PRICE: $1,200
per person

 

Begin at Zona Bici Bike Rental & Tours, where your friendly local guide and high-quality bike await. After a brief safety orientation and helmet fitting, pedal away to discover the charm of Ciudad Colonial — the oldest European settlement in the Americas.

Wind through narrow cobblestone streets, past centuries-old ruins, plazas lined with colonial architecture, churches, and fortresses. Along the way, experience sweeping views of the Caribbean Sea, sample local culture in shaded parks, and get a feel for both history and modern Dominican life: hidden cafés, small shops, and charming local businesses.

Listen as your guide shares stories about the city’s founding, colonial architecture, the mix of cultures, and more, giving you context to understand what you’re seeing beyond just beautiful facades. Get tips on the best spots for food, drinks, nightlife, and places off the beaten track — what locals love but tourists often miss.

The ride is moderate (~7 km), designed for most ages and fitness levels who can cycle for a couple of hours. Finish where you began, with a deeper appreciation of Santo Domingo and many photo moments to take home.
