The Experience

What your day looks like

Santo Domingo We're giving YOU the opportunity to experience, firsthand, the birth of European civilization in the Americas. The first cathedral, paved road, university, hospital, stone home, tavern, etc are all located within a 16-block radius in Santo Domingo's Colonial Zone or "Old City". Oh and did we mention the Colonial Zone has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1992? How many World Heritage Sites have you been to? Discover the capital of the Dominican Republic in a super complete excursion, with a tour with a very special itinerary. We will also enter a workshop where they sculpt the native precious stone of the Dominican Republic, the Larimar. At lunchtime, we will taste a delicious buffet of typical Dominican gastronomy in the Colonia Zone itself. Our private guide will accompany us on the excursion, telling us the great history of the time of the settlers, the First Cathedral of America, Los Tres Ojos, El Faro a Colón, the streets of the old area and the Alcázar de Colón.

I met some nice people who made a rather miserable expierence pretty fun. Not the most ideal tour for non Spanish speakers or people who can't really problem solve and go with the flow
