Santo Domingo: The Authentic Dominican Neighbourhood Tour

This is an authentic tour and connection with the reality of the streets of Santo Domingo in a very special place that is characterized by being the starting point of the Santo Domingo cable car, it also has some springs where local people bathe, and Finally, it is on the banks of the Ozama river. It will be a local immersion where the interaction of the Dominican neighborhood with all travelers willing to experience something different is facilitated.

This tour is possible and totally safe thanks to the relationship with community leaders, it is not recommended to go to the neighborhood on your own. We have experience with the area due to social work that has been done previously and we are welcomed by the locals, but as in all places, it is recommended not to bring luxury or flashy items in sight. No problem with cameras and mobiles.
