Viagem de um dia a Santo Domingo saindo de Punta Cana

It was a 2 hour and 45-minute drive from Punta Cana to Santo Domingo. You need to know Spanish as no one could speak English on the tour.

I loved the old city, a lot of history and people proud of their land. I think we should visit it for 2 days, we didn't have time to read what was exhibited in the museums.

If you would like to know part of the history of the Dominican Republic, this is the best tour. I recommend this company. They were punctual when picking up from the hotel and always paid attention to every detail. Lunch was very good Dominican food.

Although we were picked up on time, but had some problems at the collection point. The bus was already gone and we had to stay with the chauffeur. He'll sort it out. Then no more info, he picked up some other people and left for Saona... Great... In Bayahibe he organized some driver to cart us to Santo Domingo. This then dropped us off at some group and rushes us through this national park. We booked a German tour and ended up with a Spanish, we didn't get drinks either and we didn't understand a word from the tour. It was pure chaos - We were glad when we were at the hotel.

The tour guide was great very informative and attentive. He spoke English well so didn’t have any problems understanding. The places visited were interesting and we enjoyed the history of Santo Domingo.

Very good beautiful René and Darius Very good work they behaved very well And the best and I recommend it.......

This was the best part of are trip. After a little mix-up on the pick up location, we were on our way. We need to be at a business lunch in Santo Domingo. Got there with plenty of time to spare. After our meeting, Paulino took us to the historic district were we met up with our tour guide. We had a great walking tour of the city with great commentary. Saw amazing buildings and historic sites. Stopped by a chocolate shop that was amazing. They ended the tour at a shop that sold jewelry and other gifts. The prices were great after a little back and forth. Wife found some earrings and a ring. The best part happened on the way home. My wife had told Paulino that she wanted some limoncillo when we got picked up. He said that might be hard but he would try. As we were driving home he spotted a car with a passenger eating some limoncillo. He waved them down and they were nice enough to share with us (we did give them a little for their trouble, not that they asked). It was an amazing experience. Really enjoyed the trip. Great price and even better service.

Perfectly organized, on time, clean and excellent driver. I recommend. The driver picked us up in the lobby of our hotel in Punta Cana. The car was clean and looked well maitained. Perfect end to end service.

This tour was cheaper than what was offered through our resort, so we decided to take a chance and check out Dominican capital city after spending majority of our vacation just chilling on the beach. We were picked up at specified time in a little van by a man in sweatpants, taken to Punta Cana and left at a bus stop letting us know someone will be here for us shortly. In about 15 minutes, as more people gathered, we were stuffed into another slightly bigger van with hard tiny seats and after an uncomfortable 2+ hour ride, we finally arrived in Santo Domingo. We picked up our tour guide, who spoke enough broken English for us to get the gist of his “tour”, although being the only English speakers in our group, we got the “concentrated” version. We were driven around the city, which was very dirty and not cute by any standards, piles and piles of trash everywhere, old falling-apart buildings. We stopped at a church, which was nice, Columbus’s son’s house, old town, taken to a buffet-style lunch of typical Dominican food, then allowed shopping time at local souvenir shop boasting trinkets made in China. Our last stop was at the National Park with some cool water caverns, then another 2+ hrs uncomfortable ride back to Punta Cana. This time everyone was dropped off at their respective resorts, which took an additional hour. Final thought - should have spent our last day on the beach instead.
