Very informative and good day trip - Really enjoyed the tour. Our driver and guide was Hector (the protector). He was very informative and friendly. Got to see a tobacco factory and my aunt was shown how to make a cigar. Went to a ranch and learned about the different plants and fruits and tasted the actual cacao chocolate in it's original form. Was able to purchase products directly from the owner. Also visited the Altagracia church in Higuey. Please be aware that the public bathroom near the church does not provide toilet paper or soap so bring your own. Highly recommend the tour to see how locals live and parts of the city and countryside.
