Authentic Dominican Republic is a small-group round trip designed to showcase the country’s cultural roots, natural diversity, and authentic lifestyle—far beyond the classic beach experience.

The journey begins in Santo Domingo, the oldest city in the Americas, where colonial architecture and UNESCO-listed heritage reveal the origins of the New World. From there, the route leads into the cool mountain landscapes of Jarabacoa, a region of waterfalls, pine forests, and fertile valleys nestled in the Cordillera Central.

Continuing north, the tour combines local traditions and flavors with visits to a traditional coffee factory and the legendary La Aurora Cigar Factory in Tamboril, offering insight into two of the Dominican Republic’s most iconic products. The experience concludes on the North Coast, in the peaceful fishing village of Punta Rucia, where turquoise waters, mangrove ecosystems, and the stunning sandbank of Cayo Arena create a picture-perfect Caribbean finale.

Designed for travelers seeking authenticity, relaxed pacing, and meaningful local encounters, this journey offers a balanced mix of culture, nature, gastronomy, and coastal beauty—revealing the Dominican Republic at its most genuine and inspiring.
