This is one of the best tours for the price I have experienced in my entire life! We got to see 70% of the unesco world Heritage sites in the colonial zone with in-depth information on 3 of the museums. Our guild was Jose’. He was so knowledgeable and was able answer all of our group’s questions with so much detail. We got drinks on the tour and the only time we got rushed was when I was the only person in our group that was holding us back. Jose’ really stayed attuned to the group’s needs! I will do this tour again when I come back with my family.
What a great way to spend 1/2 day! Jose Gomez did a fantastic job explaining the history of the city and country and told us parts of the countries history that we never new before! We also met Edgar , a tour guide in the Museum of the Royal Houses. He was also great and informative in a very fun way!
It was okay to get into Santo Domingo. Guide was great. Cave national park was the highlight. The church visit was rushed as was the visit to the Pantheon.

Our tour guard was very knowledgeable, we enjoy every moment of our history session with visual aide.
We only had a half day to spend in Santo Domingo and wanted a quick overview of the attractions. Dom Rep Tours fulfilled and surpassed our expectations by far. Staff is extremely friendly, very informed and professional. It was very hot and the guide knew how to still make the tour as enjoyable and cool - in every sense - as possible. We'll definitely be back for more.
