Altos de Chavon fees

Altos the Chavon entrance is not free anymore, cedula-carriers pay 40 pesos per person and foreigners 3 US$ per person. They have also setup a paybooth at the top end of the stairs to the Chavon river as there were tourguides who tried to enter their customers for free by climbing up the 300+ steps, only to find that if they didn't pay they were send back the steps again.
Also the government as of last week has increased entrance fee to Parques Nacionales del Este ( .i.e. Saona, Pamilla, Piscina Natural ) to 100 pesos a person, locals, kids or foreigners alike.

CB.

No, Casa de Campo people don't pay. It's just that a lot of restaurants and shops are suffering now. Where before 100's of tourists would weekly stroll the streets, buy bits and pieces and come back for dinner, now they are not exposed to this lovely place here because tour companies are not willing to pay this fee for their clients.

As far as I understand, one can lease the spaces. Only a few of them are included in the all-inclusive plan of Casa de Campo. I have no idea whether the cruiseship people pay or not
