Definitely recommend! I love going on cultural/historical tours when im in a new place. I felt safe with our tour guide, the food was great, and the day was packed with activities. Add this excursion to your next trip to DR !!!!
5 out of 5, Danilo was a great guide, friendly, charismatic, attentive, and very patient. Highly recommended, as he knows a lot about culture, flora, and food produced in the Dominican Republic; an unforgettable experience.
You will see a lot of things. Beautiful old church with statues and artwork, open air market, horses. A great day!
Tour bus never came, then lied about it and refused me a refund. American tourist beware! I would have given no stars but this system won’t allow it.
Our tour guide Danielo was incredible as was our chauffeur! From start to finish it was nonstop laughs and learning. No Mickey Mouse business it’s the real deal. Book it you will not regret!
This was the perfect cultural tour. A bit of everday life for real locals in the city, the country, small town and farm life. Our guide was patient and informative. Our driver was quite skilled for city traffic, mountain navigation and impossible parking made possible with him behind the wheel. I don't care for shopping but today I did. If you want a coffee mug or coffee from the place that grows it, take the tour. Taste chocolate from the tree our guide chose to process in front of you. Make a cigar for yourself or a friend. Ride a horse, swim near the brave surfers waiting for the perfect set. Bring tip money for the locals who let you into their home. And the street market! It was right out of a movie. I bought spices, so many inexpensive spices.
Driver Sandy was very puntual, when he picked me up. Guide Robinson was very knowledgeable Nd interacted with every one group, he spoke diffrent languages. Highly recommend 👌
Our tour guide was Teo, the excursion was fantastic. If you want to see a lot in a fairly short time, this is the excursion to book. Teo knew alll things Dominican. He was great. We had a little trouble getting on the correct transfer and were told our tour was cancelled for some reason, but it got worked out.
This is a true cultural experience of Dominica, see how the locals go about their day, the historical sites made it a very good experience. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and professional. The sites he took us on exceeded our expectations. At the end of the experience we felt connected with the people of Dominican Republic. Daniel gave us a very personal experience and i would recommend it for everyone.
They arrived on time and gave us an excellent tour. Had plenty of time at each activity. Got to see some very interesting sites.
