Cookmb Posted September 26, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I am developing a headache trying to find something to do in La Romana. I really am not interested in visiting Altos de Chavon. We are two couples, mid 40s, that want to see the natural beauty of the area. I have read about Seavis tours to Saona Island, but I do not want to sit on a beach all day, I want to explore the countryside. I originally had hoped to go to Santo Domingo before I realized the drive would take approximately 6 hours round trip and there would be little time to exlore. Any suggestions for things to do would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue_water Posted September 27, 2016 #3 Share Posted September 27, 2016 The Seavis Saona island tour includes a beach stop but also a tour through the mangroves and other areas. It is a day on the water. They and Pro Excursions also offer land-based excursions - just check their sites, much to choose from! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krismas_tina Posted October 11, 2016 #4 Share Posted October 11, 2016 We did an excursion to Santo Domingo once and had a great time. I don't think the ride was 3 hours each way. It was long but not that long. My husband loves history and there is plenty of that in Santo Domingo. We went into an old church, museums, shops, and had a great lunch. It was a full day and definitely worth it, especially if beaches are not your thing. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marci4tony Posted November 14, 2016 #7 Share Posted November 14, 2016 Seavis does an easy going, jungle tour as well - Slow going, but absolutely stunning scenery. Boat heads up the river to their camp, where they fix you a "native" lunch - chicken and pork and local fixings. Then you are able to take a kayak tour down the river, if you choose. They also have a fun tree swing to play on. Very different from sitting at the beach all day - the mosquitos were not bad at all. And is was so beautiful!
