Creator's Key Takeaways

Once we got going, we headed out onto the main roads, which was uh a bit scary at first, but then the guides led us through this small village, and it got a little bumpy with um off-road trails and pothole roads, and the quad bikes were bouncing around a bit.

So, don't wear your best t-shirt. Bring a bandana and your sunglasses.

This is what we came for. That being said, it was time to take a break, rehydrate, and take a few pictures.

Now, that really was a great trip and it far exceeded our expectations.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring a bandana and sunglasses for the quad bike adventure.
Bring your own GoPro for better footage quality.
Visit Umbrella Street and Pink Street for photo opportunities.

YouTube Video Description

We visited Puerto Plata in the Dominican Republic on our Caribbean cruise and had one of the BEST port days yet! After arriving at Taino Bay, we set off on an unforgettable quad bike adventure, booked with Viator — riding along the beach with incredible ocean views and palm-lined scenery. This was easily the highlight of our Dominican Republic cruise stop! We also explored the colourful streets of Umbrella Street and the famous Pink Street, two of the most Instagrammable spots in Puerto Plata. From vibrant umbrellas overhead to stunning pink colonial architecture, this cruise port has so much more to offer than you might expect. If you’re cruising the Caribbean and Dominican Republic is on your cruise itinerary, this video will show you exactly what to expect, the best excursions to book, and whether quad biking in Puerto Plata is worth it!
