Our expert English speaking tour guide will lead you around the capital describing historical facts and helping you experience the geological splendor and natural beauty of this modern-day metropolis.

The discovery of Santo Domingo starts with a visit to the mysterious "Three Eyes”, a series of spectacular underground caves. Here you can go for a walk along three lagoons with crystal clear water surrounded by suspending columns of stalactites and mounds of stalagmites. The indigenous Taino Indians used these and other caves as sanctuaries for ritual purposes.

We will continue to travel through modern sections of the city that will allow you to appreciate the beauty of its famous oceanfront promenade in front of the Caribbean Sea and some modern buildings such as the Fine Arts Palace, National Theatre, Presidential Palace, and more.
