Recommended 100% - I'm so glad to come here. It's a place with five themed houses. There is the house of rum, tobacco, coffee, chocolate, jewelry and souvenirs. I recommend visiting them

A learning experience for a cigar user. - This was a free tour while we were staying at Secrets Royal Beach Resort. If you have never seen cigar rolling in person and had the process explained to you this is a nice tour. I would only spend 1 hr. doing the entire place. There is a nice store where you can buy Punta Cana items, a premium rum store and a store where they make their own chocolate. The free transportation was good getting to the stores, but terrible trying to get back to the resort. We waited1.5 hrs. to get a transport back to our resort.

Highlight of Punta Cana Trip - My family (except my 12-year-old niece) considered this a highlight of our trip to Punta Cana. Our excursion was included with another excursion we booked through our resort, but we would’ve gladly paid for this after our experience. While this is not really a “factory” tour/tasting, they do walk you through how cigars are made, explain the process, and demonstrate the rolling technique. You also get a complimentary cigar to try, which was a fun surprise. At the start, they mention there’s no pressure to buy anything — and that held true for most of the experience (aside from one skin cream vendor who was a bit more persistent). Note they accept USD, but be expected to provide your resort name and room number (I assume for commissions.) Beyond the cigars, there’s a lot to explore: a Larimar shop with a solid selection, a reasonably priced gift store (10–20% cheaper than our hotel’s), a rum tasting with an entertaining bartender, and a coffee shop where we ended up buying beans after enjoying a great sample. The chocolate tasting was also a hit — we didn’t see any production, and I’m not sure if it happens there, but the chocolate itself was excellent. Don’t miss the husk tea — it was surprisingly good.

Guide was fine & guide was fun. Shops in general weren’t as nice as other shop excursions we went on. - Shops were ok & guide was fun. We went on several other shopping excursions with cigar factories. Don Lucas was differently the disappointing one.

Did not happen, do not book - Do not book this tour!!! We have used Viator in the past with greay success and experience. However, this tour operator tool our money and did not pick us up. I called Viator twice on our trip to contact the tour operator and they never responded. We wasted our entire morning plus phone calls to Viator resulting in NO tour. Stay away from from this booking with Viator. We have asked Viator for a refund which hopefully we will get, but we will never get the lost time back on our trip.
