Default Excursions from Puerto Plata

We're a group of 9, we would like to do some excursions from our hotel Oasis Marien. We're interested in going to Santiago, seeing cigar factories, seeing the countryside, various things, we aren't really interested in doing tourist trap kind of excursions. We'll be in DR from January 24th to February 7th.

I would recommend the catamaran trip from POP to LUperon. I believe the cat leaves Playa Dorada beach around 9 and arrives in Luperon around 3, then they bus you back to POP. A nice day on the water and a great view of the beautiful coast. Also, you have to take a trip in the Teleferico cable car to the top of the mountain. Great views of the area.
