- ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reliable and Friendly Taxi Service – A Must in Puerto Plata! I used Taxis Francisco several times during my stay in Puerto Plata, and I couldn’t be more satisfied. Francisco is incredibly professional, always on time, and very friendly. His car is clean, air-conditioned, and well-kept — which made every ride smooth and comfortable. He speaks excellent English, knows the city inside out, and gave me some great tips on local spots, restaurants, and attractions. I always felt safe, and he never tried to overcharge — very fair pricing. If you’re visiting Puerto Plata and need a trustworthy driver who will make your trip easier and more enjoyable, call Francisco. Highly recommended!

ATV's and Tours - Francisco knows the city! He knows how to move where to go for different activities. He filled our day with ATV's, beach visits, city tours, and a wonderful local spot for lunch! I would highly recommend you use his knowledge to save money and have a better experience than offered by the cruise line!!!

Great tour guide and photographer - Francisco took us on a great tour of the city. I wanted to go to Umbrella Street and we did just that! He even offered to take pictures for us - and they were good! He's kind, articulate and we'll book with him next time we're in port to see the Jesus statue.

Francisco is an awesome tour guide - Francisco made this trip worth while. Very knowledgeable and caring. Gives you all you ask for. Tells you the history of the area and ensures you are back on time for your ship. Very friendly and a pure pleasure to spend the day with. Tried to leave a review earlier and lost our pics together. Hate that but he was so awesome and so was our experience. Air conditioned truck and he opened the doors and moves the seats down you.

Very happy with this tour with Francisco - I booked this tour with Francisco and very happy we did. Francisco is a wonderful tour guide, staying with us at every stop and is very enthusiastic about his job! Highly recommend booking with him! Note: However, we thought the tour included admission to the rum factory because it was plainly noted in the itinerary when we booked the tour. Instead, Francisco told us it was an additional fee so we skipped it (since we had previously visited a rum factory on another island.)

Great Day! - Francisco was waiting for our group of 8 and greeted us with hugs! He took us to all the places we wanted to see. If we wanted to skip a place it was no problem. If we wanted to add a place, we could. He had a cooler of drinks and snacks for us as well. He is such a friendly and lovely human being. I highly recommend him as your tour guide!
