What are people saying about Santo Domingo

Private Transfer between Santo Domingo Airport and Punta Cana

Jasmin_L, Aug 2026

Superb!!

Excellent service and their price is very reasonable compared to others for the 2 hour private transportation from SDQ to the Punta Cana resort area. Great communication prior, during, and after the service date. The driver was at the waiting area at least 15 minutes prior to landing with the sign up. The whole drive was safe and comfortable. We highly recommend this service!

Natasha_Q, Aug 2026

Domingo el duro 💪

Domingo was amazing! He was very detailed and gave us all of the highlights while driving. He was so kind - helped us even exchange money, stopped to get drinks etc. highly recommend this excursion. Pro tip: take cash (pesos) and water as well as sneakers to go in the caves. You can then switch your shoes out to sandals at the beach. You don’t need water shoes… Boca chica beach is majestic and there aren’t any rocks that you’ll encounter.

I booked with Christian, and I would 100% book with him again. From start to finish, he and his team were absolutely amazing. Our flight was delayed twice, but Christian was incredibly understanding, patient, and kept in touch the entire time. Despite the delays, he was there waiting to pick us up without any issues. Throughout our trip, we felt safe, comfortable, and well taken care of. His team’s professionalism, reliability, and excellent customer service made the entire experience stress-free. I highly recommend Christian and his team to anyone looking for dependable transportation. Thank you again for making our trip so easy and enjoyable!

Hiking Tabernacle Thundering Waterfall in Dominican Republic

PRISSY_G, Jun 2026

Let me start by saying: WOW!

Let me start by saying: WOW! This tour was truly one of the most incredible experiences I've had. From the very beginning, everything was seamless. Pickup was right on time—in fact, Daniel arrived early, which I really appreciated since I was early too! The vehicle was clean, comfortable, and perfect for the day ahead. Daniel, our guide, was informative, attentive, friendly, and genuinely enjoyable to spend the day with. After picking up two other families, he gave us an honest overview of the day, offered helpful suggestions, and made sure everyone was comfortable before heading to the river. He even asked if anyone was craving anything and went out of his way to help people find what they wanted, whether it was cherry juice, ice cream, or a beer. Once we arrived, Daniel and Mistoline gave us a quick warm-up, and then the adventure began! We explored stunning caves with crystal-clear, refreshing water. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking. I brought a waterproof phone case, and Mistoline kindly took over as our photographer, which allowed everyone in the group to relax, interact, and enjoy the experience together. I was honestly terrified at times and slipped more than once, but both Daniel and Mistoline were incredibly supportive. They helped me and the other women navigate the more challenging areas safely, making sure everyone felt comfortable and secure. What I appreciated most was that we never felt rushed. After each beautiful cave, we had time to pause, take it all in, and truly appreciate our surroundings. After the tour, we stopped at a local restaurant where the owners treated us like family. We enjoyed a delicious family-style meal, played Dominican dominoes, and drank the coldest Presidente beers I had during my entire trip—especially the Vestida de Novia! On the way back, Daniel even stopped for ice cream before personally dropping each of us off at our destinations. I honestly can't stop recommending this experience. It showed me a completely different side of the Dominican Republic and created memories I'll never forget. Thank you, Daniel and Mistoline, for such an amazing day!

Romana: Cave of wonders and Chavón from Santo Domingo.

Hollie_F, Feb 2026

Beautiful sights

Great experience. My driver was exceptional and really informative. The cave of wonders was beautiful - so magical. Romona - only lunch but a nice setting over looking the river. Quite basic but did the trick. Chavon - a lovely setting up in the hills, the old stone buildings and amphitheatre were great to see. Marina - my driver did not know this was included so do not expect this on your trip as I did. However, he was super kind and took me anyway and we saw the lovely beach and the boats of the marina - and I treated him to some ice cream which we enjoyed whilst taking in the view.

Excursion to the Three Eyes Park and the Colón Lighthouse

Abraham_M, Feb 2026

Great tour.

This felt like a private tour as my party of four were the only participants. Leopoldo, our guide, was very knowledgeable of the history of both the cenotes (Los tres ojos) as well as the Columbus Lighthouse. He did all the explaining in English for the convenience of my son in law that speaks only English. The transportation was a little awkward, almost felt like they use Uber for transportation, but we really didn't mind and overall enjoyed the tour very much.

Transfer in Tesla from SDQ Airport to Santo Domingo

Mendes_M, Dec 2025

Excellent Service

Excellent service, when I arrived I was kind of nervous because I don’t speak Spanish, Mr Abreu texted me to let me know the driver was there waiting for me, when I got to the hotel, the driver went in there with me to help me which was beyond my expectation. The car was clean and nice and I had a positive experience. Highly Recommended!

Half Day Excursion Colonial Zone Lighthouse to Colón and Tres Ojos from Santo Domingo

Naya_R, Oct 2025

DR exploration

My friend and I enjoyed this experience. Our guide NELSON was accommodating, informative, helpful, caring, and a great person. I would say add an extra hour of wiggle room to your itinerary. We’re on island time and it’s important to not pack your day with other events because you don’t want to feel rushed on the tour. Take time to explore, shop and taste the local fresh coconuts and other fruits.
