Harry’s team at Offbeat works endlessly to ensure you have a good time! Offbeat has helped me with two of my trips to the Dominican Republic, and each experience was easy, stress-free, and fun. Whether you need help planning a full itinerary or just setting up a driver to pick you up and drop you off, Offbeat will be there to support you. Everyone on the team is friendly, professional, and wants to ensure you and your family or friends have a great trip. They also value the local businesses and people and highlight that in their trip itineraries. Rest assured you will not be disappointed when partnering with Harry and his team, in fact, you’ll probably be eager to plan your next trip with them as well!

Our experience working with Offbeat Travel in Costa Rica and The Dominican Republic has been exceptional. What stands out most is the professionalism and dedication of their staff, especially when working with multiple groups of students throughout the season. Their team consistently demonstrates a strong sense of responsibility, flexibility, and genuine care for the students’ experience. One of the greatest strengths of Offbeat is the cultural immersion they provide. They go beyond simply visiting a destination and create opportunities for students to connect with local communities, learn from different perspectives, and experience the country in a meaningful and authentic way.

Thank you so much for this thoughtful review! Working with student groups comes with a unique set of responsibilities, and it means a great deal that our team's flexibility and care came through so clearly across both Costa Rica and the Dominican Republic. Cultural immersion is at the heart of what we try to build into every itinerary, so it's especially rewarding to hear that it made a real impact on the students' experience. We look forward to continuing to work with you this season and beyond!

Recently I got to travel to Dominican Republic.! The experience was amazing.! Manuel was my guide for most of my trip, very educated and knowledgeable. Even on an off day they went out of the way to accommodate me. I’d most definitely travel with them again.!! Thanks guys.!!

Thank you for the kind words! We're so glad your trip to the Dominican Republic lived up to the adventure — Manuel takes a lot of pride in sharing his knowledge with travelers, and it's great to hear he went the extra mile to make your experience a great one, off day included. We'd love to have you travel with us again. Thanks for choosing Offbeat Travel!

We are grateful for this team of expert advisors who were so accommodating. We had to reschedule due to an injury and inability to travel during our planned dates and Dennis worked with us to keep our original adventure just pushed back a few months when we were recovered and ready. Amazing crew. Unforgettable experience. We felt challenged with great activities and supported all along the way. ¡Pura vida!

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're thrilled that Dennis and the team could work with you to reschedule and still deliver the adventure you'd originally planned — that flexibility is exactly what we aim for when life throws a curveball. It means a lot to hear the trip felt both challenging and supported every step of the way. We'll be sure to pass your kind words along to Dennis and the crew. ¡Pura vida, and we hope to see you again soon!

I have now traveled to the Dominican Republic with OffBeat 6 times and each one has truly been wonderful. Each one has been a life changing experience. All my tour guides have been wonderful. Halle has been the most consistent and truly engaged in the work. We have learned so much from him and miss him so much. Thank you Offbeat for all the memories! I cannot wait to go back next year.

Thanks Alyssa! Having the Titan Scholars come to the Dominican Republic for six years running is an amazing testament of the programming and your commitment to the community. Thanks for everything you do and for choosing to continue working with us.

Have been on 6 different projects with offbeat and the process has always been incredibly smooth and accessible with all forms of accommodations being wonderful. All guides have been incredibly kind and supportive of everything we have done and there is no other travel agency I would ever use.
