Description

Begin with a convenient hotel or cruise-port pickup and drop-off aboard a safari truck or air-conditioned bus. Travel first to the Museo del Ámbar Dominicano (Amber Museum) to admire neo-classical architecture and learn about the island’s geological and cultural heritage. Take a short stroll to Umbrella Street and Calle de Doña Blanca—picture-perfect lanes lined with rainbow umbrellas and charming pink façades—where you’ll enjoy a coffee break and experience true Dominican ambiance. Continue to Independence Central Park and Puerto Plata’s grand Cathedral, where historic pedestrian streets reflect the city’s Victorian-style architecture. Next, gain a deeper understanding of the Dominican rum tradition with a guided visit and tasting at the Macorix House of Rum—sampling authentic dark rums straight from the distillery. Afterward, visit the coastal Fortress of San Felipe (Built 1577), a centuries-old stronghold with sweeping ocean views perfect for photo opportunities. Stop for a local Dominican lunch in the Puerto Plata province, featuring hearty dishes (such as rice, beans, chicken or fish, salad, and soft drinks—water and soda are included). After lunch, ascend to Isabel de Torres National Park, located atop Mount Isabel de Torres. Here you’ll marvel at panoramic ocean views, tropical flora, and even a Cristo Redentor statue. Finally, descend back to the city to be dropped off at your original pickup location.
