George and King was great for our Monkeyland safari. George made us very knowledgeable about the country and the monkeys were the best part. Great value for the money that includes transportation from hotel, coffee, drinks, and the safari 👏👏👏
Very comprehensive, as you can see things you would never see if you stay at the hotel: cocoa, coffee, sugar, cinnamon, ..., life in the countryside and also in Higüei and at Macao beach. As a bonus, he included a horseback riding activity. The guide Amado and the driver Isaac made the day great. To mention a drawback, the activity was in Spanish and ultimately it was in both English and Spanish.
Full day of adventure and it was well worth it. The tour does include a buffet and it is delicious. Unfortunately, I do not remember our tour guides name but I did attach his picture and was great. Our driver, Felix, was awesome as well! I would definitely book this tour again!
This was a wonderful experience! Angel was the perfect tour guide - engaging, funny, knowledgeable, and compassionate! One of the members of our group passed out from the heat and Angel jumped into action and continued to check in with him. I wouldn’t have wanted anyone else. Luciano, our driver, was kind and drove safely. They were an amazing duo and if they can get any kind of recognition or bonus, please give it to them. They deserve it all!
