Itinerario
Inizia la tua avventura nella tranquilla zona rurale di Maimón, un pittoresco villaggio dominicano circondato da montagne, palme e fiumi. Qui potrete sperimentare l'autentica vita di campagna, osservare le piantagioni locali, vedere come vivono gli abitanti e godere di un ambiente naturale ricco di freschezza e ospitalità. È una tappa perfetta per scattare foto, interagire con la gente del posto e apprezzare la vera essenza dominicana prima di tornare al trambusto della città.
Di ritorno a Puerto Plata, visiterai l'affascinante Museo dell'Ambra, dove sono esposti impressionanti pezzi di questa resina fossilizzata, molti dei quali contengono insetti e piante conservati per milioni di anni. Qui scoprirete perché l'ambra dominicana è considerata una delle più preziose al mondo. Le guide spiegheranno come si è formato questo gioiello naturale e la sua importanza nella storia e nell'economia locale.
Esperienza in una fattoria locale: caffè, cioccolato e frutta tropicale: è qui che i sapori prendono vita! Presso un'azienda agricola a conduzione familiare, parteciperai a una degustazione guidata del caffè e del cioccolato biologici dominicani, famosi in tutto il mondo. Imparerai a conoscere il processo artigianale, dalla pianta alla tazza. Inoltre, delizierete il vostro palato con una varietà di frutta tropicale fresca di stagione.
A pochi passi dal centro, Calle Rosada vi sorprenderà con le sue facciate dipinte in colori pastello, i murales artistici e l'atmosfera affascinante. Questo luogo è diventato un luogo iconico per gli amanti della fotografia e per coloro che desiderano ammirare l'arte locale in un ambiente tranquillo e pittoresco.
Il cuore storico di Puerto Plata vi aspetta nell'Independence Central Park, circondato da eleganti edifici coloniali e dalla maestosa Cattedrale di San Felipe Apóstol. Questa chiesa, con la sua architettura neogotica, è uno dei simboli più rappresentativi della città. Qui potrete rilassarvi, osservare la scena locale, ascoltare musica dal vivo o semplicemente godervi la tipica atmosfera caraibica.
Scopri il processo artigianale del cioccolato dominicano in una piccola fabbrica locale. Imparerai come viene coltivato, fermentato e tostato il cacao e come viene trasformato in deliziose tavolette e prodotti derivati. Inoltre, potrete assaggiare cioccolatini naturali con diversi gusti e aromi, realizzati con ingredienti dominicani al 100%.
Situato sulla Puntilla del Malecón, il cartello di Puerto Plata è uno dei luoghi più visitati e fotografati della città. Da qui potrete godere di una vista spettacolare sull'Oceano Atlantico, sulla Fortezza di San Felipe e sul paesaggio urbano. È il posto perfetto per scattare una foto memorabile con le lettere colorate della scritta "PUERTO PLATA" e portare a casa un bellissimo souvenir della tua visita.
Costruita nel XVI secolo per ordine del re Filippo II di Spagna, la Fortezza di San Felipe è uno dei monumenti più antichi del paese. La sua funzione originaria era quella di proteggere la baia dagli attacchi dei pirati e oggi ospita un piccolo museo con cannoni, armi e reperti storici. Dalle sue mura si gode di una vista panoramica impressionante sul mare e sul Malecón. Un luogo ricco di storia, cultura e bellezza.
Concludi il tuo tour con una visita a una tradizionale fabbrica di sigari dominicana, dove esperti artigiani realizzano i sigari interamente a mano. Potrai osservare da vicino il processo di selezione, arrotolamento e confezionamento e scoprire perché la Repubblica Dominicana è uno dei maggiori produttori di sigari al mondo. È possibile acquistare anche prodotti di alta qualità come souvenir di questa esperienza culturale.
Godetevi una vista panoramica mozzafiato sulla città di Puerto Plata, dove il fascino urbano, la costa atlantica e il paesaggio tropicale si fondono. Da punti strategici e da alture naturali, è possibile ammirare l'intera città che si estende fino al mare, con le sue case colorate, il lungomare, il porto e l'Oceano Atlantico come sfondo.

I can't say enough good things about this excursion! Jahaziel was an amazing guide and person! He was so gracious and considerate of our needs. It was very hot the day we took the tour, provided us with water and food to keep us hydrated and nourished, and took us to the most amazing places! We visited a little village/plantation in the countryside where they grew mangos, coconut, bananas, educated us about local trees and plants they used for medicinal purposes, and even was able to try some hot tea made from local leaves, plants, and fruit they were boiling over a open fire. We visited a local chocolate factory where they make different products from the locally grown Cacao tree and pods, and was able to try and purchase their product. We visited the Amber Museum and many other local historical sites, and enjoyed that. But the highlight of the trip for us was a visit to the home of his friends, 85 year old grandmother, Ms. Carmen, out in the countryside. Even though there was a language barrier because we don't speak Spanish, and she doesn't speak English, she was so welcoming and gracious! She prepared us a cup of local coffee, (maybe the best I have ever had, and I love coffee!), we visited with her for a while with Jahaziel translating for us, took a walk through her garden, and fruit trees, and spent time with her just relaxing and talking under an open air building where her family gathers to eat dinners together that had a roof made from palm tree branches. We also visited a very small local bodega on the corner just down the road from Ms. Carmen's house, and the lady that owns the store was gracious to show us their local money and the way they do things out in the country side. If you have never been to Puerto Plato and want to get an real experience of local culture and sites, you need to tour with Jahaziel! I almost forgot to mention this! When it was around lunchtime, and we had came back into the city to tour some places like the chocolate factory, Amber Museum, etc., he pulled up to a local food vendor just down the road from his house, who was smoking and grilling different meats, rolled down his windows, purchased smoked meat and bread for us to enjoy as we continued on our tour! We had the most amazing day in Puerto Plata! You need to book this tour! You will not regret it!
