ATV and Horse Riding in Puerto Plata / Shore Excursion & Hotel

Great Value and Excellent Service

Before our trip, I compared many companies offering similar ATV and horseback riding excursions in Puerto Plata. After a lot of research, I chose Country World Adventure, and I’m very happy that I made the right decision. We were a family of five traveling from a cruise ship, and this excursion was one of the highlights of our trip. One of the things that stood out was that they provided complimentary lunch and bottled water. For larger families or groups, this is a great bonus and helps reduce overall travel expenses. Before booking, we planned to spend some time in Puerto Plata town after the excursion to take photos and explore the area. Because of this, we needed to return to the cruise port a little earlier than the standard schedule. I contacted Country World Adventure in advance, and they always responded promptly to my emails. They were very accommodating and arranged for us to return to the port earlier as requested. The entire excursion was well organized, and the ATV ride and horseback riding were both enjoyable and suitable for different experience levels. The staff was friendly, professional, and made us feel welcome throughout the day. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. Their excellent communication, flexibility, and attention to customer needs made a big difference and allowed us to make the most of our limited time in Puerto Plata. I highly recommend Country World Adventure to anyone looking for a reliable, well-organized, and enjoyable shore excursion experience. If we return to Puerto Plata in the future, we would not hesitate to book with them again.

full day of fun

this was super fun! pick up/drop off was easy and convenient. staff was kind and helpful. lunch was tasty and filling. after the excursions we had the option of walking around to see the animals or swim in the pool; it was nice that we weren't rushed off after everything was done. ATV tour was well worth the money; views were great and we went through all kinds of terrain. horses were a nice change of pace, slow and relaxing. the guides and photographers were great too. no complaints.

Response from the operator: We are happy to hear that you have enjoyed your day with us! Thanks for the great review! :)

A Memorable Outing

We drove ourselves (just a preference). They have secure parking on the premises. The ATV part of this tour stole the show! We are a family of five and got three ATVs. All worked pretty well, one stopped a couple of times when we went through deeper waters a little too fast- this wasn’t inconvenient and it didn’t take away from the tour, it was SO MUCH FUN! There were only ten of us on this tour, plus the two guides and a photographer- 8 ATVs total- You will go through parts of a stream, a trench, on the road through a small town, etc… so cool! You will stop at a souvenir shop so if you think you’ll buy something, maybe bring a small backpack to take it back. Make sure you wear things you don’t mind getting VERY muddy. I suggest pants (or knee-high socks) and crocks, for ease of washing afterwards. Sunglasses and a bandana could be helpful. Shoutout to the best guides Cuba & Lebron who made this tour an unforgettable adventure! For the horseback riding, we think we had subs for guides 😂 There were only six of us on this tour. Without even asking if any of us had ridden before, the guides said this would be a very laid back ride. Several saddles were loose to the point the rider felt and looked like they were falling off. Guides didn’t seem to know what they were doing…. One went to help my son tighten his saddle and his own horse trotted away! We had to say repeatedly that we wanted to gallop, one of them asked me if that meant fast or slow! Yes, I speak Spanish. Yes, it’s Dominican Spanish ☺️ We eventually galloped for a couple of minutes but the tour was mostly trotting, bunched up, horses were not in the mood- they wanted to walk on the edge of the trail, by trees and branches. Needless to say, we don’t remember those guides’ names. My recommendation is for you to ask for experienced guides for both tours ahead of time! They definitely have some! Our photo guy, Frandy, did his best. Digital photo-deal can get very expensive bc price is per person. But make sure you negotiate (haggle!) with the “photo company”. Also, ask if you can see the pictures first; we didn’t and wish we had bc maybe we would’ve tried to pay even less. The food at the end was delicious and plentiful. We also had access to the pool and grounds but left bc we wanted to go to the beach. Everybody was very friendly.
