Program details

Join us for this full-day guided tour of Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic’s bustling capital, which is the largest and oldest city city in the Caribbean. ‹br›‹br› Santo Domingo is choc-a-block with commerce, culture, entertainment and fun. We are sure that the warm welcome of this city and the hospitality and the contagious and magical smiles of the Dominican people will make for an unforgettable experience. ‹br›‹br› After being picked up from your hotel and travelling to the city in a luxury coach, your first stop will be the Colonial Zone, a Unesco World Heritage site. Travel back in time to an area packed with more than 500 years of history. Follow in the footsteps of Columbus along the cobbled streets, passing palaces converted into museums, hotels and restaurants. You’ll also visit the Cathedral of Santa Maria la Menor, which dates from the early 16th century and is the oldest church in the West Indies, the House of Diego Columbus and the National Pantheon, Las Casas Reales Museum, the Torre del Homenaje, and the Ozama Fortress. ‹br›‹br› There will be plenty of time to explore this historical site at your leisure or snap up a bargain at one of the many crafts markets. ‹br›‹br› This guided tour includes hotel pick up and drop off (excursions are available in the morning and afternoon), coach transfer, lunch in a local restaurant and the services of an English-speaking guide throughout. Respectful attire is required to enter churches.
