The 15 City Tours in Punta Cana That Earn Their Price

Full-Day Santo Domingo City Tour from Punta Cana - The bus ride from Punta Cana to the capital

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 4,500 reviews · from $95Our pick

Travel from Punta Cana to Santo Domingo with a guide such as Nacho, Kevin, or Darius, then walk the Colonial Zone, visit the cathedral, Royal Houses Museum, and Fortaleza Ozama, enjoy Dominican lunch, and see the Columbus Lighthouse from the bus.

“It was a long drive to the city for those who don't like 3 1/2 to 4 hrs on a bus. Some of the buses have comfortable headrests and some don't. The museum was great. The lunch was delicious. The headsets as we walked around town were quite crackly, which could be very annoying to some. The guide knew all his facts very well, but was a touch impersonal with the group. I think he had been doing it a long time and I am not sure he enjoyed the work.”
