Hello Everyone,
First, I would like to say "Thanks". This forum is a great resource. So many people have already asked about things I want to know about.
Myself, my husband and our teenage daughters will be arriving in Puerto Plata on Feb. 20th, staying at the Coral Marien Bay by Hilton in Playa Dorado for one week (any feedback on this resort would be appreciated).
Overall, we are a family of see'ers and do'ers. We do not want to sit around the resort for a week. Part of the time - yes (especially since we are paying the AI rate), but not all week. I have researched a number of excursions in the area, but would like to know which ones are the most reputable and the best value. We are definitely planning the whale watching excursion with Kim Beddall. Others of interest include waterfall jumping (cascading) and snorkeling. The horseback riding, outback safari, and others sound great as well, that's why we're having a hard time choosing. I'd be interested to know which ones are good half day trips vs. full days.
Thank you for your insight.
