5.00Best authentic & the only barrio tour in Sabyo Domingo! Mike was our guides and gave us an incredible experience. They spoke English and provided extra care and attention to any questions we had. Best believe you will be safe and well fed. Theres lots of treats throughout the tour. It was enlightening to see the incredible work and improvement the government has put to low income areas of Santo Domingo. Don't miss out on these tours your next time in the city!
