If you don't mind being crammed into a van with up to 15 people and don't mind walking a lot, then take this tour. Also, we had no music as listed in the description and did not have a choice between a regular buffet and Dominican buffet for lunch either. Our guide, Sweet David, really was sweet -- he helped with my husband who did have some walking issues. I enjoyed hearing some of the history but can honestly say I do not think I would have done this tour and probably should have researched it a little more before booking it.
