Hi! I found this forum through a tripadvisor link, and I've already found some great info here. We just decided to visit the DR, and we leave in about 3 weeks. So, any helpful info is very much appreciated!! I only know what i've read in the last couple of days.
We fly into SDQ, and we're staying at the Holiday Inn Santo Domingo for five nights. The room is free with my points, and it looks nice. Any pointers on interesting things to do within walking distance or nice little restaurants. We enjoy exploring, but I don't want to end up anywhere that we may not be... welcome, shall we say.
We are a family of four with two teen boys. We aren't interested in the beaches very much, because we live at the beach. We'd love to see them, but that's about it. We are very interested in a tour from Santa Domingo into the countryside, however. Any suggestions?
I read some pretty intimidating airport stories on a thread here. I've had one less than pleasant experience entering England, but that's it. Do we pay some sort of entry visa fee and an exit fee in the DR? I'm really unclear on that, and I don't want to be uninformed.
I'll have plenty more questions later, but these should get me started. Thanks in advance for any help!
