Made it back alive ! Just 🤣🤣 - Really good fun, but the slides are fast and deep ... don't know what I was expecting but it was a lot quicker ! Need to be relatively fit and able as the hike is a lot of steps up to the top .. and you need to be able to climb and reach across to get into canyons/slides

Choose This One!!!!! These guys were the best. - If you are in-between options, these guys are the ones to do it with. Anthony was the nicest, funniest, and most knowledgeable tour guide. We were between options of which company to go with for this Falls Excursion, and we’re SO SO happy we went with them. They are all just so nice and down to earth, and the falls were amazing. Definitely bring water shoes/crocs. It felt very personalized as there were only 4 people, and they genuinely cared. We actually even had some miscommunication with our pickup/drop off (as we didn’t know which Puerto Plata port we would be docking at), but they were so happily willing to accommodate us. They really made us feel special. These are all great people. Enjoy; you will have zero regrets! Thank you.
PS - this is definitely worth the price, as there’s 3 slides, 1 huge jump, a lunch at a local restaurant, and they even took us to a local cigar manufacturer.

Exhilarating and fun. - We had a fantastic excursion. It was easy to find the bus from the cruise port - only a 15 minute walk away - and even though we didn’t realize we were arriving in a different time zone that was an hour ahead of the cruise ship time, DR Tours completely accommodated our party of 9 by pushing our time ahead an hour. The walk was a bit long because of the number of people on the trail - but once we arrived at the waterfalls, it was exhilarating and fun, so well worth the slow walk uphill. We were travelling with four teenagers and they thought it was an amazing adventure. The guides were great and we felt very safe. It was a highlight of the cruise.

Definitely recommend! - This was perfect for an adventurous family. There were two slides and one jump. You could walk down stairs for that one though. The lines were pretty long, but the guide Jonathan was fun to talk to! The lunch after was amazing! Definitely recommend.

Amazing would recommend to everyone! - Everything was amazing!!! Darleni our driving went above and beyond. She made us feel so safe as we were a group of 4 college girls. I can’t say enough good things about her. She even stopped on our way back to the hotel to take a picture at the Puerto Plata sign. Would recommend her to everyone!
The waterfalls were also amazing and we went early in the morning so we beat the big crowds. Augusto our guide was phenomenal he was so fun and was so kind to us. He made the hike very enjoyable.
Our photographer was also amazing and very kind to us. He would run in front of us so he could get every angle. (Will post the pics once we get home!)
The lunch was very delicious and it was great to try local foods. Including some plantain!
Overall: AMAZING!!! You will not regret it and they make you feel very safe:)

We both enjoyed this... - We both enjoyed this excursion with Charlie and Freddy. My wife is generally scared of swimming but she had so much fun that she jumped off the cliff into the water. The food was really good to which surprised us. It was better than most of the food that we eat at other restaurants.

The best of the best experience - The driver and the photographer, and other safety guards were a great team.
It was so much fun and adventurous. It was the best excursion I ever had so far. The photos from the photographer are great.

As advertised and quite... - As advertised and quite an adventure.
Water shoes had very thin soles so the hike was hard on our feet. The lunch was in a separate location so it was nice & quiet.
Chocolate sampling was misleading.
Overall, we enjoyed it a lot. Thank you!

Good job. Not 5 star worthy this day. - We were early to the pick up point. FYI, it’s a loooong walk from the ship. Plan accordingly. 20min.
The meeting spot is literally in the parking lot of the police station. That was kinda cool. Hung out and waited.
Unfortunately, we were late leaving to get started. It resulted in being late later in the day. But not all because of this.
We got to the spot for the hike and falls, and we waited and waited for other groups to walk with us AND to complete their slide thru the falls. We didn’t see a need to have to wait so long. BUT THIS made us late getting back.
The lunch is FANTASTIC!!!
We also had the paparazzi do our pics for the excursion. They came out great!!! Def recommend that part. But, they will hit you up for $65 when other posts show they got them for $50. That’s what we paid, $50.
It’s all about timing. Getting there and getting started. If you have an early back on ship time between 3-3:30, you’re pressing yourself.
Which is unfortunate. Shouldn’t have to feel that way.
Overall, they did a good job. Just not 5 star worthy this time.

Good Experience! - This is a great adventure but the tour guides are a little hands off, considering how deep the water is and the height you are jumping/ sliding from. There is no one at the bottom to help you or at least to make sure you are good and get you to the side. I have done other adventures in other countries and you have guides at the top/beginning and at the bottom when you come down. The guides were nice but too hands off compared to other excursions I have been on, and this would have easily been a 5 star excursion if not for that. The waterfalls are beautiful and the overall experience was good. You should definitely experience this but you and your group will need to help each other getting to each jump/slide.
Not to mention the chocolate tour was supposed to be a stop on this tour but we only stopped at a cigar place instead so I was disappointed because I do not smoke, drink alcohol nor coffee. I would have rather gone to the chocolate store.
