Experience the 'Real Caribbean Life' on our VIP Gastronomic Tour. Starting with a convenient port pickup, we head to the rural countryside to explore authentic villages. Visit a traditional mountain kitchen to witness 'Creole cuisine' and enjoy organic coffee, chocolate, and tea tastings. Explore lush plantations of bananas and seasonal fruits like mango and watermelon. Experience a unique tasting of fresh sugar cane juice (guarapo), coconut water, and the legendary Mamajuana.
In the city, stroll through the iconic Umbrella and Pink Streets to admire Victorian architecture. We include a special stop at 'Casa de la Empanada' for a local treat. Your guide then leads a curated food crawl through hand-picked restaurants to enjoy authentic Dominican dishes (at your own expense). This flexibility allows you to explore at your own pace and budget. We conclude the day relaxing at a stunning local beach. A perfect blend of nature, history, and flavors!
