Traveler reviews
“This is a very nice excursion. Darwin was our tour guide and he was very attentive and knowledgeable about the culture. It was a comfortable van with air conditioning a plus.”
“Our driver Sandi and our guide Frank were fantastic. They were kind, courteous, and professional from start to finish. It was awesome getting to see outside of the resorts during our trip. The group is small enough to feel intimate but not overcrowded. Would definitely recommend again!”
“Our guide Alex and driver Samuel were GREAT. I rate this one as average because of the following: the horseback riding experience was awful and the conditions of the riding area were ABYSMAL and the smell was wretched. Aside from the fact that the horses were not listed as a part of the experience which is why we chose it, I know why we passed on it. This should be removed as a spot. The second reason is because we stopped at a “candy” store which was nothing more than a gift shop with people trying to sell us stuff. Now, I have no issue with supporting the local economy but given that each stop already has souvenir stands as a part of it, there is absolutely no need for there to be another stop for just souvenirs. Third and final reason was that lunch was at the end of the tour which is not a big problem and one that can be easily fixed with listing that in the description so that folks know OR, add 5-10 dollars to the cost and then have snacks available throughout the tour because with a 725 pickup and lunch at 1…that’s not a good thing. Like I said, Alex and Samuel were not the issue but the overall structure of the tour leaves much to be desired. BTW, lunch was very good! Dont take this tour until it’s changed.”
“It was a great experience going to the beach and horseback riding is very fun. The food is very good and the guide is very friendly.”
“The drinks during the tour were a nice touch. Water, rum and juice were always available and were very refreshing. A very good quality service, it was a magnificent experience!!”
