Consider using local transport like guaguas (buses) for longer journeys, especially if you aren't comfortable driving in unfamiliar conditions.

    Respectful behaviour includes dressing modestly when visiting churches or other religious sites. Learning a few basic Spanish phrases is always appreciated. Being mindful of noise levels, especially in residential areas, is courteous. It's also important to be aware of personal space and avoid overly familiar behaviour with locals you don't know well. Bargaining is common in markets, but always do so politely and respectfully.

  • What are the key emergency contacts for medical or safety concerns?

  • What are the best areas to spend a week?

    A week allows for exploring different regions. Consider combining Santo Domingo, rich in history and culture, with a beach stay in Punta Cana or La Romana for relaxation. Alternatively, explore the north coast, visiting Puerto Plata and Cabarete for watersports and beaches. Samana Peninsula offers stunning natural beauty and opportunities for whale watching (seasonal).
  • What are the best areas to spend a weekend?

    For a weekend getaway, Santo Domingo offers a concentrated dose of history and culture, easily explored in a couple of days. Alternatively, a beach escape to Punta Cana or a more laid-back experience in Las Terrenas would be perfect for relaxation and enjoying the Caribbean sun.
