Horseback Riding and Waterfall Pool Adventure

Excellent small group tour with children: José, a fantastic guide! We took the small group tour with our 3 and 8-year-old children, and it was great. Special mention goes to our guide, José, who was very friendly and helpful throughout the tour. They even had a child seat in the vehicle for our 3-year-old. They first took us to Tres Ojos Park, where we saw the cenotes, and then to the Presidential Palace, although it's a shame that it can only be viewed from the outside through a fence. Afterward, we went down to George Washington Avenue, the so-called Malecón of Santo Domingo, where you can take a picture with the iconic blue heart with the letters SD. Meanwhile, the guide explained things about the city. Then we went to eat at a small but delicious place called Tornasol. The buffet had limited selection, but what they had was very good. Drinks included only water and juice, and for dessert, they served flan. Overall, very good. Afterward, we saw a 4D colonial-style cinema. It's not bad, although the best part is the story they tell, very interesting; the special effects are just okay. From there we went to the Cathedral of Santo Domingo, very beautiful, not the best I've seen, but the oldest in the Americas, and that shows in its charm. Then to the National Pantheon, which was also very good: we saw the wall from which they fired when Drake arrived and where Columbus's brother lived. Finally, we tried mamajuana in the typical shop, designed to make you end up buying something. Although there are souvenir shops in the area that accept cards, this one in particular didn't, which is a shame. They gave us 30 minutes to wander through the streets (all very beautiful, with the charm of Santo Domingo) and we ended up in a chocolate shop to try some chocolate and a chocolate tea that was very good. Luckily, they did accept cards there. Afterwards, back to the hotel. Being a small group in a van, everything went very smoothly. Both the guide and the driver were very friendly. With children, even though it's a long day, it's manageable. At least our group had a fantastic time, even at the cenotes, where you have to climb up and down a lot of stairs. Oh, and the pickup and drop-off service was great! They picked us up at the Barceló Palace Hotel in Bávaro and dropped us off there as well. Everything was very well organized and communicated via WhatsApp. Highly recommended. It exceeded our expectations.

An Unforgettable Santo Domingo Experience with Xcape Tours Our trip to Santo Domingo was an absolutely exhilarating experience! We booked a small-group tour with Xcape Tours, and from start to finish, everything was superb. Our driver, Miguel, was pleasant, patient, and accommodating to everyone in the group. Upon our arrival, we were warmly welcomed by José, whose knowledge, energy, and enthusiasm made the experience even more memorable. He is truly an excellent tour guide! We had the opportunity to visit some incredible places throughout Santo Domingo, and each stop gave us greater insight into the rich history, culture, and heritage of the Dominican Republic. José did an amazing job bringing the history to life with his knowledge and storytelling, making each location even more meaningful. And the food was absolutely delicious! We had the opportunity to enjoy true Dominican cuisine, and every dish was full of authentic flavors that gave us an even deeper appreciation for the Dominican culture. Our experience with Xcape Tours was exceptional, and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment—from the beautiful sights and fascinating history to the amazing food and wonderful hospitality. Miguel and José truly helped make our trip special. We highly recommend Xcape Tours to anyone looking for an authentic, informative, and unforgettable Dominican experience. We can’t wait to book another adventure with them!

Josiah was <strong>fabulous</strong> ! He was very patient and straightforward. He spoke both Spanish and English! I had a great time and learned so much about the Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 and the Colonial Zone.

Good experience Nice tour, the tour guide was nice and attentive. The group we had was nice. Your guide took time to answer questions and had a positive attitude.

It was great! There wasn't much explaining about the buggy at first. The time at the Cenote could of been a little longer, but it's beautiful! Overall staff was very friendly, and had a great time! The duration of the Buggy Adventure was great!

Lovely Day Out Had a really lovely trip, with José as my guide. He was really informative and made sure everyone was looked after. The highlight was definitely Parque Nacional Los Tres Ojos!
