If this was at the Waterfront on the south end of Puerto Rico, I loved it. The Restaurants served the very best Mofongo with Chillo and other excellent foods. It was family friendly just like Put In Bay Ohio.

Best, most amazing activity I’ve ever done, literally anywhere in the world! Better than all the skydiving, white water rafting, hang gliding, para sailing, para gliding, spalunking, surfing, etc I’ve done before - seriously, this adventure was the most fun I’ve ever had. Andre & Desey are so skilled that you feel as comfortable as one can possibly feel going rappelling down waterfalls in the rainforest (don’t worry, the thrill adds to the excitement & you feel invincible when you conquer your first waterfall rappel!). The same is true of their skills for the hiking & rock climbing. Andre rappels like a spider & Desey scales rock walls like freakin Spider-Man (except better cause she doesn’t need webs). But beyond that, they really go out of their way to ensure everyone has the best time. Our group of 6 from 3 different places had so much fun that despite not meeting before that day, we met up again for dinner our last night in Puerto Rico. That was all due to Andre & Desey making the experience so fun that friendships were inevitable. There’s no way I’ll visit PR without making sure they’re free to take me & friends rappelling down waterfalls cause WOW! You also get the most incredible views, learn about the rainforest (not El Yunque; this is a private reserve, which makes it extra special cause no one else is around!), and swim in natural pools at the bottom of the waterfalls (on the rappelling trip). I can’t emphasize enough how magical this experience was. Andre & Desey, thank you for giving me & Ellie the time of our lives. We’ll be back!!

I booked Edwin Tejera to pick us up from the airport and bring us to Emotions. Our Travel dates: April 17th - May 1st, 2021. Edwin was there at the airport waiting for us which was a huge relief knowing our ride was there for us. Edwin also had a cold cerveza for me and a cold bottle of water for my spouse which was very refreshing after a long plane ride. His vehicle is in very good condition as in like new...... I highly recommend using Edwin because he was prompt, courteous and a very nice guy. So additionally I used his services to bring us to The Residence Suites at LifeStyle Cofressi beach for our next week. On the way I asked if he could find me some Dominican cigars so he took me to the Cigar Factory downtown Puerto Plata where we were greeted warmly and shown the various tobacco's from several countries. We continued on to Lifestyle where we enjoyed an additional 7 wonderful days. I also contracted him to pickup my daughter and son from the airport and bring them to the resort. And to follow up I had him pick us up and bring us back to the airport. Edwin speaks very good english and is very capable of transporting you to any excursion or other venues. He answered all of my questions and I will surely us his service every time I visit the Dominican Republic. Thank you Edwin for your excellent hospitality. My Best regards to you.

Great walking tour and lots of historical info by our guide. Tour meets at El Convento hotel. Walked to the fort and all through it - lots of stairs! And then through the town of the city. Since I came to tour directly from the airport, I was able to leave my bags there while on the tour. Paid a nice tip. Guide even gave us water and drove us wherever we needed to be after!!! He got a nice tip too. Ended up walking 20,000 steps this day so be prepared. Very nice and worth the $.

We really enjoyed Star Fish Tours. Our tour guide was born and raised on St John. She talked a lot about what it was like to grow up on the island and how locals used the flora for natural remedies, along with giving a thorough tour of the island. It was absolutely fascinating and I highly recommend to anyone. If it’s your first time, try to book one of the tours early in your trip. It will help to get your bearings.
