Cool! That must have been nice to go there on business.definitely stay in the resorts and take the guided tours. my husband had to travel to the DR quite a bit for work a few years ago,I doubt it's changed much. Please be aware their cleanliness and sanitation standards are not like ours. and be very careful of the ceviche! (a little bout of intestinal problems!) Even though he was staying at a fairly upscale business hotel, he came back with some friends that took us 2 years to finally get rid of.
on the other hand he did enjoy the weather and the few tours he was able to take.
Yep, its not the prettiest country, besides the resorts. Even at the resorts, I read you aren't even suppose to brush your teeth with the water. I guess the locals are used to that water and have no problem with it though.Last year I went to Samana part of Dom. Republic. It was the Pitts. In fact we were told not to drink the water. Everybody is in a police uniform? Would not go back.
