Have you been to the domincan republic?


Travel Info
Any body been to soussa in the dominican republic were off at christmas and want any ideas people have on what to do other than swim with the dolphins.???

Travel Tips
there's absolutely loads to do! i would recommend doing the monster trucks.
there's also trips to santiago, dominican safari trips, trips to the small island off the DR, water rafting.
your hotel and local companies organise all sorts of trips, but be warned, the local prices can be expensive, and also there are some dodgy people selling trips, especially the beach sellers. you are best going through your hotel/accomodation.

i went to the dominician republic last year all i would say is that everything shuts about 11pm
Nope... I'm going next spring though... one of the stops on our cruise, can't wait.
no but i wont to.
wot a wierd coincidence thats where me and my fella are going next year! you can go on the internet and see wot else you can do we are going to soussa as well you can also do scuba diving lessons in the pool
Sosua
Should be spelt So Sewer.
If you swim in the sea, don't swallow...in fact don't get your face wet. Not only does the sewer from the shanty town go into the bay (Direct) but the centre of the Island is a Volcano...which they used as a rubbish tip until the late 90's. The rain washes all those germs down, most nights.
If you are in an all inclusive place, you will be OK as the standards will be western. If you use eateries in the towns, you will get ill.
From 150 countries visited, I've been ill twice (Properly ill, not the loose poo syndrome which can be cleared in a day). Those two places were India and Dom Republic.
yes its nice but would neve go again. there are nicer islands in the caribbean the dominican is very build up now nearly every part of the island has been build on it has been spoilt. And compared to other holidays we have been on you really do not get anything unless you tip all the time!!! Would recommend Cuba so far is my favourite place it was amazing we have just come back from the Maldives and we were so spoilt there.
One tip take plenty of immodium with you, you will need it
