Highlights

Upon arrival we start at Los Tres Ojos National Park. Beauty hidden inside a cavern that houses 4 lakes, which at first was only 1, today separated from each other possess very different characteristics. We continue to the Columbus Lighthouse, a museum mausoleum built in honor of the navigator. Continue the guided tour in the Colonial City of Santo Domingo, enter the Museum of the Royal Houses and National Pantheon, then Plaza de España, where the emblematic Alcázar de Colón is located. We continue to the Primate Cathedral of America, also known as the Basilica Minor de Santa Maria de la Encarnación. Did you know it was the first New World Cathedral? Unbelievable! After seeing this temple built by order of Charles V, we will go to the oldest fort built by the Europeans in America: the Ozama Fortress. Option to add lunch for an extra amount

About Santo Domingo

Santo Domingo, the Dominican capital, has a UNESCO-listed colonial quarter of stone churches, forts and cobbled streets beside the Ozama River.

The Zona Colonial of Santo Domingo is one of the oldest European towns in the Americas, a grid of stone streets laid out in the early sixteenth century. Calle Las Damas runs past the Fortaleza Ozama, a fortress above the river. The Catedral Primada de América, begun soon afterwards, is the oldest cathedral in the Americas, and the Alcázar de Colón, a palace built for Columbus's son Diego, overlooks Plaza de España.

Top-ranked sights in Santo Domingo: Columbus Lighthouse (Faro a Colón), Ciudad Colonial (Zona Colonial), Calle Las Damas.
