“This was. A great experience! We were well taken care of and we had so much fun. Great food, great activities, and great employees! My only complaint is that we wore the wrong shoes for horseback riding and my wife got a blister. We had to go get some bandaids afterwards. Maybe it should be communicated the dress code for the day so we can be comfortable. Other than that, it was perfect!”

Puerto Plata combo tour with priority Damajagua access, 40-minute horseback ride, and six zip lines, plus Dominican lunch and pickup.
“There was no Premium/exclusive access to the waterfalls. The lineup at the waterfalls was rediculas. Over 1.5 hours of waiting. Our group got paired with elderly people, so we hiked at a snails pace and stopped every 5 minutes so they could catch up and rest. The ziplines were awesome. The horses were great. The staff was amazing, especially if you get Samuel as your guide. Last thing, THERE WAS NO RUM INCLUDED at any part of our tour, and we asked probably 10 times, and showed him that it said "Rum and soft drinks" included. It was not.”
