Hi! My name is Frank, and I’m a proud local from Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic. I’ve been a certified tour guide for several years, and I love sharing the beauty, culture, and excitement of my hometown with travellers from all over the world. Whether it’s meeting playful monkeys, riding buggies through the countryside, or simply discovering hidden gems around the city, I’m here to make your visit unforgettable. My tours are fun, safe and filled with local insights you won’t find in a brochure. I speak English and Spanish, and I specialize in creating experiences that combine adventure, nature, and authentic Dominican culture. Whether you're arriving by cruise ship or staying at a hotel, I’ll take care of every detail — all you have to do is enjoy! Let’s explore Puerto Plata together — like a local, with a local! 🇩🇴

Overview of your Puerto Plata tour
Escape the port for a few hours to visit a licensed wildlife sanctuary where capybaras and squirrel monkeys live in an environment designed to replicate their natural habitat. This is not a petting zoo or photo-prop experience — animals here choose when and how to interact with visitors, and can disengage at any time. Your guide will walk you through the sanctuary, explain the diet, enrichment, and veterinary care each species receives, and give you the chance to sit quietly nearby while capybaras and monkeys approach on their own terms. No animal is held, restrained, or costumed for photos. The facility operates under official authorization from the Dominican Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (VABP-12504).
