helmet and life jacket there and are able to use the restroom real quick 4. Water shoes - I would suggest good hiking water shoes - not the cheap ones - so thankful I saw this on a post and got newer ones with support! the hike is rocky and unsteady a 5. The hike! I was a little taken back by the hike - it wasn't just a hike it was A LOT (like around 20'ish) flights of stairs. I was not prepared for this and am currently out of shape to be honest - so this was more challenging for me. I made it but a few things: Be sure to hydrate prior to this excursion (this would have helped me) and I didn't eat much for breakfast and that didn't help either > Thankfully it was shaded so the blazing sun was not on us - which was good!. The guides are VERY understanding and helpful. At one point I felt like was going to throw up and the guide pulled off a tree branch and was fanning me! It was very nice and helpful - I ended up being fine - 4. zip lines - safe and good - 5. Waterfalls- the slides for waterfalls you MUST do (all except one) I mean you have to do them , there is not an option to bypass this -but it was totally worth it and better than I expected! The last waterfall was one you had to jump in or could take the stairs down, but this was the only one you had that option 6. Lunch - our group felt lunch was ok - none of us were crazy about our meal that day 7. Plantation stop on the way back was informing and we weren't there very long - little shop and restrooms there if you need to buy something or use restroom. **You can pay $100 (they took Credit Card) to purchase a guide to take pics of your group through the excursion and they give you a flash drive with everything on it- and we chose to do that! I feel like this is well worth the money.

Damajagua Waterfalls, Zipline with Lunch and Transfer

David_M, Jun 2026

Zip and Dip

You have to walk outside of the Amber Cove gated grounds to find the Edwins Travels van for pickup. It was easy. AND they were VERY prompt to return us by 4pm. Sádē, our driver was great. He spoke no English but was adept at using Google translate to communicate. He took us after lunch to a small local shop for cigars, coffee and souvenirs which we loved, near the drop off point outside the gate. The "Zip and Dip" was well worth it and a fantastic fun excursion for us 2 -70 yr olds and our 2, 17 yr old teen Gkids. The lunch with local food on-site at the Falls HQ was fantastic. We bought Presidente cervesa's (22oz), ice cold and excellent beer.

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

Shawn_B, Jun 2026

Dirty fun!

An amazingly fun, but filthy adventure. The staff was so friendly, especially the "paparazzi". We got over 700 images of our trip, for a very reasonable price. The jungle stop was very neat, getting to try coffee, chocolate, cigars and mamajuana was great. Just be prepared for a hard but friendly sell from the workers for souvenirs. And to finish it off, a dip in the ocean to wash off the dirt, with the cruise ships in the background was nice. There were lockers, showers, and dressing rooms, as well as a food truck and bar at the headquarters with reasonable prices and tasty options. Our favorite excursion on our trip.

AMBER COVE-TAINO BAY 7 Damajagua Waterfalls + Locale Food

Anonymous, May 2026

Amazing tour! Beautiful sights & excellent food!

Fantastic experience!! We cannot recommend this excursion enough. We were very lucky that they waited for us as our cruise ship was late arriving into Port. It was a small group of just five of us and we had a fantastic time. The fall was an amazing experience. Be prepared for a strenuous hike, but it was great. Bottled water was provided. However, the crown jewel was the food at the local restaurant. It was absolutely delicious. Our tour guide was amazing.

7 Waterfalls Damajagua and Dune Buggy

Susan_S, Nov 2025

An exhausting day of fun and exploration with the best guide

The hike was strenuous but worth it. Wear water shoes. You'll be glad you did. Our guides were so helpful and kind. The perfect day in the DR! Hiking thru the rainforest, sliding and jumping from waterfalls, riding buggys thru town, on the beach, and thru mud plus a great tour of a cocoa farm. Such a great way to spend the day - totally exhausted afterwards.
