🚢 NCL Joy – Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic 🇩🇴 Skip the crowded cruise excursions… this was hands down the BEST decision we made on our cruise! We booked a recommended private driver for the day in Puerto Plata and got to experience SO much more than any standard excursion. No big groups, no waiting around — just a fully customized day at our own pace. 🌴 What we did: 💦 Explored the famous downtown Puerto plata 🌄 Took in incredible mountain and city views 🏖️ Stop in a Cigar factory! Incredible 🍹 Tried authentic Dominican food, Drink Coconut water, rum, and chocolate Our driver Andres picked us up right at the port, built the itinerary with us, and made sure we were back to the ship with plenty of time — completely stress-free! 💡 Pro tip: Call Andres and mention Travel Solo Adventures to get 15% off your tour 👀 If you’re cruising on NCL Joy (or any ship stopping in Puerto Plata), book a private tour instead of a cruise excursion. You’ll see more, avoid the crowds, and actually experience the Dominican Republic. 👍 100% worth it — we would do this again in a heartbeat!
