    Great Excursion!

    The transportation was safe and Luis was super respectful and answered all the questions we had about the trip and DR. The ATV was so much fun. The blue fall was beautiful and so refreshing. It was a little bit of hiking but it was super worth it. We had some delicious lunch as well when we got back where we got the ATV. Alex was a great guide on the excursion. They all were great I just can’t remember their names.

    Response from the operator: We deeply appreciate your comment! It’s always a pleasure to know our clients are happy with our services. We’re grateful for your trust and recommendations, and we can’t wait to host you again in the future.

    Best value and team!

    This was my first time booking an excursion through Viator, and we had such a great experience! We did an ATV excursion that included two waterfalls, lunch, and a few extra stops. The only confusing part was figuring out which company was actually picking us up since that wasn’t clearly listed in the Viator description. We had to call the number provided to find out, but after that everything went smoothly. Our driver arrived on time and was great. The ATVs were clean and lined up when we arrived, and thankfully it wasn’t crowded. The ride was so much fun, and we were able to make a couple of quick stops for drinks along the way. Bandanas are recommended for the ride and can either be brought from home or purchased for $5. The two waterfalls were absolutely beautiful, and there was even a photographer available if you wanted professional pictures. Lunch was simple—rice, beans, and grilled chicken wings. The chicken was good, although the rice and beans were a little bland. They also gave us shots of Mama Juana, which was a fun touch! Afterward, our driver stopped at the beach for pictures, and we even had time for a quick swim before heading back to the port. The excursion was advertised as three hours, but since our group was small, they actually extended our time. We still made it back to the port on time. One tip: definitely wear good shoes! I wore my Tevas, and they were perfect because there are some slippery areas around the water. Overall, we loved the experience and would definitely recommend it!

    The BEST time with the BEST guides

    From pickup to drop off Andy and his team really took care of us and made sure we had a great time. Though we got off to a late start, they should the upmost hospitality by giving us food and drinks while we waited. Alex, Alex, and Papo truly made the whole experience one of a kind. Those three guys were with us every step of the way ensuring our safety and keeping us entertained the whole tour. The locations we visited had zero wait time, as we were the only people there. If you are ready to laugh and have a perfect adventure, I would definitely recommend booking this experience!!

    Book it! - But read this first lol

    This was so much fun. Alex 1, Alex 2, Paco, Luis, everyone was friendly and funny and really made the experience what it was. The ATVs were fun, we picked mangoes and avocados right off the trees, and they made us lunch afterward. All the locals waved as we rode by, and there were cows, horses, chickens, and dogs everywhere, which honestly just made the whole experience better. The views along the way were beautiful. We didn’t stop to take pictures, but I’m sure they would have stopped if we had asked. Once we got to the point where we had to hike to the waterfall, I will say that part was a little bit of a challenge. If you’re someone who easily twists an ankle or has trouble walking on uneven terrain, I’d keep that in mind. But once you get to the waterfall, it is absolutely stunning. The water is so crystal blue, and the guides actually jumped in with our group and made it so freaking fun. There weren’t many pictures or reviews beforehand, but I think that’s probably because they’re fairly new. They took a lot of pictures of us, though, so hopefully if you’re reading this later, there will be more pictures posted. The photos were a little expensive, but we were a group of six, so splitting the cost wasn’t bad at all. Overall, I really can’t recommend them enough. We had such a good time and I’m really glad we did it.

    Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Puerto Plata.

    How much does Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines cost?

    +

    Prices start at $100 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Puerto Plata usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Puerto Plata is not rushed.

    Is Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 54 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Puerto Plata, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines?

    +

    Around 19 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Puerto Plata can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Puerto Plata and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Puerto Plata within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Puerto Plata?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Puerto Plata experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Puerto Plata Highlights City Tours from amber cove and Taino bay, Puerto Plata City Tour, Half Day City Tour in Puerto Plata. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Puerto Plata?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Puerto Plata?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines?

    +

    Included: Alcoholic beverages; Carbonated beverages; Professional guide; Lunch; and Private transportation. Not included: Water Shoes; and Face Mouth Bandana. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines include hotel pickup?

    +

    Is Shore Excursion: Combo Atv & militare waterfalls | No long lines wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
