For all the Locals! Need your Help!

hi there,
I am bringing a large group (500 l) to the country next January and would love it if anyone can help with anything amazing in the country to see or visit.
We need to plan activities at night and parties. They must be fun and over the top.......does anyone know of a company that specialized in this stuff? Does anyone know if air balloons trips can be done there? Where can we go to plan an event instead of staying at the host hotel? Please help!
thanks in advance!

Air balloons, never ever seen them here as a tourist attraction.

What part of the country are you visiting?
What age group?
What does the group like to do and why are you coming?

Give us some details and we will give you some suggestions.

As the song (Bing Crosby & Frank Sinatra - 'Well did you ever') goes ....... "You must be one of the newer fellas". There used to be a Hot Air balloon running tourist trips back in March/April 1994 with call sign echo charlie foxtrot bravo golf sponsored by Occidental Hotels.

If you check the Puerto Plata News April 15th - 21st 1994 Issue No 454, you will see a Front Page story (written by Ginnie Bedggood!!). Regrettably, the tour was brought to an untimely end due to some Coronel wanting too much of the profits & refusing to renew the licence when he was declined his "Slice".

Back to the original question - I am SURE "Swim with the Dolphins" would be pleased to offer a good discount for a VERY large group, the Jeep safaris would be happy to give some good deals, also the 'Monster Trucks'! If going to the North Coast, consider taking over the Cable Car for the day!! - Grahame.
