Love Popdominican travel tours! - We love Rigo! He gave us such an awesome tour of Puerto Plata, and he stopped at a place for a wonderful lunch near the beautiful beach. He took us to the rum factory, cigar factory and let us shop in a great shopping area. He is so friendly and kind and we just love being with him. He and his drivers are the best! We will always chose his company whenever we are in Dominican Republic!

City Tour - We did the city tour with Rigo in Feb 2020, it's just taken me a while to write the review, but I promised I would! He's very knowledgeable and we had a lovely time on the tour.

Great Way to see Amber Cove - We were contacted with specific instructions on where and when to meet our driver. We were meant by a very pleasant and kind young man named Augustin. As I have a mobility issue, he took careful precaution helping me at each stop. Augustin is very knowledgeable, friendly, professional and extremely likeable. He showed my husband and I a wonderful time and we highly recommend Augustin! This is a very good way to learn about and enjoy your time in port and to meet the people of Amber Cove! Thank you again, Augustin!!!

A fun tour - This was a fun tour. Rigo was very friendly. A good way to see a lot of the city. However, the “factory tours” are very brief. We spent about 15-20 minutes at a rum factory and sampled a lot of rum, which was fun. The cigar and chocolate factories are more like a store with a few samples. The amber museum is a jewelry store. Our salesperson there was very pushy and the jewelry was very expensive compared to other places.

Disappointed - We were very disappointed in this tour. It started a half hour late because Rigo was “helping” others. The stops were all places to buy—rum factory, chocolate shop, jewelry shop, etc., none of which held any charm or interest. At the rum stop we were directed into a long hall and he said he would meet us there. We stood around for almost 10 minutes in the dark with no place to even sit down, no Rigo, nothing. So we all walked through, no tour, samples, information. We thought he spent so much time organizing others that he basically forgot about us.
