An essential city tour - Totally recommended excursion to see the colonial part of the first Spanish city, the first university and the first cathedral in Latin America. It is well organized and enjoyable.

Great day out - Guide was brilliant, lots information on the caves and Santa Domingo. Lovely lunch stop with lots of choice and facilities. Santa Domingo was lovely in the centre and our Guide provided information on the place and the outskirts of the centre which was interesting. It took 2 hours at start of day before we eventually set off with bus changes but once allocated the driver was the same from there on to end of day and he was lovely. Very long day though, 12 hour's

Hot Day, Cool People - Great day trip. Very nice drivers and Victor, the tour guide for the day, was excellent. He was so kind and took his time to explain everything in Spanish and English. Santo Domingo is a beautiful city with a rich history. Everyone we met was very nice and the lunch buffet was celebrated many of the culinary traditions of the country. I would definitely recommend this tour.

Great time - Had a lovely time. Got to see and got told a lot of information. Tour guide was fantastic. ( I think his name was Mike). Had a little wait after pick up (which was on time) to transfer into another bus. Which was done efficiently. Only down side which was not the fault of anyone was, our bus had taken a puncture, so this delayed us a little in getting back, but our Guide stayed with us till there was another vehicle to get us back.

Long but memorable day in Santo Domingo. - Memorable. But long day trip to Santo Domingo. From hotel to hotel it was about 12 hours. Took some time for the driver to get us and to pick one other up and drop one off along the way. Once we actually got into Santo Domingo, we met with the best guide ever Miguel. We started off at the national park where the caverns were absolutely spectacular. Miguel was sure to point out the history of that particular area. After that, we stopped off at a few historical areas like the Columbus mausoleum, the presidential Palace, all along the way, telling us the history of the areas and then stopped off at a quaint little place for lunch. Proceeded to the Santo Domingo sign, saw the church in the Godfather, the first City Hall, and then proceeded to one of the first cathedrals ever built. The cathedral was spectacular. Stopped for a beverage and souvenir shop. Only unfortunate part of the trip was one of our travel companions, put her card into an ATM and couldn’t get it back. Highly recommend you bring cash if needed and not use any ATM in the Dominican Republic. Was a long two hours back, but definitely worth the day. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring water. Definitely worth it if you’re wanting to learn the history of the Dominican.

Good to walk around the old city - Good tour around Christopher Columbus lighthouse and lovely place for lunch, but we were not told the night before that three eyes lake will be closed. On the day the national palace was also closed.
