Car Hire & Dominican Republic Mini Guide

Renting a car in the Dominican Republic is a cost effective and comfortable way to explore your surrounding and discover some of the more remote areas that are not so frequented by tourists. 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. Whether you are planning to soak up the sun on the beautiful beaches in Punta Cana or explore the capital city Santo Domingo and its numerous museums and historical sites, then booking a hire car in the Dominican Republic is the most convenient and comfortable way to get around.

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.
