4.Historical Santo Domingo Day Trip from Punta Cana

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 176 reviews · from $95

Review of the Santo Domingo day trip from Punta Cana, with colonial sights, lunch, caves, transport details, costs, and practical tips.

“The tour guide and driver were both exceptional. The biggest issue I had with the tour was the early morning Pick-Up and excessive waiting. I was picked up at 7:15AM. We then proceeded to pick up several additional passengers. We then waited for more passengers at a gas station for 20-30 minutes. This gas stations was 15-20 minutes away from my hotel. If I had know this I would have just taken a taxi to the last pickup location to avoid the excessive wait time. We finally got on the road between close to 9AM and were returned back to the hotel at 8:30 PM. I would have preferred meeting…”

Review this 11-hour Santo Domingo day trip from Punta Cana, with colonial sights, Three Eyes caves, lunch, transport, and practical booking advice.

“Die schlechteste Tour, die ich je mitgemacht habe. Wenn man Minussterne vergeben könnte, würde ich dies tun. Man wird von Touriabzocke zu Touriazocke geführt. Sieht fast nichts von Santo Domingo, hauptsächlich die Abzock Läden. (ca 40% der Zeit). Dem Tourguide sollte man Trinkgeld in einer Seitenstraße geben, warum auch immer. Nicht empfehlenswert, würde ich nichtmal kostenlos mitmachen. Komplette Zeit- und Geldverschwendung. Man hat am ganzen Tag nur ein Glas zu trinken bekommen, was ich auch recht wenig finde.”

“Our cultural tour was a wonderful way to experience real Dominican life beyond the resorts and felt personal, thoughtful, and well paced. Authentic Dominican culture, genuine connection, and plenty of laughter delivered by our amazing tour guide Robinson and and peace loving driver and ad hoc photographer Sunny. Robinson is a knowledgeable, passionate and warm guide who shared Dominican history and traditions with care and authenticity. We visited an authentic Dominican home, saw traditional coffee and chocolate making, enjoyed a delicious Creole lunch, explored the public market, visited the Higüey Basilica, went horse riding and even visited Macao Beach. The safari truck that took us looke...”
