Santo Domingo Colonial City Tour

Santo Domingo, founded in 1496, is the oldest permanent European settlement in the Americas. Its Zona Colonial is a UNESCO World Heritage Site — a remarkable living city where cobblestone streets, colonial palaces, and centuries-old cathedrals stand shoulder to shoulder with vibrant cafés and bustling markets.

Your guided tour takes you through the most significant landmarks: the Alcázar de Colón (the palace built by Diego Columbus), the Catedral Primada de América (the first cathedral in the New World), the Fortaleza Ozama, and the iconic Calle las Damas. Your expert guide brings the history alive with vivid storytelling.

Beyond the monuments, you'll experience the real pulse of the capital — the sounds, the scents, the street food and the Dominican spirit that make this city unlike anywhere else. There is free time to explore, shop, and have a meal on your own.

A journey that enriches the whole holiday. Many guests say Santo Domingo gives them a completely different perspective on the Dominican Republic — and on history itself.
