It is a nice trip but there is no distinction between the $50 dollar trip and the supposedly all inclusive $112 dollars one they one have run and beer and they serve everyone the buffet if you want lobster you have to pay $25 dollars extra so go to the trip but don’t pay for the all inclusive one that one don’t exist.

Let me just say, that i have done ATV tours many times, in DR, Mexico, etc... when i say - this one is different - i mean it! Ride along the beautiful beach under coconut palms... enjoy fresh air - not dust, stop for a swim at a private beach, visit local villagers. Try local food. Learn about Coconut oil making along the way... and i even bought a real machete from a local shop. 3.5 hours of pure riding - even my two teenage sons were satisfied. Great tour guides who were there to answer questions along the way. Under 1 hour ride from most hotels in a comfortable bus. Well worth the time and money spent. Recommendations - wear long pants - engines can get pretty hot and your calfs will feel it. Cover back of your neck with bandana - it will get burned. Observe how locals dress - they know best. Sunscreen for your face and arms and ears. Sunglasses. And make sure you bring cash for your guides and for shopping. Fresh marakuya juice and crab empanadas purchased from locals were a very nice snack. Highly recommend. Dima and Rustam - your guides are the best!

We had a great day touring the turquoise waters of the Dominican Republic on this first class boat. The crew and Joy all wanted to make sure we had the best time and were very communicative when booking. We had an on-time pickup at our hotel that brought us to the meeting point where we were met by Joy right away and given an overview for what to expect for the day. There is a lot of time to enjoy the boat and lay out on the nets at the front of the boat, and also a good amount of activities such as snorkeling and exploring Soana Island for an hour. The meal included was delicious! You wont regret booking this excursion, many of the other tours we saw were crammed with people and did not look nearly as relaxing as this tour. It can have up to 30 people, but we only had 10 people on our tour.

A comfortable bus will take you from the hotel and we will embark on our journey (drive time is 2 hours). Our first stop will be the Three Eyes cave. This cave got its name thanks to three crystal clear lakes located at a depth of 15 meters. However, in 1916, the fourth lake was discovered, which is considered to be the most spectacular. And we will definitely visit it! Our next stop will be the colonial city. Here we can plunge into the atmosphere of authenticity and feel the spirit of the Spanish conquerors. You will enjoy an exciting walk along the first street of the New World, a visit to the house of Diego Columbus, a fort of the 16th century and the first temple of the New World, where the ashes of Christopher Columbus were found. At the end, you will have lunch with a gorgeous view of the colonial square. Next, we will go to the eastern part of the city, where we will visit the Columbus Lighthouse.

From the Puerto plata hotels & villas, we’ll enjoy the beautiful landscapes of the Oriental Mountain Range as we drive the north cost before arriving in the small fishing village of samana at the southern shores of Samana Bay. There you will enjoy a quick breakfast prior to boarding the boat to Samana. We’ll cruise deep into the bay to whale watch. We will first reach Cayo Levantado, also known as Bacardi Island because of its close resemblance to the beaches Bacardi Rum once used for its famous commercials. Cayo Levantado is nothing short of a tropical oasis - a small island in the middle of the ocean with turquoise waters and white sands. We guarantee that your tour with us is an unforgettable experience We have the best bus and catamaran when going to the sanctuary of the whales the food is prepared with the best quality standards Our main adjective is that the experience is unique for each of our visitors

I booked Edwin Tejera to pick us up from the airport and bring us to Emotions. Our Travel dates: April 17th - May 1st, 2021. Edwin was there at the airport waiting for us which was a huge relief knowing our ride was there for us. Edwin also had a cold cerveza for me and a cold bottle of water for my spouse which was very refreshing after a long plane ride. His vehicle is in very good condition as in like new...... I highly recommend using Edwin because he was prompt, courteous and a very nice guy. So additionally I used his services to bring us to The Residence Suites at LifeStyle Cofressi beach for our next week. On the way I asked if he could find me some Dominican cigars so he took me to the Cigar Factory downtown Puerto Plata where we were greeted warmly and shown the various tobacco's from several countries. We continued on to Lifestyle where we enjoyed an additional 7 wonderful days. I also contracted him to pickup my daughter and son from the airport and bring them to the resort. And to follow up I had him pick us up and bring us back to the airport. Edwin speaks very good english and is very capable of transporting you to any excursion or other venues. He answered all of my questions and I will surely us his service every time I visit the Dominican Republic. Thank you Edwin for your excellent hospitality. My Best regards to you.
