The Santo Domingo City Tour is the must do tour for history and culture buffs.
A complete tour that will take you on a journey back in time where you will learn about the fascinating history of the Dominican Republic and visit its most emblematic museums in its capital city of Santo Domingo.  Witness their impressive architectural design that date to the time of the discovery of America.

The city tour of Santo Domingo is a full-day activity, where you will first climb aboard comfortable, air-conditioned buses and be accompanied by professional tour guides who will usher you through the richness of the Dominican history, its most relevant and symbolic monuments and museums, its diverse traditional cultural expressions and the Dominican way of life.

Our adventure begins with a visit to the breathtaking  Parque Nacional Los Tres Ojos (Three Eyes National Park), consisting of three beautiful lakes bound by large rocks that once served as havens for for the indigenous people.
Later, you will enjoy a stroll across the the Colonial Zone, the area with the largest concentration of historic and cultural attractions found in the country. Visitors will discover myriad ancient buildings declared as Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.

You will be escorted to the first cathedral in America, one of the most visited museums in the Colonial Zone and a symbol of the country’s fervent Catholicism.  We will next visit the Alcazar de Colón (Columbus Alcazar) and Palacio Virreinal de Don Diego Colón (Viceroy Palace of Don Diego Columbus).
You will see Las Damas street, the first road built in the Colonial Zone and, by extension, the city of Santo Domingo. Guests will also be able to see panoramic views of the Presidential Palace and Columbus Lighthouse, a monument erected to preserve the memory of Christopher Columbus and in commemoration of the 500th anniversary of the Discovery of America.

Those who partake  in the Santo Domingo City Tour will also learn about Dominican gastronomy while we take a break for lunch in a typical Dominican restaurant located in the Colonial Zone; the meal is included in the price of this tour. Afterwards, we will have some free time to explore and shop in the Mercado Modelo.
