Puerto Plata: City Highlights Tour with Mount Isabel & Lunch
Explore Puerto Plata on this full version of the city tour! You’ll spend with us about 6-7 hours, discovering the real Dominican Republic. Our guides speak English, German, French, Polish and Spanish.
Experience the ride to the top of the famous Mount Isabel, and enjoy the bird’s eye view of the coast and Puerto Plata city. Go for a pleasant walk through the exotic National Park of Isabela Peak. Enjoy the vibrant nature in a botanical garden.
Then discover the colonial city: Independence Parque with the Saint Philip Cathedral and colorful old wooden houses around it, famous Umbrella Street and Dona Blanca Pink Street. Try fresh coconut from a street vendor! Have some free time for a cup of dominican coffee or a cold beer. You can find some souvenirs here if you wish. Explore the Saint Philip Fortress along the harbor bay and have a look at the fishing boats on the Malecon seaside boulevard.
In the afternoon you’ll have a typical dominican lunch: fish or meat with rice and beans. It’s called “bandera dominicana” – “dominican flag”. If you’re vegetarian or vegan we will arrange something different for you. Soft drinks during the meal are included.
After the meal you’ll visit the factory Macorix House of Rum where you can taste many kinds of rum and sugar cane liquors. It’ll make you feel the Caribbean vibes 🙂
Dominican Republic is known as the world’s biggest producer of organic cocoa. You’ll visit the organic chocolate factory in Puerto Plata where you can taste it.
Finally, we can drop by the supermarket for a while, so you can do some dominican shopping: rum, coffee, cacao, etc all in affordable local prices.
At the end of the tour you’ll be surprised how much can be done on Puerto Plata City Tour 🙂 It’ll be a day that will leave you with great memories from Dominican Republic! No time to waste, take it all.

The private tour was great! We saw so many highlights in one day as we didn’t have to hang around and wait for a lot of people at each place. And Antonio called ahead to the different attractions to determine which order to see them, based an where the tour buses from the cruise ships were. The only snafu was a mix up of where to meet up after we stopped for a beverage break. My partner and I ended up waiting on a street corner for more than half an hour before we were able to reconnect with our guide. Everything else went as planned and we appreciated that we were picked up and dropped off at our airbnb.
