PRICE: $2,000
per person

 

Begin your adventure in the remarkable Los Tres Ojos National Park. Wander into its network of limestone caves and crystalline cenotes. These natural sinkholes are rich in mineral‐laden waters and a striking visual contrast to the city’s hustle—feels almost otherworldly.

Next, travel to the iconic Faro a Colón (the Lighthouse of Columbus), a monument and museum constructed in honor of Christopher Columbus. Inside, discover a collection of international exhibits, and explore display rooms and halls dedicated to both art and history. The structure itself is imposing, designed to pay tribute to the legacy of ‘the discoverer of the New World’.

Following this, the tour leads into the Colonial Zone, Santo Domingo’s oldest quarter and the first permanent European settlement in the Americas (founded in 1496). Stroll through cobblestone streets, exploring landmarks such as the First Cathedral established in the New World, Alcázar de Diego Colón (the residence of Columbus’ son), iconic museums like Museo de las Casas Reales, the National Pantheon, Duarte Museum, and the Ozama Fortress.

Your guide will bring stories to life—talking about the Spanish colonial period, local customs, and how the architecture reflects different eras. Also, receive bottled water during the journey, and a tasting of Mamajuana—a traditional Dominican drink.
