Meeting and Pickup

Pickup point
Pickup details

Your double monkeys and city adventure awaits you! To ensure that your day is perfect from the first moment, please read these instructions for collection carefully and so that you come prepared to enjoy to the fullest. 1. How to come prepared for both activities: This tour combines nature and city, so we recommend you: Dress comfortable and light clothes. Wear very comfortable footwear to walk, such as sneakers or tennis, since we will explore the city on foot. Bring sunscreen, hat, sunglasses and, of course, your camera to capture the best moments! Council for monkeys: for the safety and well -being of animals, it is recommended not to use a lotion or repellent of insects in the hands just before the interaction. 2. How to identify our team: It will be very easy to meet at your meeting point. Vehicle: We will collect you in our modern and air conditioning minibus. Identification: Our guide will wear a uniform of Ja Transfers and Tours and will wear a sign with the name under which you made the reservation. 3. Specific instructions by collection point: Cruise passengers (Puerto Taino Bay): When landing, please walk through the port area of the port until you reach the main exit. Just outside, in the tourist operators, our guide will be waiting for you. Cruise passengers (Puerto Amber Cove): After landing, you must walk about 6-8 minutes outside the main area of the port (passing the stores and bars). When leaving the security door, you will find the meeting area for independent tourist operators. Find our representative there. Guests in hotels and resorts: the collection will be made in the main lobby or in the security/entry area of your hotel. Please be ready 5 minutes before the scheduled time. Communication: If for some reason you delay or cannot find your guide, please contact us immediately to the phone number or whatsapp found in your confirmation bonus. We are ready to show you the best of Puerto Plata!
