Great driver but tour short on history - The ride from Punta Cana to Santo Domingo is long, but Maximo was an outstanding driver and pointed out the sights of interest along the way. The “private” tour was in fact a group tour of around 10-12 (not great, particularly when also trying to socially distance). If you’re looking to know of important periods and figures in Santo Domingo’s history or the architecture of the Zona Colonial, you’d be better off reading a book; I’ve been on Viator trips in a few countries, and the tour guides are generally far more informative and more proficient in language than on this tour. That alone drops me to 4/5, and being routed to three different souvenir shops drops my rating down to 3/5.
