Awesome trip. Seavis Island Special....5-6 hours on private island. Lots of food. Open bar (I dont drink) but was available. Awesome staff. Read Less

No excursion as we value our lives. We never left the secured area of the Cruise Port due to the violence that occurs in the D.R. This shouldn't even be considered a "Cruise Port" as it is extremely dangerous to leave the Cruise Port area. Read Less

We liked the different vendors there and the free shots of Rum in the duty free. Read Less

This was a great time, definitely recommend, small children may be a little afraid because the monkeys jump all over you. Read Less

Walk out of terminal area, and hire a driver to show you around. Cost averages around $25 per person if you have a group join you! Read Less

We made reservations to Dreams Resort (which changed to HILTON THAT DAY so I think they are doing away with the day pass). It was only $65 pp for all inclusive and then we took a cab for the 7 of us and three others for $15 pp round trip. The resort was lovely with a beautiful beach, bars everywhere and a place on the beach to get fresh cut fruit (as there isn't much fruit on the boat). We ate at their buffet which was really mediocre but the drinks and fruit were great. Read Less

We were thinking this port was amber cove, oh what a difference. Next time we come hear we will plan an excursion. Very clean and nice people. Read Less

Good shopping in the port area . Good deals . Read Less

We took ourselves to the Casa de Campo resort (a deluxe hotel a short taxi ride from the port). They do day passes https://www.casadecampo.com.do/vacation-packages-offers/daytour/ and we hung on their beach and went riding in their ranch The horseback riding cost the following: ½ hour - US$39.00 p/p 1 hour - US$74.00 p/p 2 hour - US$116.00 p/p This was a lovely day away from the crowds of the ship Read Less

We did our own excursion and rented a day pass from resortforaday.com for an all inclusive pass at the Dreams La Romana resort. Absolutely AMAZING and worth every penny. The resort and beaches were gorgeous, drinks were strong and plentiful and they even had a kids camp that my kids went to and loved. This gave us a nice 1 hour break to relax by the pool and enjoy some quiet time. After visiting this resort, I would actually love to fly back and stay! Read Less

The ziplining in LaRomana was amazing. Great views. Very fun Read Less

Hated it. Once you step out the gates they start begging for money and to buy their items. It was horrible. Went downtown and it was so bad, got right back on next shuttle back to hotel. The people are overly aggressive and it seems dangerous. Read Less

Took a bus for $8 per person to Altos De Chavon. Nice place for a few pictures. There is a small museum and a few shops. Bus picked us up right where it dropped us off. Very easy and professional. Read Less

Took a bus to a village and walked around, shopped at the terminal. Read Less

Stayed close to port and bought a couple items from the marketplace. there were $5 buses that took you 6 minutes into town but I hear the ppl in the marketplace were very aggressive, there were impoverished children there asking for money and ppl who offered to take you "somewhere else, just around the corner for better bargains".. This was the one port I had no interest in exploring. Read Less

Again got taxis to a local beach, easy to do, nice island. Read Less

My wife and I went into town to see what the downtown looked like. We had a drink at the newest cleanest looking business "Papa Johns" and sat on their patio. The entire time a young kid dressed in a black hoodie paced back and forth beside the business carrying a Remington 410 shotgun with a pistol grip slung over his shoulder. The waitress told us he was there to protect us..........Cheque please!! Read Less

Walked through cruise port and caught communal taxi to Bayahibe beach. All taxi fares shown on board next to where taxi park. A third of the price being offered on the ship, with return time mutually agreed by passengers. Plenty of loungers and space to chill out on lovely beach, just pull your lounger to your peace of quiet. Got rained off but consoled ourselves with couple of HUGE beers and free wi fi. Don't waste $$$ on the the train from port down to town, armed guards and not much to see, was the reports. Read Less

Took a cab tour vendors to pushy Read Less

An ugly port overall and felt very unsafe Read Less

We did a tour with Seavis it was great Read Less

It was really fun, Monkeyland was awesome! Read Less

Nothing to do here. We stayed on the boat. Read Less

We took a bus to downtown and got swindled by the locals. As you get off the bus they swipe you away to their booth and you get bombarded by vendors surrounding you trying to sell their goods. It's next to impossible to escape them and even if you do buy they still rip you off by not giving back exact money. You want to escape so badly that you really don't even care anymore! Read Less

beggers everywhere, made me feel horrible. Read Less
