Great day in Puerto Plata
Our guide Junior Gomez was extremely helpful and accommodating. We travelled with our mother who has mobility issues and he was very helpful to guide her on and off the bus. He is very knowledgeable and provided a good history of the area.
Would definitely recommend this tour! We went to the chocolate factory, rum tour, tour of Umbrella Street and Oceanside.

We had a great time at the tour. Our three year old especially loved the chocolate factory. We liked the fact that we visited multiple spots in just 3 hours.

On the town with Aribel
Our family cruise to Amber Cove and decided to take a tour of the city. Arabella showed us around Puerto Plata and our time spent. There was amazing! He is professional, knowledgeable, and very easy to talk to. He even took us to a restaurant and the food was delicious. This is a must do tour if you want to indulge in the culture in an enjoyable family, friendly environment.

Excellent tour guide !
First of all, our guide Jonathon was excellent! Very knowledgeable. For us the tour the was just enough 3.5 hours. The Umbrella Street stop, while touristy, was very cool for photos. Macorix House of Rum and Del Oro Chocolate Factory were also great stops along the tour.

A day excursion at Amber Cove
This was well worth the money. The sites from top the hill. To all the knowledge you are told while on tour. The rum tasting is amazing and the chocolate tasting was good. Bothe umbrella and pink alley are worth visiting.
