Additional Information

Would you like to walk in the footsteps of Christopher Columbus? Of course you would!

That’s why we’re inviting you to our exclusive excursion from Punta Cana to Santo Domingo.

We’re giving YOU the opportunity to experience, first hand, the birth of European civilization in the Americas. The first cathedral, paved road, university, hospital, stone home, tavern, etc are all located within a 16 block radius in Santo Domingo’s Colonial Zone or ‘Old City’.

Oh and did we mention the Colonial Zone is a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1992? How many World Heritage Sites have you been to?

This is how your day shakes down…

From Punta Cana you head west through rolling sugar cane fields until we reach the Dominican Republic’s capital city. Now, you’re in the thick of it, witnessing everyday life for millions of Dominicans; your walled off resort is far from this reality.

Location
The 3 Eyes National Park

Everything was wonderful. Just make sure you wear workout clothes for all the walking but the staffs were wonderful. - Took my wife on this tour as a part of her Birthday celebration. The ride from Punta Cana was a bit lengthy but definitely worth it. We enjoyed every bit of the tour.
