A short guide about Adventure travel to Dominican Republic

The Dominican Republic shares two thirds of the beautiful Hispaniola Island with Haiti - "The most beautiful place that human eyes have ever seen" is what Columbus said - when he landed here in 1492. There was still quite a bit of truth in his observation despite the fact that he hadn't seen any land for some time.

Santo Domingo is the chief city of the Dominican Republic. The colonial zone is absolutely worth a visit - it features the Calle de las Damas, the oldest street in the new world. Many tourists stop at Puerto Plata City with its fabulous beaches, but the North Coast (Amber Coast) is an unspoilt paradise for a wonderful tropical holiday.

While you visit the Dominican Republic you must sample their restaurants. On the Old City at Santo Domingo, right across the historic "Alcazar de Colon", you will find the "Pate Palo" and it is world famous for their "churrasco" marinated in cumin and honey. Their food presentation is also first class and their desserts are to die for. There are numerous fine dining establishments in the old town of Santo Domingo; however, you will pay a hefty price to dine at these restaurants (American fine dining prices). For a cheaper alternative there are also fantastic hamburger carts along El Conde, which offer unique and tasty hamburgers and hot dogs.

Tourabout has a number of travel providers that will take you to Dominican Republic, however once your there, you’ll discover the large amount of informal transportation - This kind is either by motoconchos (motorcycle taxis), guaguas/voladoras (public buses that are known for their generally bad conditions and the driver's reckless driving), and carro publicos (shared taxis that stop at certain intervals or wherever there are passengers on a street).
