Dominican Republic

 

 

Discovered by Christopher Columbus in December, 1492, the Dominican Republic today is a colorful tapestry of Spanish, French, Haitian, and African influences woven by a rich and storied history. Columbus described this lush land as "a beautiful island paradise with high forested mountains and large river valleys". This statement is still true today. In addition to the comforts of sun, sea, and sand, the Dominican Republic offers an exciting and unique cultural experience that captivates the senses.

 

The pulse-pounding thrill of the merengue, intriguing relics from centuries past, premium cigars, world-class baseball and of course unparalleled rum are all found in the Dominican Republic.
