the premier "PUERTO PLATA CITY TOUR" Shore Excursion
$98 per person
Book this All-Inclusive Best of Puerto Plata City Tour for a 5 hour uptown glimpse into Dominican life.
From the time we pick you up in an air-conditioned bus at port until we return you to your ship, our friendly and knowledgeable guides will keep you entertained with Dominican history, folklore, great food and local rum drinks all day long.
Mount Isabel
Our first stop is Puerto Plata’s majestic Mount Isabel with incredible panoramic ocean and city views from the summit at 2,555 feet / 855 meters above sea level. The drive up is picturesque passing through a small village and a peek at how the locals live. Don’t forget your camera or cell phone. You’ll want photos of the breathtaking views of Puerto Plata and the Atlantic Ocean.
At the top you’ll also discover beautiful tropical gardens and a statue of Christ the Redeemer (a smaller replica of the one in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil).
MACORIX
After driving back down the mountain we head to RON MACORIX HOUSE OF RUM! Here you'll learn the history of how rum became the most important export of the island, how it is made and aged and then, you’ll sample all the different flavors Macorix offers!
Ask for seconds of the ones you like best!
Ocean Boardwalk (Malecon) Lunch
From Macorix we'll head to Fortaleza San Felipe for a quick look around before going to a vibrant oceanfront restaurant for lunch. You'll choose your lunch on the transport so we can pre-order your meal and drink selections to keep the tour on track.
The food is delicious and the atmosphere simply relaxed.
Walkabout In Puerto Plata
After lunch we'll leave the restaurant and head to Puerto Plata's town square for a quick look at the Victorian architecture followed by a walk to Paseo Doña Blanca (Pink Street) for some photo ops. A short jaunt over to Umbrella Street for more photos which leads us to Espigon Cigars.
ESPIGON
A local dancer will first dance for you and then...
At the top of Umbrella Street we find Espigon Cigars, an authentic cigar rolling factory and
humidor! Here you’ll learn about the history of tobacco on the island, you'll roll your own cigar and sample more of our famous local rum and mamajuana!
But we're not done yet! In the Dominican Republic music is as important as the air we breath and no visit to the island is complete until you've danced! A local dancer will first dance for you then, teach you a few basic steps and you'll Fiesta & Bachata like a Dominican until it’s time to return to the ship!
