Unfortunately we are unable to review your excursion, due to rhe driver not picking us up. We were told to be out front at 0810, we were there at 0750. We saw 2 busses that looked like the one on your page go past our hotel. We waited until 0840 and then we requested a full refund. We know that it was not a private tour, but we should have been told that we would wait up to 30 minutes or longer to be picked up. If we would have been given that information we would not have booked it.

It went 2 hours longer than we were told. Made unnecessary stops. Could not understand the guide The cigar factory was good. We basically rode a bus for 7 hours. Was the worst excursion we have taken. Was not worth the money.

All of it was alright but we did one with tui in 2018 which more time was spent on the plantation showing us how coffee and chocolate is done and giving everyone a chance at grinding the coffee and chocolate. Everything was very rushed on this trip plus we didn’t get to do the beach photo stop

We enjoyed travelling around the Dominican Republic and seeing some of the countryside and towns. However, the guide gave very brief descriptions when we stopped. No information while we were travelling as to where we were and what was around.

Het schooltje was dicht omdat er blijkbaar schoolvakantie was. Dit was voor ons de belangrijkste reden deze excursie te boeken omdat wij onze zoon wilde laten zien hoe de kindjes in dit land leefde. Dit was vooraf niet duidelijk. De tour door de kerk, huis en markt zeer vlugtig, geen tijd om stil te staan om te kijken. Tegelijkertijd voor de markt niet erg ivm drukte, smalle straatjes, stank en viezigheid. Behoefte snel weer weg te willen. Gidsen zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Rit zelf leuk

La visite su marché ne devrais pas faire parti du safari, car la viande est suspendu en plein soleil et avec des mouches dessus et les animaux encore vivant comme les poules sont entassé les une sur les autres sans eaux en plein soleil , sans parler de l odeur insupportable. Retirer la visite du marché

Everything was enjoyable and educational however the pot holes in the road and the speed bumps were excessive.

Fragen Sie zuerst alle, ob jemand zum Macao Beach möchte, bevor Sie hin fahren. Wir sind umsonst hingefahren und keiner wollte hin. Zeitverlust! Deswegen habe ich mein Mittag im Hotel verpasst und musste hungrig auf Abendessen warten.

No food at all, 1 drink given late on. All about spending money and tips. Really disappointing if you wanted to understand the culture more. Wouldn’t recommend. Chaotic at the end.

This trip was amazing, and shows you so much of the local culture. All in all, the best trip we have done on a holiday. Our guide JJ, was really knowledgeable and fun, and the driver was the same. Would really recommend this experience! Great fun, and a really good day out.
