Very interesting!! A fellow gave a demonstration of how cigars are made. Visitors were given the opportunity to smoke a cigar, but most of our group just watched the demonstration.Full review by CarolynjuneTravels

How do you do the tour? I will be in Santiago on December 1st.
A:
Hi, Drake! I called them on their office phone, one day prior to the tour and arranged it. Check the La Aurora Cigars website for more information. It's mostly all in there!
Hello! Is there a cost associated with taking a tour here? Do I need to make reservations ahead of time and if so, how? Thank you for the help!

I am traveling on a carnival cruise that stops at Amber Cove. How would I get from Amber Cove to do a tour of the cigar factory. We are there from 8:00am to 4:00 pm

You will be 2 hrs (each way) from La Aurora (which is located in Santiago Province----you will arrive at Puerto Plata). You have the time as long as you move fast....the only way i think is to pay a taxi. I we used Uber as a benchmark, it may cost you around US$ 75 each way...Use Uber. Maybe the want to stay with you and wait for you there....if not give you a decent price, Uber back. If you like cigars, La Aurora is a much better option than staying at Puerto Plata. I do not know Amber Cove, but Puerto Plata city (except a few cases around Luperon) beaches are not the best. While in Santiago, Google and get a sandwich at La Campagna. There is one closed (by car) to La Aurora at Juan Pablo Duarte street. Have fun.
