    Not what I thought it would be

    Rebecca_C, Apr 2026
    Not much for shopping. I thought we were going to a big bazaar type of market with the "World Mart" but it was a tiny store. Not impressed at all.

    Shopping with family

    crystal_D, Apr 2026
    I enjoy the opportunity we had the opportunity to go shopping at the other places that we wouldn't have been able to know about and a couple people were really good in customer service

    No shows

    Angela_S, Apr 2026
    The driver never showed up, would rate zero but not possible. Total waste of time. Get an uber to world mart and save urself the trouble.

    Fun experience

    Henrietta_L, Mar 2026
    We enjoyed hanging with the locals. Our time downtown was very good. We had an opportunity to shop with the locals visit. The local grocery store I even got a pedicure went was 1800 pesos converted into US $31 I believe on that day which is very very low we went to the local grocery store and shopped around just browse with the locals seeing how things flow there in that region. It was a lot of fun. We enjoyed it and I would recommend it in the daytime because it gets really busy especially another Burger King and I think the jumbo store but it was good. Highly recommend it enjoy be safe.

    Loved it even though it...

    Nateisha_C, Mar 2026
    Loved it even though it was small they were plenty of little items in the shops that I bought a few of and I’m so addicted to one of these chocolates that I bought there. It was a nice small group pick up and drop off was easy and convenient and the drivers were so polite.

    Cheaper outside the resorts

    Charlene_K, Mar 2026
    We were very happy with our shopping trip. We had two stops at the gift shops. FYI everything is a lot cheaper outside the resort. We ended at the mall. They are still building and not much there. We did most of our shopping at the goft shops.

    Short, Sweet and Simple

    Shannon_H, Mar 2026
    A short sweet and simple tour. It encompassed enough for the time given. Seeing how cigars were made at a shop was super cool and the origins of Mama Juana.

    Shopping in Punta Cana

    Debra_B, Feb 2026
    The Punta Cana shopping trip was really good the driver took us to three different locations all with in short distance of each other . He explained what type of shops and the prices to expect.

    Great Shopping Trip

    Brian_C, Feb 2026
    This was a great trip for the money. We stopped at a few different shopping venues. The prices were reasonable. We picked up gifts for our kids. Our driver Luis provided excellent service and his Lincoln was large and comfortable. One of the highlights of the trip was our afternoon snack at a Dominican Taco Bell. All in all, it was a relaxing, interesting, low key excision that we would do again.

    Souvenirs

    Carol_F, Feb 2026
    Local shopping experience, learning about the culture and how they live and experiencing how they shop

    Alberto was on time for...

    Bob_G, Feb 2026
    Alberto was on time for pickup and drove us to our destinations as advertised. Would recommend him for shuttles

    Wasn’t happy

    Anonymous, Feb 2026
    The experience wasn’t what I thought it would’ve been, the pictures on the website don’t look like where we went. I was excepting someplace to sit down and eat all we did was keep going into different souvenirs shops.

    Response from Host, Feb 2026

    Good morning, You where taken to Word mart, Coco Bongo, Hard Rock and Down Town Center, check what you where booking. so can you be more specific on what you didn't like, couse Punta Cana, Bávaro, Dominican Republic and even your country are very expensive. But we sorry if you didn't liked, 99 % of our costumer do. But not everybody like the same thing. Best regards, Luis Berroa.

    Manuel-Tour Guide was great!

    Clairine_A, Jan 2026
    It was really a nice tour. Manuel took us to great shopping locations and the group was great. As a solo traveler i felt right at home.

    Shopping tour with the family 2025/12/26

    Sonia_R, Dec 2025
    We had a great time the driver was really nice and patient.the mall was actually decent. Thank you!!

    Disappointing !

    Anne_M, Dec 2025
    Very disappointing experience as the pictures do not reflect the place we went! In 2 hours we were done. Prices look fair, but it’s not at all an open market as the pictures might suggest. Its like a small village of « attrape touriste » as we say in French !

    Response from Host, Dec 2025

    Good morning, We really sorry to hear that front you, but our customers that really appreciate chocolate, Cigar, and natural think love this Kind of tour. Any way, thanks for your feedback and we looking forward to get better everyday.

    great shopping trip

    James_g, Dec 2025
    Alberto was amazing. we hit a few little local places before finishing at the san juan plaze. very nice tour great value

    Shopping area with cigars, chocolate, rum and souvenirs

    erick, Nov 2025
    First off, we really liked this activity. It was not really the shopping experience we thought it would be, but enjoyed the trip to the Cigar, Chocolate, Rum and Souvenir location. This activity included a pickup from our resort to a small local place with the above mentioned produce. We thought it would be a droppff at a shopping centre or market area, but that is not the case. However, we had a nice tour of the cigar factory where I bought a couple of boxes of their locally produced cigars. They also have the well-known brands intheir inhouse walk-inn humidor shop. For me, this was something I really enjoyed. Afterwards we had a chocolate tasting which my wife really liked and we bought a couple of chocolate products to bring home to the Netherlands. When the time is over, we would be brought back to the resort, but we asked if we instead could be brought to the Blue Mall in Punta Cana. This way we still had an option for some shopping in Punta Cana. This did mean we had to find our own way back, but on the outside at the entrance there is a QR code to scan and we were in contact with a local transportation company offered by the mall to get back to the resort. Just some advice; ofcourse they are going to try and overcharge tourists eventhough there are advertisements that in certain timeframes it should be free. But our resort was outside of the free-of-charge area quite far away. They asked us 30USD and we closed the deal on 15USD. Uber also showed options of 15USD and was also available. So the activity may not be exactly what you expect: being dropped somewhere close to a market near the Coco Bongo, but at a local production center with Don Lucas Cigars, chocolate, rum and souvenir shop.

