Dominican Republic Mini Guide

The Dominican Republic is one of the world’s most idyllic countries and occupies two thirds of an island on which the country of Haiti is also located.
The Dominican Republic is a Spanish speaking country though some English may be spoken in the tourist resorts, and it is geographically diverse with mountains, forests and coral reefs all there to be explored.



This tropical Caribbean island is very popular with nature enthusiasts as it is full of nature parks and surrounded by beautiful seas. Some of those nature parks are the Armando Bermudez National Park, Jose Del Carmen Ramirez National Park, Sierra del Bahoruco National Park and Parque Nacional del Este. The country is doing all it can to promote ecotourism to its visitors. It is also marketing itself more and more as a world class golf destination and it has a number of courses which were designed by professionals.

The Dominican Republic has a number of airports but the main one is in the country’s capital of Santo Domingo. You can also rent Rhino cars from La Romana, Puerto Plata, Punta Cana International and Santiago airports. Madrid, Paris, New York and Miami are the main international airports which do flights to the Dominican Republic.



Factor into the cost of your rental the fact the petrol is quite expensive in the Dominican Republic however. That said as long as you keep an eye out for pedestrians and cyclists, especially at night time, you should not have any problems. There is also a possibility that you could run into wild dogs which roam the cities. The main road on the island is the Highway DR-1, which connects the cities of Santo Domingo and Santiago, and it is a modern and wide.

If you plan to venture into the Dominican Republic’s lush rainforests then make sure you apply mosquito repellent as there is a risk of getting dengue fever, for which there is no cure. Getting malaria is a possibility but there are tablets that you can take to prevent this.



Otherwise if you plan to stay on the Dominican Republic’s amazing beaches you are unlikely to encounter any troubles. If you really want to kick back, try one of the local cigars for which the country is famous and chat to the friendly locals. But one topic which it might be better to stay clear of is the neighbouring island of Haiti as this has been a source of conflict over the years.
