Explore the historic centre of the Dominican Republic's capital on our Santo Domingo Day Trip from Boca Chica. You'll visit the lighthouse, the Alcazar de Colón, the Cathedral of Santa María la Menor and the Three Eyes Cave.
At the indicated time, we'll pick you up from your hotel in Boca Chica and set off towards the historic capital of the Dominican Republic.
Our day trip to Santo Domingo will begin with a visit to the Three Eyes National Park, where we'll see its famous freshwater lake and cave. Then, we'll pass by the Columbus Lighthouse, where the remains of Christopher Columbus are said to lie.
After taking a short break in front of the National Palace to admire its neoclassical façade, we'll head to a local restaurant for a delicious buffet lunch of Dominican delicacies. Our lunch will include typical dishes such as rice, meat stews and beans.
After lunch, we’ll take a walking tour of the beautiful colonial district of Santo Domingo. There, we’ll visit the interior of the famous Alcázar de Colón and the Church of Santa María de la Encarnación, the first cathedral in the Americas. We’ll also head to Plaza de España to see its terraces, which offer a breathtaking view of the Ozama River.
The tour of the colonial area will continue towards the Via de Las Damas, which was the first street built in Santo Domingo. On this long avenue we'll find the National Pantheon, where some of the remains of the country's most illustrious figures lie. We'll also head inside this monument. Afterwards, we'll observe the façade of the Jesuit Church, which dates back to the early 18th century.
We'll then stroll through the lively streets of the colonial centre and see painting exhibitions, numerous cafes and craft stalls and the Larimar and Amber shop-workshop. When we get to this last spot, we'll learn all about the importance of these semi-precious stones in the Dominican Republic. Afterwards, we'll head towards the boardwalk to round off our day with a beautiful view of the Caribbean Sea from the capital.
Finally, we'll meet up again to begin our return trip to Boca Chica. We're scheduled to arrive at your hotel 10 hours after pickup.