    Good gift and souvenir shopping

    Michelle_F, Oct 2025
    The driver was very friendly and professional. He waited for us. They offered us coffee and mama Juana on every stop.

    Great for getting round the local souvenir shops

    Sally_C, Oct 2025
    Driver was great, confirmed by WhatsApp picked up bang on time. Very flexible with times and extremely polite.

    Deceptive

    Sherita_R, Oct 2025
    I paid for a shopping trip and was dropped off at a cigar place and no vendors. The driver took us to blue mall and I had to get an uber back to my resort. ( I had to pay more money).

    Response from Host, Oct 2025

    Good morning, It wasn't a Cigar place, was a Souvenir, jewelry, clothes, chocolate and other opción, we olso offered you other places and you didn't wanted. You need to be more specific on your review please.

    Response from Host, Oct 2025

    Thanks for your feedback is really important to us. Have a nice day and we hope you come back soon and use our service.

    Highly discouraged

    Joe_G, Sep 2025
    Don't waste your money...the pictures are deceiving and the shopping is more expensive then the resorts to be honest a total rip off.

    Response from Host, Sep 2025

    Good morning, Thanks for your feedback, about the store we can not manage the prices

    Great day

    Helena_C, Sep 2025
    Nice driver, we didn’t like the first few places he took us but when we described what we where looking for found the perfect little plaza with cigar making demo, coffee bean tour, chocolate tour and more. Was perfect

    Driver was very nice

    Jevon_S, Sep 2025
    Boring We went to 3 overpriced stores. There was nothing but very very overpriced things. It is making me leave a long review or it won’t be

    I would definitely...

    Alexandria_T, Aug 2025
    I would definitely recommend this service!! Luis was patient , welcoming and very professional. He made it his priority to ensure the client was satisfied.

    Great shopping,but if you...

    Chandika_P, Aug 2025
    Great shopping,but if you are looking for a outside shopping tour this is not it!this is basically indoor shopping outlets and supermarket. Overall very nice and patient driver

    Good shopping experience

    Diane_C, Jul 2025
    This is a good opportunity to find good deals on souvenirs and enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of local markets,

    We didn't care much for...

    Candice_H, Jun 2025
    We didn't care much for the 1st place we were taken to shop. Unfortunately the shopping experience was not at all what I expected but we did have some success getting souvenirs at the 2nd market

    Response from Host, Aug 2025

    Sorry to hear that front you, but you can not judge just because you didn't found what you where looking for. On your next vacation will take you for half a price as a courtesy.

    Great experience

    James_O, Jun 2025
    Friendly. Our driver Alberto was friendly and hit all the local shopping spots. He guided us through the money exchange and was willing to assist in any manner.

    Do not book

    Veronica_H, Jun 2025
    1st arrived late for pick up. Then asked what were we wantimg to do, said wanna go to their flea market type shopping center to get survivors and see local shops. Took us to a survivor shop what was 10 mins away from resort, says this is a great place to shop etc. Purchased 260 usd and I was told there would be a fee for using a card, no problem, I understood that. Once looked at charge on bank statement later, I was charged 320 usd. Then he driver tried to drop us off at a shopping center that had stories I was familiar with from home, no local business. I said no not there it is stories ive been to, he then toldme, I have another customer to pick up and then we can go.to another store near by then. I was fine with it. While waiting for the new customer we were able to get wifi and noticed the charge. I told the driver and he was like no I don't think they changed you 60 usd extra. He said we can go back and ask. Upset I said fine. Customer never showed up and we went on. He stops at another survivor shop and I was like no this is not where I wanna go, please just take us back. Once he took us back to resort, with out stop st the survivor shop to ask about thr charge, he said the survivor shop did not present them. When it does because he knows the area and by stopping there he is saying this is a good place to shop and won't take advantage of the tourist. We never went to the local shopping center we wanted to go to. 2 hours and noting but a drive of nothing to see. DO NOT RECOMMEND

    Response from Host, Jun 2025

    Is unfare that you give us 1 start for a bad experience with a Shopping Center, we provide the transportation, and we took you to a diferent places. We don't tell you what to by, where to by or what to do, this is your problems. You didn't book a City Tour it was a Shopping tour, so don't understand your point. Be more especific. Regarding about your issue with the store on the recipe is the number you can call them and check with them.

    From $15.00
