Santo Domingo City & Culture Tour from Punta Cana – Colonial Zone
Overview
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.
