Amazing private tour experience! - We had an amazing tour in Puerto Plata! We were met by Barney just outside the cruise port and taken on a private tour. We explored the city and learned so much! Barney is very knowledgeable and friendly. We also spent time at a beautiful beach, where we relaxed, had lunch, and of course, I had to get a piña colada served in a pineapple ☺️ Don’t hesitate to book with Barney, they’re legit, safe, and budget-friendly. Highly recommended!

Highlight of our cruise - We had an absolutely fantastic experience on this private tour! From the very beginning, communication was excellent—Barney kept in touch before our trip and made everything feel smooth and well-organised. Our guide was incredibly friendly and made us feel completely safe and looked after throughout the day. You could really tell he cared about making sure we had the best experience possible. The highlight for us was definitely the squirrel monkeys—they were amazing! We had plenty of time with them, which made it feel relaxed and really special rather than rushed. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone considering it. When my youngest is a bit older, we’ll definitely be booking again to try the waterfalls and buggies!

Best tour experience ever! Private tour of DR! - This was the best tour! We were met just outside of the cruise port and taken on a private tour. We were able to do everything we wanted to do and then some. Downtown shopping, cigars, the beach, and We even made a pit stop at the grocery store to get the Baldom hot sauce that I love! Thank you so much for the awesome tour! Our driver Hershem (sp) was friendly and told us many things about the island!

Excellent and safe excursion! - We had an amazing experience with Barney and Dominican Atlantic Transfer Tours! Elias was our guide for the day. They picked us up right outside the port at Amber Cove, which made everything super easy and stress-free from the start. We got to visit the monkeys, which was such a fun and memorable part of the day, and then enjoyed a great city tour of Puerto Plata. Elias made sure we hit all the spots we wanted to see without ever feeling rushed. The whole excursion felt very safe, well-organized, and personalized to what we were looking for. If you’re visiting the area and want a reliable, enjoyable excursion, we would absolutely recommend booking with them!

Safe, Fun, and Unforgettable—Highly Recommend Barney - We had an outstanding experience with Barney in Puerto Plata—easily the best tour guide we’ve had anywhere in the Caribbean. From the moment we met him, he made our family feel comfortable, safe, and well taken care of. He has a great personality and a natural ability to connect, which made the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. What really stood out was how he went beyond the typical tourist stops. He showed us not only the popular photo locations, but also gave us a glimpse into everyday life in Puerto Plata, which made the tour much more meaningful. He’s also incredibly skilled with a camera—he knew exactly where to take us and how to position us, and we ended up with some fantastic photos that we’ll always appreciate. If you’re visiting Puerto Plata and considering a private tour, I highly recommend booking with Barney. He truly made our trip memorable.

Gersons was awesome. He... - Gersons was awesome. He was in touch with everyone around and made us feel party of the DR family. We were able to adjust to our wants versus sticking to a stick schedule. Extremely easy to book and find. The team sent a couple of WhatsApp messages once booked to welcome and give directions that were easy to follow. Loved the trip and would book again.
