Hi
We are going to the DR for the first time in September staying at the Iberostar Costa Dorada.
We really don't want to be confined to the complex and want to see as much of DR as we can.
However, we are being put off by the mentions on this forum - and other websites - of being constantly hassled in the streets by people selling goods, offering to act as guides etc.
This really intimidates and frightens my wife and she is likely to stay in the hotel if this is the case.
Can anyone tell me how bad it is? or offer advice?
I really dont want to be a prisoner for two weeks but if the hassle is intolerable i fear I may be.
Help and advice please.
