Puerto Plata City Explorer

Anyone done this tour (Royal Caribbean)?  We haven't been to Dominican Republic before so we wanted to do an excursion give by the ship.  This one seems ok but hoping for feedback.

We haven't, but it's on our short list of options.  We like to do ship excursions when it is our first time in a port.  We'll be there on a second cruise several months later and will likely be more adventurous.  What I like about this one is that it is just 3 hours and offers 2 departure times (8 AM and 9:30 on our sailing).  So if we do the early one, that gets us back with plenty of time to explore Taino Bay and the area outside the port gate.  And even if we do the later departure time (for those sleepy-heads in our group), we'd still have some time to walk about.

Thanks for the reply.  We ended up booking it.  Agree, also like the fact that it's just a few hours long and early starting time.  Our cruise is in Dec so I can report back and let you know if you haven't gone yet and still deciding.
