Here is just one example of what our destination experts can create for you.

Relax poolside at a luxe hotel, stroll along a beach framed by coconut palm trees, take a horseback riding lesson and play a round at one of the country’s renowned golf courses.
Day 3-4
Tour the UNESCO World Heritage site in Santo Domingo’s cobblestoned historic district, featuring the oldest cathedral in the Americas, then travel to the north coast town of Cabarete, the best spot for watersports like kite-boarding and surfing.
Day 5
Spend a final day a leisure before returning home.
