Fantastic tour in Italian With Cristina - In Puerto Plata, we toured the city in Italian with Cristina. We could not make a better choice, I had already understood from the messages that it would be a great guide and then we only had that confirmation. The tour is suitable for everyone and in the right time required by the ship: you can get the right overview of the whole city and enjoy the beach a bit. Cristina is very nice and helpful with everyone super recommended ❤️

My husband and I... - My husband and I absolutely loved this private tour! Gerson was the perfect guide for showing us around Puerto Plata. I loved that we were able to swap some activities on our itinerary and he even took us to a wonderful local spot for lunch and coffee. He was friendly and personable guide and shared lots of information and history about Puerto Plata. We got to see all the major highlights including the chocolate factory, umbrella street, pink alley, the downtown/parks area, and the fort. We had a perfect day! I would definitely book them again.
