    I laughed more than I have laughed in years on this trip. The city tour is great fun, we got to buy some jewelry and eat great food, but the dune buggy experience was unreal. I will say, do not bring any electronics. They did not tell us that, and you will be fully submerged in muddy water. Our guide, Louis Alfredo, made the trip so much better. He kept the energy up when we were tired in the car. He made us feel safe and excited! The owners even went out of their way to pick us up, which was in the neighboring town of Cabarete. This trip is perfect for the girls - a little bit of city, a little bit of adventure.

    Don't go!!!

    I would not recommend this excursion. The city tour part was great but the dune buggy part was not. They gave us a faulty dune buggy. When we tried to make a right turn, the dune buggy wouldn't turn good resulting in us scrapping the bumper of a car. Then they charged us with the repairs to the bumper. Also we paid for pictures for the excursion and we never got our pictures. We paid over $80 and never got them. A complete ripoff!!! Do not book this excursion!!!!

    We were hesitant to book a tour with few reviews, but we don’t regret it at all! Jr was an awesome, respectful, and knowledgeable guide. He let us take our time, take in the experience, and answered all our questions. Macorix House of Rum: Didn’t have time. Paseo de Doña Blanca & Umbrella Street: Super busy during March break but very pretty. 4/5 Catedral San Felipe: Observed from outside with other downtown attractions. Fed pigeons!! 4/5 Fortaleza San Felipe: Didn’t have time. Del Oro Chocolate Factory: Short tour, wish it was more interactive. AMAZING chocolate! Bought brownie mix. 4/5 Fifi Jewelry & Cigar Store: Short tour. Passionate, knowledgeable staff, but wish it was more interactive. 3/5 Larimar Caribbean Buggy: YOU WILL GET SOAKED!! Wear a swimsuit under clothes or a garbage bag. Bring a bandana, towel, and a change of clothes (will have to wash at hotel). Professional photos available (not cheap, can negociate, bring cash). Such a blast! 5/5 Tips: Bring snacks or cash for food. Excursion is long but worth it—a great mix of adventure, city, and history!

    Amazing and so much mud
