Tour Options
Itinerary
This island is known for its good Rum, here we will be shown how they make it and we will also try 8 types of Rums
This place is not where the Christ the Redeemer is located in Puerto Plata (as it is removed from the city center) but in this place that is part of the Isabel de Torres mountain we will see one of the best views, amazing to take pictures of the landscapes!
For lovers of history and jewelry this is a mandatory stop, we will know where and how they find the beautiful Amber and Larimar stones
The hidden history of this alley makes us stop to take a photo, it is totally pink
One of the most visited places in the city, surrounded by lots of joy, shops and cafes
This tour along the city's colorful boardwalk is a beautiful experience with the beautiful blue beach on one side, we can also see the famous statue of Poseidon
The experience of trying different types of organic chocolate from the Dominican Republic cannot be missed.
This is one of the oldest places in the city, it is around the sea, its beauty is unique
We have selected this beach for its beauty and privacy. It is also a good option since it has good restaurants, bathrooms around, umbrellas and beach chairs.

Jose was a great tour guide with positive, friendly energy. He guided us through the town taking us to a jewelry museum and chocolate factory before our stop at the beach. It was a great, easy way to explore on our cruise stop and we highly recommend it!
Thanks for your kind words!! We really appreciate it
We had a great time with Elian! He was so knowledgeable and very accommodating to our group of 10 ranging from 13-70!
We had a wonderful time with you here as well
Great time with Elian! He was very knowledgeable and so sweet with our family of 10 ranging in age from 13-70.
Thanks so much for coming to Puerto Plata! ♥️
Phenomenal experience from start to finish! We had a private tour with Joseph Alvarez and he was amazing! On our tour of the country area, we were given a treat by visiting a local farm stand and learning about the indigenous plants, fruits, drinks, and tobacco history of the island. Upon driving to the city, we visited the Rum Factory, a chocolate experience, Amber and Larimar shops, the downtown area with time for photos and stops at Paseo de Doña Blanca and Calle de las Sombrillas and independence plaza. Joseph was extremely knowledgable, friendly, and proud to answer all our questions and share his beautiful home. Due to heavy traffic, we did not visit the beach at Playa Dorada, but stopped at a beach along the Malecon. The beach was not as "picturesque" as the advertised one at Black Jack Tar, but we enjoyed the stop and free time and it also allowed us time to stop at the Fort on the way back. Our only wish was that we had more time to explore and visit this beautiful area. We will definitely be back and could not recommend this tour highly enough!
Thank you for recommending E&J Tours. We truly appreciate your support and hope to welcome you back to Puerto Plata on your next visit! 🇩🇴😊
Jose picked us up inside the port and gave us a wonderful tour of DR. He was with us every step of the way and gave us time to explore. Jose navigated the town with great experience and provided a clean, comfortable, air conditioned van. Highly recommend E & J Tours.
Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that Joseph provided such a great experience and made your visit to the Dominican Republic enjoyable from start to finish. We take pride in offering safe, comfortable transportation and personalized service, and it’s great to know that his knowledge, professionalism, and attention to detail helped make your day special.
The tour was only okay. The driver was difficult to understand. He took us to a rum factory, a chocolate factory, and an amber store, all of which were attempting to sell their products. He then took us to a nice beach and restaurant. Too much solicitation of sale for our liking.
Our goal is to provide visitors with an authentic experience of Puerto Plata, which includes stops at local rum, chocolate, and amber producers. While these locations do offer products for sale, there is never any obligation to purchase, and we understand that this style of tour may not be for everyone. We also apologize if communication with your driver was difficult at times. We continually work with our team to improve the experience for all guests and appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the beach and restaurant stop, and we thank you for your honest feedback as it helps us improve our tours.
We LOVED IT! Jose was amazing! He was so fun and happy and really made the tour what it was! We got to do everything promised and was a great day in the Dominican Republic. Thanks again, Jose!
JOSE JOSE JOSE!!!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts about his service
We had a great time seeing beautiful Puerto Plata eating great food meeting. Nice people doing some shopping. I even got to visit the Biblioteca. Highly recommended.
Wow, it seems like you enjoyed the time here!!!
Joseph was amazing! Very accommodating and friendly loved his country and gave us great pointers for next time. We did not like how pushy the vendors were in the countryside except Julian!! Man he was amazing! But others did not give us room to look. Also beware of those asking you if you want pictures as they were trying to push for us to pay them more. It was very uncomfortable.
This is a very honest opinion, thanks for sharing it with us ♥️
Wonderful experience, very knowledgeable about the area and very accommodating to our large group!!
Thanks for bringing your family to the DR!
