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! 🇩🇴
