Are you excited about planning your next trip? Do you want to try something new? Would you like some guidance from a local? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this Greater Than a Tourist book is for you. Greater Than a Tourist- Santo Domingo, Capital City, Dominican Republic by Isabel Santos.

Santo Domingo is the capital city of Dominican Republic. When the island was first discovered by Christopher Columbus, it was called LA HISPANIOLA. The island was then divided into two countries with Dominican Republic on the east side of the island and Haiti to the west. The island is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean to the North and the Caribbean Sea to the South. The Mona Channel and Puerto Rico are located to the East of the island. Some people confuse Dominican Republic and its capital, Santo Domingo, with Puerto Rico or Cuba. I hope that after reading this guide, you are able to see what unique features Dominican Republic has to offer. Once you become an expert, perhaps you may educate other travelers about this beautiful island and encourage them to explore it as well, with the help of this guide. There are more touristic areas to explore in Dominican Republic, outside the capital city, Santo Domingo. Some of those places are: Punta Cana, Puerto Plata, Samana, Bavaro Beach, La Romana, and so many more.

Most travel books tell you how to travel like a tourist. Although there is nothing wrong with that, as part of the Greater Than a Tourist series, this book will give you travel tips from someone who has lived at your next travel destination.

This book will not tell you exact addresses or store hours but instead will give you excitement and knowledge from a local that you may not find in other smaller print travel books. Travel like a local. Slow down, stay in one place, and get to know the people and culture. By the time you finish this book, you will be eager and prepared to travel to your next destination.
