Overview

Step outside the resorts and discover what locals actually eat in Puerto Plata.

This small-group food crawl takes you through the historic center, where you’ll visit carefully selected local spots all within walking distance. Along the way, you’ll taste a mix of Dominican street food, traditional dishes, and local drinks, while learning how these foods fit into everyday life in the Dominican Republic.

From classic staples like mangú and La Bandera Dominicana to street favorites like the Dominican-style burger, each stop reveals a different side of the culture.

The experience flows naturally, with short walks between stops, a relaxed pace, and plenty of time to eat, drink, and connect with your group. No rushing, no tourist traps, just real places locals love.

Led by a local host, this is not just about tasting food, but understanding the stories behind it and how Puerto Plata lives beyond the resort areas.

Spots are limited to keep the experience personal.
