I am returning to Sosua in a few months and am looking to book a tour to Santiago/Jarabacoa. Last time I was in Sosua I had a bad experience with a tour group, I don't remember the name but it was out of Puerto Plata. Essentially they took my money and kept telling me to meet a bus on different days, only to never show up. So needless to say I am somewhat skeptical to pay more money, but Mel Tours seems like a legitimate (or at the very least prominant) business. Please let me know if any of you have had experiences with the company.
