Driver, not a tour guide

April_W, Jul 2026

E&J contract their tours out. So the reviews you read vary, depending on who you get. I communicated with them a great deal before the trip and the tour guide was not aware of any of our communications. We were a large group so needed two vehicles. Unfortunately one vehicle got an English speaker who gave a bit more information versus us who had a driver. Mind you, he tried, but admittedly doesn’t speak English very well and that impacted our trip because even though neither guy was giving a “tour” our driver struggled to answer questions. Essentially, we had a driver and I think you can get a driver at a much better price.

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for choosing E&J Taxi Tours. We're glad to hear that our communication before your trip was helpful. However, we're sorry that the experience during transportation did not fully meet your expectations. For larger groups, we sometimes use more than one vehicle to ensure everyone's comfort. In these cases, our goal is always to provide the same level of service in each vehicle. We regret that this was not your experience and appreciate you bringing it to our attention. Your feedback regarding the language difference between the vehicles is valuable, and we will continue working to improve consistency so that every guest receives the same quality experience. Thank you again for your honest review. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with an even better experience in the future.

Great Cultural Experience

Jeremy_P, Jan 2026

Our driver Elian was amazing. He took us to a rural area which was our favorite part of the tour. We got to learn their daily lifestyle and try local cuisine. He then took us to the city for great sight seeing. His knowledge of the area and experienced driving made our tour very relaxing. We were able to optimize all of our tour destinations within our alloted time frame. The chocolate and Rum factory were both great stops.

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Thanks so much! We love treating our guests like family and sharing the best of our island with you

Kelvin is the BEST!

Olivia_M, Dec 2024

Kelvin was an amazing tour guide. He adapted the experience to be exactly what we needed and wanted as the day went on. We met his family and saw how DR people live. We visted landmarks and historical places, the city centre, and found our DR geocache. Highly recommend doing this excursion with Kelvin.
