Dominican Republic Planning & Tips

The Art of Smart Timing
Charter companies, which package air with all-inclusive hotels, have made the Dominican Republic one of the most affordable travel destinations in the Caribbean. Check with charter companies like Liberty Travel and TNT Vacations for the cheapest options. Head down there after April 15, and the price will drop significantly.

Off the Radar
While in Samana, inquire about boat trips across the bay to Los Haitises National Park. Large mangrove stands, a patch of rainforest and a network of caves await the lucky few who make their way to Los Haitises' shores. The sounds of pelicans, parakeets and herons echo across the dense forest. Or, venture inside one of the caves to find bats and ancient Taino petroglyphs.
