Dune Buggy/wed/muddy/coffee/beach - The Dune buggy is a must do in DR, the boys and Myself had a blast, the people are very friendly and nice.
Definitely would recommend to anyone with family or just friends.
my boys are 12 & 14 and loved every minute of it, especially when we got soaking wet/muddy. LOL

Do this don’t think twice - Had a blast was able to go to the beach the coffee was really good with 6 scoops of sugar I’m not a coffee drinker so I can’t tell you what it would have been without sugar lol but it was nice and smooth for me . Loved the shot mamajuiana is good it’s sweet smooth nice kick . They were very nice spoke English it felt like home I’d definitely do this one again so glad we did this over the bigger Atv it was safe fast and fun . We got splashed but I was prepared we had ponchos thank goodness it rained and it kept us dry and less dirty everyone else was soaked . The beach was beautiful when we walked down east initially it was very muddy and dirty but as you walk it gets shallow blue and a little island so glad I walked down it was worth it . Thanks if your thinking in this do it and give the man a tip . Top notch care and the baby was so mmcute a little Michelin man 😍🤗

Highlight of our trip - This was definitely something I would do again, whenever I’m in the Dominican Republic. This was a well organized excursion. Great communication, Mr. Garcia message me in advance to let me know the meeting point. It was lot of fun, you will get dirty .

*** SAFE, AFFORDABLE, NO-HASSLE FUN*** - My boyfriend and I were on a cruise to Puerto Plata and had a very short port in DR (8-5pm) and booked D’garcia the night before and was very impressed with the free pickup to/from the cruise port,along with the buggy adventure to a private beach with food, drinks, monkeys & horses followed by another stop at a different bar/restaurant with mamajuana u can take home :) they’re very hospitable, friendly and fun! we got some pictures with monkeys and piña colada on the beach. Don’t book overpriced cruise excursions, give back to the community and book with D’garcia!! No hassle, no unexpected charges, bilingual, and got back to the cruise port w extra time to spare!

We had a great time. Well... - We had a great time. Well worth the cost. Guides were very personable and we had a great time with them. No issues with transportation to or from the cruise port. Would definitely book this again.

A great time - It started off very well even from booking we got a WhatsApp message, letting us know where we will be picked up. When we were getting picked up, he was there before us ready. AC was on nice cool vehicle took us to where we’re getting in the ATVs. It was a very intimate experience. It wasn’t overcrowded. They took the time to explain how the car worked and I didn’t feel lost behind the wheel. We will take into a place to get coffee. The coffee is very good and the place to buy souvenirs. And then we took a trip to the beach where we had a chance to get a really, really big splashing get dirty. It was a really really great time and then we got a ride back to the ship.

Great experience! - Little difficulty figuring out where to meet for pick up. But once we figured out where everything else was great! I would do this tour again.
Bring something to cover your eyes, mouth and nose. They do sell bandanas and glasses. But I would bring googles and thicker but breathable mouth and nose cover.
First stop is a coffee tasting and souvenir shop (very pricey). Second is the beach, lots of people trying to sell you things, but a great stop. Get a pina colada! Third is the river. Great way to cool off and clean off a little.

Shari H - Really fun tour and on time. Good communication with vendor. Bring your own bandana or you can buy one for $5.00US.
We lost our wallet that came out of my husbands pocket (it was in a baggie) and they took us back on the trail and we found it!!! Tip: put any valuables in zippered pockets! Pictures cost $25US and were just ok. The backlight was bright so you cannot see us very well.
Would definitely recommend.

Unfortunately disappointed - Our guide didnt show up on time and then basically called my wife fat, when she asked about adjusting the seat belt, as she was having trouble. Because of delay in pick up and slow pace in which we arrived to the excursion site, coupled with the scheduled stops, there was no way we’d get back to the cruose port in time.
