Best local experience
delyco, Mar 2024
We had the most fabulous tour experience. Edwin transport tours provided us with exceptional island information along with the just right amount of stops and personal service. I highly recommend to anyone interested in a local guide.
Great driver and tour guide. Edwin tours is a great choice.
Robert_K, Mar 2024
Our tour guide and driver were great! They gave so much info and made sure we stuck together. One person wanted to go back to purchase something she had seen he said wait here stepped out yelled to someone down the street and the time was brought to her so he could make sure she was safe and not taken advantage of. 100% recommend Edwin tours.

Puerto Plata
HOLLIS_M, Mar 2024
In The short amount of time we were in Port, we got to see everything we wanted to which includes the umbrella Street pinks, freed the fort, wrong tasting chocolate tasting, etc.
Really enjoyed it!

The cable car 🚡 excursion to the Natural Mountain was exceptional but there is an additional charge of $10 per person. I enjoyed the walk through the Puerto Plata town, in particular the street of umbrellas. However, I could have done without the shopping. I would have rather taken more time at the hystorical sites, in particular the fort. Our guide was very pleasant.
One of the best tour
Mark_W, Feb 2024
While Puerto Plata is a small city, there is indeed a lot to see and to experience. The visit to the Rum factory and Chocolate shop were excellent, the umbrela street and pink street are buetiful. Our guide and driver are very helpful and did a great job.
Puerto Plato City Tour with Edwin Tours
Kimberly_W, Feb 2024
We booked our Puerto Plato city tour through Edwin Tours. Edwin gave us a private tour which afforded us the opportunity to see the unique historical parts of Puerto Plato. He is very knowledgeable, polite and accommodating. The city is beautiful and the people are nice. I will recommend this tour company to anyone that is thinking about doing a city tour. You will be very pleased!
Amazing tour

Great service

Edwin and Luis provided our group of 10 with one of the most memorable experiences in puerto plata. Our group was able to enjoy multiple places without being rushed. The tour ended with the best local dinning experience we had during our stay. Great service!
Great excursion with Edwin
Sandy_H, Jan 2024
Had a great city tour with Edwin and Juan. We stopped at the chocolate shop, cigar factory, rum factory, city churches, umbrella street, a local market and walked around they city. Would highly recommend this excursion. It was my husband and I who are both in our mid 60s.
Fun Times!
RussellR_H, Jan 2024
The tour was so fun! An important detail, the pickup point is at the very end of the new Tiano Bay complex. It is a good walk. Rum factory was great. Cigars and "mama juana" (drink) were a great addition to the tour. We got to eat at a local restaurant-Restaurant Ponderosa Del. They will ask you for your DL if you use a credit card to write it down for tax exemption. My goat was really gooood. Your credit card will adjust the rate. The menu is in Dominican $. Thank you to our tour guides!
We had fun
