Self drive to Manatí Park Zoo, Eyes Ecological Natural Park, Marinarium, Mount Redonda, scenic Macau Beach and Mundo Autentico Chocolate Factory.
- Comfortable air-conditioned buses run from Punta Cana to Santo Domingo. Visit the capital of the country and walk the streets of the city. It is better to go with an excursion to remote places, like the Samana Peninsula.
- Prices for excursions that are offered in hotels are higher than in street agencies.
- The Dominican Republic has a hot tropical climate. Bring drinking water, sun hats, sunglasses and sunscreen. Do not snorkel for more than 20-30 minutes a day, otherwise you may get severely burned.
- The rains in the Dominican Republic are short-lived, but very heavy. A raincoat is useful for full day excursions.
- If you are planning a boat trip, check with the organizers for how long the boat trip takes. Young children, aged travelers and tourists with a weak vestibular apparatus do not tolerate rolling well. Use motion sickness pills!