Thank you so much Jonathan, it was a pleasure for us to meet you and your wife (Patricia). I will always remember you with great affection.
Our 5-hour tour with Jahaziel Tours was easily the highlight of our time in the Dominican Republic! Jahaziel gave our group of 6 a truly authentic and personalized experience that went far beyond a typical tour. We loved seeing how locals live and experiencing genuine Dominican hospitality firsthand. One of the most special moments was visiting Carmen, an absolutely beautiful soul who is 85 years young. She welcomed us with the biggest hug and made fresh coffee for us herself — a memory we will never forget. The tour through Maimón included local plantations, coffee, chocolate, tropical fruit tastings, and breathtaking countryside views. We also explored the heart of Puerto Plata and enjoyed spectacular ocean views from Fortress San Felipe. Jahaziel was incredibly informative without overwhelming us with information, and he customized several stops based on our interests and requests. Transportation was modern, comfortable, and spotless, complete with WiFi, ice-cold beverages, and much-appreciated AC. Jahaziel was a safe, skilled driver and an AMAZING guide who made us feel welcome everywhere we went. One of the coolest surprises was the incredible drone footage he captured of our family from a stunning hillside home overlooking the city. Every detail of this experience felt thoughtful, personal, and unforgettable. If you want a true local experience in Puerto Plata, book with Jahaziel Tours — you will not regret it!
Thank you for your beautiful words, welcome whenever you like, my greetings to the family!
We were given the upmost service from a very friendly owner/driver (Jahaziel) of our AC equipped, large van. Two of our group of 5 had mobility issues and he adapted the trip for us. He also adapted our trip to what our interests were. He is a local person who knows the area and was easy to listen to and understand. I highly recommend him and this tour for others. Jeff S
It was an honor for me to meet you all, greetings to everyone, especially your mother-in-law
This was a superb experience. We hit all the points on the itinerary, as well as visiting a family in the countryside, and returned to the ship in plenty of time. It was a terrific introduction to Puerto Plata and the Dominican Republic. Our guide could not have been more patient, informative and kind. I highly recommend this excursion.
We are delighted to have been part of your first experience in Puerto Plata and the Dominican Republic. We would be delighted to welcome you back for another memorable experience in the future!
It was the absolute best. My husband really enjoyed himself! We both had such an unforgettable experience. Learned a lot. The transportation had ac & drinks. The countryside was super enjoyable & relaxing. The city tour was perfect. Also the owner who gave us our tour was awesome.
Welcome to the family! It was a pleasure for us to show you the most attractive and local aspects of our city. You guys are great!
Jahaziel was a fantastic tour guide. His driving was safe, and he gave us just the right amount of information without feeling overwhelmed. He planned our day based on the places we wanted to see. We highly recommend taking a tour with Jahaziel!
Thank you so much for your feedback! We're so glad to hear you enjoyed your experience. Our goal is always to create memorable moments, and it's incredibly motivating to know we achieved that with you. We hope to see you again soon!
This was a truly tailored VIP experience—everything we wanted and even more than we hoped for. From the moment he picked us up, we felt completely at ease knowing every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. We started with a visit to the countryside, where we enjoyed coffee at a beautiful home and learned about local life and culture in a way that felt authentic and personal. When we got hungry, he brought us to a fantastic local restaurant with some of the most amazing food we had during our trip. By the end of the day we were a bit tired, and he seamlessly adjusted the plan so we could do a driving tour instead of walking through the city and crowds. It turned out to be perfect—we still got to see all the major sights and hear the history while relaxing in the comfort of his van with cool drinks, great music, and wonderful commentary. I would highly recommend this experience for travelers of any age or group size. It was memorable, comfortable, and truly one of the highlights of our trip.
Welcome to my family. Thank you for a wonderful day, you are the best my friend Kasey and my brother Dominican Jhon.
A great day trip to get an understanding of the Puerto Plata people, history, and culture in the city and country.
Thank you for a good day, I hope to see you soon..
My wife and I had an amazing experience. Communication with Jahaziel was super easy and he instantly provided us with details regarding our experience. We spent the day with Francisco Acosta, and he was very informative, welcoming and just an amazing tour guide. We would definitely recommend Francisco! Jahaziel even popped up to introduce himself to us directly and check how things were going for us. We loved every moment of our experience.
You're always welcome, thank you for choosing us for your vacation.
Knowledgeable, excellent driver, explains everything clearly, carries water and soda. Highly recommend.
Thank you so much, it was a pleasure meeting you all.
