Ricardo was our driver and he was great, especially diverting the bumps and animals in the road! Mandy was our guide and we all loved him! Very professional and informative about the country and personable too! We had him for all 3 tours and would definitely recommend him to anyone! They made our vacation extra special! And cannot forget Francesco... More

My wife and I booked Marysol Tours (marysoltours.net) via the internet after reading positive reviews on Trip Advisor. We spoke to Francisco (he speaks both English and Spanish) and booked a half-day tour to Sosua and a second half-day tour to a small mountain village in order to see how coffee and cacao are grown and processed by the local...

During my daughter’s spring break my family and I booked a trip to the DR, staying at Lifestyle’s holiday resort for about a week. Before leaving, I did a bit of research into excursion agencies online and stumbled across Marysol Tours. I thought the tours that were offered inside the resort were going to be extremely overpriced, and I was... More

Francesco at Marysol Tours is a very professional tour provider. Great prices, great advice, and friendly. We booked Paradise Island tour. He suggested we took a private bus tour as there were 8 of us. We had a great day. Beer was not included on our tour, only rum and soft drinks but on the day of our tour, Francesco... More

We were told to talk to Francisco at Marysol to get the best tour possible. Well we were told right!!! Not only did we get a great price, we got a personal tour for just the four of us. Our guide, I believe his name was Pedro, took us to the places we picked out and were able to spend... More

At first I was hesitant about booking tours off-site from the hotel, but I am so glad that I took that leap of faith! Francisco from Marysol Tours helped us build a tour package that suited both me and my husband, which included horseback riding on the beach and in the mountains, city tour, dunebuggies, and a snorkeling trip via...

Found Marysol Tours via trip advisor and although at first hesitant to book my tours outside the resort, I was glad that I made this decision as the cost was significantly less. Francisco was very responsive to emails sent to him and was courteous both via email and in person when we met him at our resort. He transported us... More
