Great tour - Our guide/driver was on time picking us up. He was friendly, pleasant and informative. Despite bad reviews from other tours, we did not feel rushed or uncomfortable at any time. Would recommend.

Expert, relaxed, and unrushed city tour - We received a professional tour of Puerto Plata, with built-in flexibility for our specific requests. Alfredo was on time and provided a beautiful air-conditioned van in which to see the city. He provided us with many photo opportunities that we will always cherish. He was knowledgeable, kind, and fun. I would recommend this tour to anyone wanting a relaxed and unrushed city tour

City tour Puerta Plata - Very pleasant way to spend a few hours in Puerto Plata. Asked for an English speaking guide so driver brought along a buddy to help out. Vehicle was also very nice.

Puerto Plata - The rum factory was interesting. It included some history, and sampling. Then there was the area you could buy what you liked. The chocolate factory was much the same. History, samples, selling area. Chocolate was very good. The scenery was beautiful. Plenty of photo spots. Nothing hurried. Our driver/guide Santos was very accommodating. He took pictures of us in front of signs, cars, etc. He led us where we were going without walking off and leaving us. Very welcoming, friendly, kind, and it felt genuine not just put on for us.

Puerto Plata City Tour - Puerto Plata City Tour with Jose G was the best. He customized our tour, provided us with safe and reliable transportation, and made us comfortable, as first time visitors to the country. He was respectful and honest. I’d book with him every time I came out here.

Puerto Plata City Tour with Jose - Jose G. was an awesome tour guide. He was a safe driver and he customized the tour specifically for us. We didn’t want the cigar tour but he took us by the beach instead. He was patient, thoughtful and made us feel very comfortable. Highly recommend him.

Puerto Plata tour - Alfredo Sanchez was an amazing tour guide. He has his own private company and you can plan your own tour. He took us around the city. We toured a chocolate factory along with a rum factory. We also saw an old fort that was still standing. He can take you anywhere you would like to go at a much better price than the cruise ship.

Awesome tour guide! - Alfredo was fabulous!! So knowledgeable about the city and we felt like we saw everything we needed to see in a timely manner. He organized where we were going because we didn’t have any preferences and he chose well for us. He showed up on time and we would rather give our money directly to a native rather than booking through the cruise line. I would recommend him to anyone!!

Fun City Tour - Our guide Alfredo arrived on time at the port taxi area. We were all comfortable in a newer van. I believe he took us to all the stops listed except for Amber Museum, Gold Chocolate Factory and San Felipe Fort (only did a drive by). Note that the rum and chocolate factory tours consisted mainly of watching videos on how they are made, sampling the products, then given a chance to purchase. At the cigar factory, you actually saw employees hand rolled the cigars; however, you are then subjected to timeshare style hard sell. The guys in our party did this while the ladies chose to be dropped off at a store. The umbrella and pink streets were near each other. We enjoyed taking photos at these 2 locations.
 Alfredo was distracted multiple times with incoming calls. He told us he was the owner’s #1 right hand man so had to address issues on other tours. I would have liked a bit more narrative about the places we visited. Overall, we were happy with the experience.
