  • Los Tres Ojos is worth visiting but can still be done in a more relaxed way

    We visited Santo Domingo a few days before Christmas and we were accompanied by our guide Leo. He was a casual and friendly guide with quite a deep knowledge of the history of his country, the Tres Ojos, and the Faro del Colón. We visited the Tres Ojos which was a pretty interesting and venue and great to add to your natural experience aside from the cultural and historical experience in Santo Domingo. However, there are a couple of points that I observed that if improved, it would even give a better experience for people taking this excursion: 1. it may not be peak season so it was only me and my friend who were in the tour. This would have been a much more personal experience if the tour was done slower. While we still enjoyed our trip, going from 1 cave to another felt too quick (almost only 2 minutes to visit 1 cave but we were hurried to walk and climb the stairs between caves, which were also much more humid than the rest of the city). If it was a slower-paced tour, we could have taken better photos of the place and would have absorbed the whole experience more thoroughly. 2. The Faro was quite massive and impressive but there was an event during our visit which hindered us from entering or taking a more immersive look of the monument. We also stayed quite a while with our guide in the open field which could have been better if we stayed under the shade. Our guide was in some instances a bit easily distracted with acquaintances or crowds passing by that when he shared some historical information, he suddenly lost his thoughts or start anew.

  • Great.

    Our guide, Leopoldo, was excellent. As our tour was on a Monday when most museums and the lighthouse are shut, he adapted our programme to show us more of the local area close to our hotel. We visited the outside of the lighthouse and then headed to the tres ojos park which is well worth a visit. Highly recommend.

  • Wonderful!

    This tour was a total disaster. Leonardo the tour guy was very nice guy but he was not knowledgeable and was rushing through the tour. The tour was poorly organized. I choose to be picked up at Billini hotel. When a tour offer transportation I assume they will pick you up. Our transportation was uber. Our tour guy asked me to get the uber which i found it weird. He did said he would give me the money for it. But all the uber where order by me. When we got to the locations, i had to pay for the entrance. I explained to him, that my credit card was international and i was going to get a fee from my bank. His answer word by word was “eso es solo como 4 dollares”. The point of a tour is not have to worry about things and have enjoyable time. Please do not waste your time with this tour. Just take a taxi and do it yourself. You will be saving money as well.

  • Lovely place in Zona Colonial.

    The three, actually 4, 'eyes' were beautiful to see and well worth a visit. The actual entrance to the place is quite inexpensive- the cost increases sharply when you hire a guide. We did- his name was Juan Carlos and he was lovely. Good fun and very informative. I'd have given 5 stars if it weren't for the pushiness of the person trying to sell souvenirs at the end of the tour. I know they're trying to make a living and I sympathise but it marred the experience a little. I must say also though that our guide acted with great honesty when I accidentally massively over-tipped him when he returned the excess to me. Thanks, Juan Carlos.

    Amazing caves. Beautiful water in them. Worth taking the little boat that crosses you from one area to another. Very humid but beatiful
