5.00Leonel is so sweet & kind. He works with what you want to do and see, and not just the tourist areas. He is so knowledgeable about his country and city. Extremely informative and educational. He makes sure that everyone gets their questions answered. He stays with you the entire time. I love that he took extra care with my brother who has some mobility issues. We were treated to an experience we never could have received via a standard ship excursion. I highly recommend you do a tour with Leonel he is one of a kind.
Wonderful experience all around

5.00My family and I spent the whole day with Leomar Tours, our driver was Marlenny. She took us to many historical sights, she was very friendly, informative and ensured our safety. I recommend going Leomar Tours if you're visiting Puerta Plata and asking for Marlenny. We even ate with her and had a blast. After this tour on Feb 18 2026 my family and I can genuinely call Marlenny family.
