I was asked how Dominicans travel when they travel abroad, if they like roughing it, and I didn't know what to answer. Or rather, I wasn't too convinced of what I said: "with as much luxury as one can afford. Staying at good places (3 stars and up), taking taxis or renting cars (public transportation, no way!), eating good and if possible, arranging (excursions, for ex.) as much as possible beforehand". With that said, "roughing it" means different things for different people.
With the difficulty of getting visas aside, I'm looking for answers from people who live there, about how Dominicans travel. Are the young ones traveling like young Americans and Europeans: staying in hostels, booking accommodations on arrival, choosing a local tour, and so on or are they like "the older generation" that looks for an "all-inclusive"-like kind of vacation?
TIA
