For example, if you’re spending time in Santo Domingo’s Colonial Zone, you might be pointed toward a lesser-known café tucked in a courtyard where locals hang out or be invited to explore a farmers market outside the city on a Saturday morning. These are moments and places that insiders swear by, the kind of stuff you won’t stumble on by accident. Our locals want you to get a true feel for the Dominican Republic,beyond the postcards, with stories and flavor that stick with you long after your trip.
