Island Rum Tasting Tour

  • brugal rum factory tour puerto plata
From 50
Calling all rum lovers! Spicy, sweet, and toasted — it’s the famous rum tour of your dreams, with one stop featuring famous DR cigars.
On a rousing day of flavor and history, see how the most famous rums in the Caribbean are made by visiting the Macorix Rum Museum (the oldest on the island). Witness the process from impregnating the barrels with the liquor to the moment it’s ready to be bottled. While there, you’ll have an opportunity to taste the different brands to really get a taste of this fascinating spirit. One stop that offers rum also features a collection of cigars for you to browse (or grab a few to take home).

Shore Things are fully refundable to the original form of payment. However, please note that Shore Things are only fully refundable if they are canceled within 48 hours prior to the booked Shore Thing taking place, unless stated otherwise in a specific Shore Thing 'Need to Know' section. If you fail to either (a) cancel within 48 hours of the booked Shore Thing (or alternative time period as may be stated in a specific Shore Thing 'Need to Know' section), or (b) show up for a booked Shore Thing, you will be charged for 100% of the Shore Thing price. 

If you make a cancellation prior to the first day of your voyage and within 48 hours (unless otherwise stated in the tour details) of your Shore Thing, you will be refunded to the original form of payment after midnight Eastern Standard Time (EST) on the day of cancellation.

If you make another purchase prior to midnight EST, after canceling a booking eligible for a refund, the credit from the canceled booking will be applied to your new booking. Therefore, you’ll only be charged for the price difference between the canceled and new experience. If you have remaining temporary credit left on your account after you’ve made another experience purchase, the remaining credit will be refunded to your original form of payment after midnight EST.

If you cancel a Shore Thing during your voyage and are eligible for a refund, a credit will be applied to your folio and not to your original form of payment.


Shore Things departure times and/or meeting locations are subject to change. We will make every effort to notify Sailors in advance via the Sailor App of any tour departure and/or meeting changes.
