We went horseback riding and hiked to a beautiful waterfall, then had a lovely home-cooked lunch in a local woman's home. Jose was extremely knowledgeable, his energy is infectious! Our two boys, ages 11 and 14, will never forget it! read less

We went to three beautiful waterfalls and ate a delicious Dominican lunch at a cool country restaurant with great scenery. Jose took great pictures and sent them to us which was a huge bonus. They were very friendly and knowledgeable about Dominican culture and scenery. I definitely recommend Jose and would book again for a different tour next time. read less

I liked the food, the beach, the restaurant experiences, and my tour guides, Jose Uribe and Francis Silvestre. I would totally do this experience all over again. I was able to try locally grown and cooked food such as guanabanas, mangoes, bananas, cocoa, chocolate wine, red snapper, octopus salad, and so much more! My tour guides were willing to explain a lot of stuff about the island and take pictures of me in places if I wanted to. I got to learn how chocolate is made in the factories there and all the delicious food Dominicans have there as well as what their lives are like. All the people I encountered were really sweet and genuine and it is an experience that anyone should pay for; words cannot describe how amazing this excursion was! More read less

Despite that, with such a large group, it could be hard to hear the explanations of the various historical stops, our guide was really warm and friendly, and happy to chat or answer questions, as was the young woman who helped shepherd our group. In all, it was a delightful few hours' easy walking tour. read less
