Reviews of the Santo Domingo Tour



It was a great opportunity to experience Dominican culture with Manny. I highly recommend it if you want a private tour of authentic Dominican culture.

Carlos was fantastic. He was very informative about the cities and the culture. We didn't feel pressured at any time. We're American and were surprised by how well he spoke English. That was excellent. We felt very comfortable and safe. I would choose him every time for any future excursion! 10 out of 10!

Once we booked our trip, Edwin was in contact with me almost daily until the departure date. Our vehicle arrived right on time. Henry was our tour guide, and it was a great experience. He was a fun, professional, knowledgeable, courteous, and very safe driver. He answered all our questions. A great trip, highly recommended.
