Red face Looking to join a group in samana Nov 30

We are a family of 5 (older kids) looking to join a tour group in Samana or looking for a recommendation. Terry was full and Casa Dorado had to have 10 people per group. Anyone want to buddy up on a tour. Or have suggestions. We are a fairly active family but would be happy to take in a bit of culture and or hike falls, beach. It is getting down to the wire as we will be there Novemer 30.

Actually, Casa Dorado will take a Max of 10 people. They will take fewer, but your cost is affected. Fewer than 8 people it costs $260 ($100 for the taxi and $160 for the boat) 8 to 10 people it goes up to $300.

I had originally booked for just my family of 5 since I still felt it was a good deal. Then we got lucky and another family of 4 is joining us. Same trip, just a bit cheaper per person now!

well I was looking for that company and the link I found on here for Casa Dorado didn't get me where I thought it looked right. Is there another link or an e-mail address? If they still have guides available is anyone else interested in joining our group of 5 to make it more reasonable! Thanks for your help.

Got an e-mail back from Terry and one of his assoicates can take us on a full day tour and waterfalls. I'm excited. A few more could possibly go in our group. We are going to book this though. Getting nervous and down to the last minute for an organized tour.

Just got back from our cruise on the Norwegian Pearl. Terry was great--we had an excellent time and everyone in our group was so thrilled we booked with him. We did the horseback ride to El Limon!!

Hey I just sent you an e-mail with the information I got from Terry. Nothing is concrete yet. Bottom to top is oldest to newest e-mail correspondance. We hadn't heard back from him for a while and were getting nervous.......

I just read your post and we could very well all join the same group. There are 5 of us. 3 from another group on this board that we've already somewhat grouped with. So that would be 10 in all. If you correspond with Terry let him know that Chris and Becky and Sandy's group would be willing to merge as one group. Let me know. Here is my e-mail too if you want to correspond. beckyandchris@centurytel.net
