Beautiful, privately guided tour - Interesting and relaxing tour that includes all the standards: the fort, Independence Square, Umbrella Road, Pink Alley, as well as detours in terms of amber, tobacco, rum, and chocolate. Friendly and dedicated guide who is happy to respond to the needs of guests. Lunch was particularly enjoyable in a local restaurant.

Private Tour - Ismael did a wonderful job. We really enjoyed the private tour. He was especially helpful with my mother who is older and has some difficulty getting around. Really enjoyed the lunch at a local restaurant. I would definitely recommend booking this, much better than what the cruise lines offer.

Excellent experience! Would highly recommend! - Ismael was fantastic! I would definitely chose this tour company again. Not only did we see the touristy places but the local neighborhoods and important buildings. We stopped for several great experiences, ate at a family owned local restaurant and stopped for a pina colada to soak up the local vibe. Ismael was informative and had great knowledge about the history of this great land. It’s a family owned company so they truly care about your experience. A+

Excellent company! - Excellent service. The van provided was roomy and in excellent condition. Both Ismael and wife were very personable. They made sure that we were well informed, were satisfied and included a great lunch with the tour. I would recommend them to anyone visiting the Caribbean islands.

Wonderful! - We had a great trip with Ismael! He is very knowledgeable about the history of Puerto Plata and personalized our experience throughout the city. We loved all the sights and “mini tours” of the rum and chocolate factories. Lunch was amazing! We are SO GLAD we chose this tour!

Excellent Tour - Elvin Arrived early, had a sign with our name, introduced himself, and Asked what we wanted to do first. Escorted us through the fort and kept checking to make sure we were happy. He had a nice car, with air conditioning, that was clearly marked with the company logo. At the rum factory, he introduced us to his boss, the owner Ismael, who made sure we were happy. At the end of the day, Ismael was also there to make sure we had a good day. Elvin accommodated us by taking us back downtown to get ice cream even though the tour was over before he returned us to the hotel. Elvin worked hard to lean more English words and to help us with our Spanish. He is very friendly and genuinely warm. We were offered water, coke, and rum at every stop. We visited the fort, rum factory, a pink alley, the umbrella district, a cigar shop, and chocolatier.

Great Experience - If you're going to do a city tour, highly recommend doing a private tour. It's about 2x more than a group tour, but you get to go at your own pace and have a personal touch. Ismael and company have a great city tour, hitting all the main tour sites and letting you get some shopping in.

The best part of our Crusie - Ismael’s tour was the true highlight of our trip. Everything was “custom” to what we wanted to do. He took us to see architecture, a lookout point, historical sites but didn’t push us to do things we didn’t want to do like cigars or rum stores. He was polite, his car was clean, and he took us to a more local place for the best meal of the trip. So good we wrote down the foods so we could try to make them at home! We traveled with older family members and he was incredible and pacing the guides for them. I could not recommend him higher!
