The Ministry explains that &#8220;The Real DR&#8221; is part of a multi-pronged marketing campaign that invites travelers to experience the Dominican Republic&#8217;s brand through the unscripted statements, stories and testimonials of actual tourists. The campaign seeks to regain consumers&#8217; trust and reinforce the Dominican Republic&#8217;s reputation as a safe Caribbean destination, says the Ministry. The campaign includes advertising, public relations, social media, celebrity marketing, trade marketing, paid search and search engine marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;As a destination, we have always focused on providing visitors with a world-class experience that makes them want to return,&#8221; said Magaly Toribio, marketing advisor for the Dominican Republic Ministry of Tourism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Dominican Republic received more than 6.5 million tourist arrivals in 2018. The campaign seeks to show why visitors continue to select the Dominican Republic as their go-to destination for more than just the beaches, but a mixture of the divine culture, astounding nature, intriguing history and hospitable people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;This campaign offers a level of transparency and authenticity like nothing we have ever done before,&#8221; said Toribio. &#8220;We are looking forward to sharing the beauty and culture of our country through the words and first-person experiences of our tourists.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a look at the campaign check out: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.godominicanrepublic.com\/therealdr\/\">Go Dominican Republic<\/a>.
