Hi,
I'm planning a trip to the Dominican Republic in early December for 12 days.
Flying into Santo Domingo renting a car and driving to Barahona for 2 nights.
I also have plans to visits the Samana area for a couple of nights.
I've been to the Dominican a couple of times but more of the resort vacation. This time I'd like to see more of the real DR.
From Barahona I was thinking of heading north to Cabarete.
What I'm wondering is whether I would be better off driving back to Santo Domingo and then up to Cabarete or if I could head north from Barahona with perhaps a stop in Jarabacoa or Constanza and then on to Cabarete.
From Cabarete I thought I'd drive down the coast perhaps stopping for a night as I head towards Samana.
Any suggestions on areas to visit are certainly welcome.
This goal on this trip is to see a good amount of the country with the idea that I'd come back next time and spend more time in those areas I liked best.
Thanks!
