An active half-day at Damajagua (27 Waterfalls) from Puerto Plata: forest hike, jumps and slides, included Dominican buffet, and safe gear.
“Great value, we got a private comfortable van, and our driver assisted us all the way. Definitely better compared to the cruise tour where you pay 2x the price for the same less private service.”
Adults-only Cap Cana snorkel with coral nursery stops, unlimited drinks, grilled lunch from a floating kitchen, plus easy pickup in Punta Cana.
“My wife and I had an awesome experience with this trip. The crew made it such a fun time between the drinks, the food and the dancing we had smiles on our face the whole time. The snorkeling spot wasn’t the most picturesque or diverse, but we were still able to snorkel for an hour total in two different locations.”

Sosua Party Boat combines snorkeling, tropical drinks, and BBQ on a catamaran cruise with a fun crew and flexible sailing options.
“Everything was awesome, the staff was attentive and informative the boat was festive, and I would definitely do it again.”
Early pickup, a fast boat to Saona, a 40-minute Laguna Azul sandbank stop, and nearly 3 hours on the island with lunch and drinks included.
“Herded like cattle in large groups. Waited on van driver or on boat captain many times (island time is normal). Bring your own breakfast as pit stop cafe is almost inedible (or can get junk food at grocery store). Warm rum & coke or water as oRead more”
Damajagua 7 Waterfalls from Puerto Plata: swim under cascades with helmet and vest, guided hike, Dominican lunch, small group pickup.

Private Puerto Plata city tour with rum, amber, cigars, forts, a chocolate factory, and Dominican lunch, plus photo-friendly streets.

Punta Cana safari combo with 8-line zip line, horseback riding through cacao country, and dune buggy adventure plus food in one 6-hour day.
“Amazing experience. Every single person who worked with us that day provided a great experience. We had a great day with the horses, zipline, and buggies. And even the lunch that was provided absolutely delicious.”
Catamaran trip from Punta Cana to Saône Island for a sandy beach sandbank, lunch with an open bar, and Latin music, starting 7am.
“Overall good, definitely not a small group and we left our hotel at 7am and didn’t make it back until 6pm (more than 8hrs and travel time was 2.5hrs each way since we were staying at breathless, also had 2 buses and several stops later), the cRead more”

Saona Island catamaran day trip from Punta Cana with hotel pickup, Cotubanamá National Park beach time, possible natural pool starfish.
“I like to give small businesses the beef it of the doubt, so I booked with them despite the few reviews that said it was a bad experience. I wish I had listened to them. We started by having no idea who was picking us up, and (unless you speaRead more”
Santo Domingo city life tour from Eduardo Brito metro: dembow studio, Dominican bites, cable car views, carro de concho, and train rides.
“Four Canadians went on the tour with Juan in February 2025. A little nervous because our ship guide suggested that the area in which we were meeting him was a little sketchy. Took an Uber and Juan was waiting for us with a friendly smile! Was able to comfortably walk around Santo Domingo with him to see the local areas. Juan provided lots of interesting information about the different communities we visited. We loved being able to see how the residents live and have all of our questions answered. Had a fabulous homemade lunch, stopped in neighbourhood stores and markets, tried different forms of transportation and had a great time.…”
Early-morning Saona Island day trip from Santo Domingo with Blue Lagoon stops, beach buffet, and open bar on the water and island.

Punta Cana 4x4 ATV adventure to Emerald Coast, Montaña Redonda, and quiet Playa Limón, with lunch, transport, and mountain climb included.
“The tour was ok. The beaches were beautiful. Not 6 hours though. It lasted 10 hours. The tour guides did not speak any English so we didn’t really know what was going on whenever we stopped. The bus ride was extremely long. We were exRead more”
