A cultural day out, exploring the capital city, the oldest city in the Americas and whose colonial zone has been designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Visit the house built by Columbus, the Cathedral and see the Christopher Columbus lighthouse, the explorer’s final resting place. Soak up the atmosphere of the oldest street of the new world “Calle las Damas” and experience a Dominican market where the bargains are endless & bartering is fun.

The trip is just too long. We understood this and thought it would be ok but for what you get skip it! The first stop at 3 eyes needs more time. Beautiful-best part of trip. The stops for bathrooms were at low quality souvenir shops. Passed right by nice decent places to shop and use bathrooms. Food was HORRIBLE. The place was just too small for the size of our group. I ate the lettuce, cucumbers and not ripe tomatoes for lunch. When stopped at other places the guide did not tell us how long we had. People just sat in the shade instead of exploring since it was another cheesy shop but it was part of time to explore on your own. They should provide a cooler or water at the minimum. They should also divide this trip by language. The time spent listening to it being translated 4 times was just too much.

My favorite part was Tres Otis. I loved all the old buildings. I wish they took us to artisan crafters instead of cheap tourist stores. Our guide was very nice but spent more time explaining everything in Spanish than English so I felt I was not getting the same amount of information. I loved th church also.
