Bad
I had booked this tour far in advance, on that day of the tour I tried several times to contact the person concerned. Never got a response. Location is incorrect, no one in that area knows of anything from the company. SCAM
Then the tour is set to ‘cancelled’ (few hours later)
Operator response
We are sorry you had this experience, unfortunately we cancelled the service weeks in advance as do to construction in the colonial zone we are not operating. Also the full refund was submitted to you. We never received a called or a text from you.
We hope you enjoyed your stay In the Dominican Republic. For future reference please keep us in mind as we are sure you will enjoyed our product.

Awesome time in the D.R.
The tour guide was very nice and accommodating. They did not have seated scooters so if you are a bit disabled this would not be for you. There was a lot of walking but it was a really good time. It felt authentic and was a great time!

Scooting through Santo Domingo
A great way to see the historical sites of Santo Domingo. The tour guide was great to point out future dining and shopping. I recommend doing it a Sunday morning when traffic is very light.

LEAVE EVERYTHING CLEAR BEFORE BOOKING
The guide very friendly and willing to help us. However, I recommend writing to the WhatsApp of the agency before taking the tour because they canceled my reservation because they could not contact me a day before, but precisely that day I was flying from my country to Santo Domingo. I was able to coordinate with the agent, but things weren't 100% accomplished. There was also no Scooter because there were threats of rain but it never rained and the price charged was for scooters because there are many tours and at less prices. Overall good service, but improveable.
