Santo Domingo

[jjjct]

For all of you that can't get info on Santo Domingo port, we searched this sight and never got any info. This is our take on this recent port.

 

We visited Santo Domingo on NCL Jade in February. Only 4 cruise excursions available from NCL and not anything we wanted to pay for.

We choice to walk off the ship and walk over to Zonal Colonial - the historical part of Santo Domingo. There were many cruisers walking there. I did not wear jewelry and did not carry a purse. Many others did, and did not hear of any issues.

 

We ported in Sans Souci and walked about a mile to the historical area, it dates back to Christofer Columbus and has some amazing structures from the 1500's. I was not so sure if we wanted to even get off the ship at first, but we did. There is a lot of police and Military with Guns patrolling the streets. You will feel safe. We enjoyed our walk and seeing this area, we are 58 and 57 and active and had no problem walking back and forth from this area. Defintly worth a visit, a beautiful area.
