Full Description
Get ready for a full immersion into the culture, history and scenic beauty of Puerto Plata. We start with a guided visit to a rum factory where you’ll learn about production and enjoy a tasting. Then we wander through the charming streets with colourful umbrellas hanging overhead (“Umbrella Street”) and the pink-painted “Paseo de Doña Blanca” (Pink Alley) — ideal for stunning photographs.
You’ll continue via the historic central park with its beautiful cathedral, and the seaside promenade (malecón) heading to the Fortress San Felipe which offers views of the Atlantic and the city’s heritage. After exploring town, you’ll shift to beach time: sink your toes into golden sand, swim in warm Caribbean waters and relax under the sun in a laid-back environment.
Throughout the day you’ll enjoy local insights, friendly guides and authentic Dominican flavour — with optional shopping stops for souvenirs such as rum, cigar or amber jewellery if you wish.
