We visited a school where we dropped off school supplies we brought with us.... More

We booked the half day horseback riding tour with waterfall and it was truly an adventure! The tour guide, Simona, took us to a beautiful cabin to start, then we got on the horses and took off from there. It was a breathtakingly gorgeous ride through the countryside. Some of the hills were quite steep, but the horses are extremely... More

Fair pricing. This is a good tour operator with a history of good reviews. We were able to receive a refund, with no hassles, for a cancelled tour.

My second trip to Sosua in 4 months and both times I have used Mel Tours for 3 excursions: The Waterfalls, Catamaran Trip and the Puerto Plata city tour. All wonderful values and great tours. But the best part was meeting Elena. Not only do you get a knowledgeable and beautiful professional working at your behest. But, you will gain... More

We went on a Sunday morning. Had a great time. The guide was good and it moved along at a comfortable pace with plenty of time to stop and look at things of interest. The lunch was a great finish.
