Overview

Experience the best of both worlds on one VIP excursion!
This is not your typical sightseeing tour; it is a complete dive into the heart of Puerto Plata, from its vibrant historic streets to authentic local flavours and traditions.

What makes this experience different:

Unique Dual Experience: combine a panoramic city tour with a visit to a local estate, something few tours offer. You can appreciate the architecture and history, and then taste the coffee, chocolate and tropical fruits directly from their origin.

Totally Private and Personal : forget about crowded buses. Includes a modern vehicle with A/C, Wi-Fi and an exclusive guide-driver. Everything adapts to the pace of the visitor for a more intimate and relaxed experience.

Guaranteed Authenticity – allows you to connect with true Dominican culture through its flavours, history and people.
