Hey everyone,
I am traveling to D.R. for two weeks in early July and I am flying into Santo Domingo and plan on staying there for about a week. After that I am possibly headed to the north coast for a few days bouncing around up there and then possibly a few more days moving inland towards Dajab?n and south from there back to Santo Domingo. I am looking to travel "backpacker style" and looking for a more cultural experience on a budget rather than all-inclusive resorts. I am taking 1,000.00 USD for my expenses and I am curious if that would be enough for me for budget hotel/hostel/whatever type accommodation and food/presidente while I am there. I will be taking Caribe Tours to get me around and taxi to and from the airport. Other than that I am using gua-guas to get me around. Is that amount going to be sufficient for what I am aiming for? Any advise and expertise is greatly appreciated. I know there are some experts here so any help and opinions would be great!
Thanks again!
