The 15 Best Puerto Plata & Amber Coast Tours

141 reviewed

The green north coast trades the resort strip for a cable car, gingerbread Victorian streets and squirrel monkeys on your shoulder. These tours cover Puerto Plata and the Amber Coast: city walks, Monkeyland, the waterfalls inland, with prices, durations and which ones pair two sights into one day.

8.Puerto Plata City Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 193 reviews · from $50

A small-group Puerto Plata city tour with rum, cigars, amber, and chocolate, plus classic sights like the cathedral and fort.

“This booking was created by a taxi driver who isn't associated with any tourism , which led to many suspicious things. The driver did not offer any water, sodas etc that were part of the above package. He did not speak English, which led to more confusion and hectic. Had to loop in local port officials to get the authenticity of the driver, and as we have already prebooked the service and couldn't cancel on the day, just went with it. Highly disappointed with the experience.”
