Bonjour, je me suis récemment inscrite sur le site VoyageForum car je compte partir 10 jours en République Dominicaine avec un ami. 🙂
1. Nous partons en Juillet. Est-ce la période la plus touristique de l'année?
2. Nous souhaitons faire du surf, des balades à cheval ou en quad, du Jet ski, les plages et les cascades (en bons touristes) du coup quel coté de l’île nous conseilleriez-vous pour loger? Et qui nous conseilleriez-vous? Peut-on également faire du canyoning, de la plongée, voir des dauphins?
3. Quels sont les endroits typiques à voir (selon la où vous nous conseilleriez de loger)?
4. Je souhaiterai passer deux jours à Haiti. Comment pourrions nous nous y rendre (avion, bus)?
5. Quelle est l'age de majorité en République Dominicaine? (Pour rentrer dans les casinos par exemple, nous avons 19 ans tout les deux)
6. Il y a-t-il également des monuments, des îlots à visiter?
Dans tout notre programme nous souhaiterions éviter au maximum les zones utra-touristiques car nous voudrions voir la vrai face du pays. Nous arrivons et partons depuis l'aéroport de Saint-Domingue, Les Américanas
Merci beaucoup de l'attention de vous porterez à mon message, j'attends vos réponses avec grande impatience! 🙂
En pleine saison des pluies. Normalement. La meteo est capricieuse.
Passer des vacances hors circuits touristiques... et visiter un parc (prison) à dauphins! Il faut choisir.
Du surf, a las terrenas, du cheval, partout mais pas au meme prix, du quad là ou il y a des touristes, du jet ski à Boca Chica, les cascades, là ou il y a des montagnes comme à Jarabacoa,
Casinos, !!! ultra touristique, aller plutot a St Martin,
Ile Saona.
Hahiti, l'avion Air Caraibes y fait escale avant d''aller a St Domingue. Sinon, le bus. Mais pour quoi y faire?
Juillet est une période où il y a beaucoup de touristes, non que ce soit la meilleure période, mais congés scolaires obligent....Et, en conséquence, c'est l'une des périodes les plus chères....
Comme le disait Chibani, que je salue au passage, entre resorts tout inclus et vie dominicaine réelle, il faut choisir....
Ou alors, peut être, aller dans un resort tout inclus qui ne soit pas, lui même, situé dans une gigantesque usine à touristes et donc duquel on peut facilement et rapidement, atteindre la vie locale dominicaine.
Dans ce cadre, et vu les activités que vous voulez pratiquer, je vous conseille les hôtels RIU près de Puerto Plata (une douzaine de km). Il y a un casino dans l'hôtel, qui sera parfait si vous avez beaucoup d'argent à perdre. Votre âge vous permettra d'y entrer.Le petit village de Maimon, dans lequel il y a rarement des touristes, est à seulement 2,5 km. Il y a plein de restaurants de poissons et de fruits de mer tous aussi bons les uns que les autres et pas chers du tout (attention, vous êtes hors zone touristique, prévoir des pesos). Vous pouvez y aller à pied, ou prendre la guagua (minibus). Prix : 0,25 peso, soit 0,50 euro) : vous sortez de l'hôtel, vous ne traversez pas la route et faites signe à la première guagua, qui s'arrête si ce n'est pas une guagua expreso qui va directement, sans arrêt, à Imbert, ou Santiago
Pour aller à Puerto Plata, vous traversez la route et idem, vous faites signe à la première guagua qui passe. Même prix. Avant d'arriver à Puerto Plata, vous passerez devant Ocean World (si vous tenez à voir des dauphins) sur votre gauche. Il vous restera environ 1,5 km à faire à pied. Puis vous passerez devant le téléphérique (sur votre droite). Il vous restera environ 1 km à faire à pied avec une route qui monte très fort. Mais si vous voulez, il y a toujours des motos taxis. Refusez fermement de payer plus que 30 pesos, mais il faut vous mettre d'accord sur le prix avant de vous asseoir. Ce prix est valable pour tout trajet à l'intérieur de Puerto Plata, avec un motoconcho sans sortir de l'agglomération.
Pour changer de l'argent en pesos (payer en dollars ou en euros = pigeon à plumer), changez le minimum du minimum (5 euros) à votre hôtel. Puis prenez la guagua vers Puerto Plata. (Javilla Tours) Lorsque vous arrivez en ville, on vous demandera où vous allez lorsque vous serez quasiment tout seuls dans la guagua. Vous direz que vous allez à Caribe Tours (prononcez Caribé Tourz). Il s'agit d'une compagnie d'autocars de lignes interurbains très connue. La guagua passe juste devant. Vous avez là un bureau de change qui pratique un taux de change correct.
Pour aller visiter le musée de l'ambre ou Brugal (sur place, célèbre marque de rhum), n'hésitez pas à faire appel aux motoconchos (moto taxis). Ne prenez que ceux qui portent un gilet fluorescent avec un n° d'enregistrement. Et préférez ceux qui sont un peu âgés.....
Vous pourrez aller visiter les 27 charcos (les 27 chutes) à Damajagua, c'est à dire un peu après Imbert.
Visiter des monuments : ça c'est à Saint Domingue.....
Aller à Haïti : pour quoi faire ? Je ne peux que vous le déconseiller. En tout état de cause, même s'il y a des lignes régulières d'autocars (Caribe Tours ou Terrabus) pour aller de Saint Domingue à Port au Prince, c'est formellement déconseillé. Si vous voulez aller là, il faut impérativement prendre l'avion : lignes régulières depuis l'aéroport la Isabela de Saint Domingue (rien à voir avec l'aéroport las americas de Saint Domingue.)
Pour aller de l'aéroport Las americas de Saint Domingue à Puerto Plata :
Si vous venez de l'Europe, vous arriverez en après midi ou en soirée. Je vous conseille bien vivement d'aller passer une nuit près de l'aéroport (idem au retour). C'est ainsi que j'ai l'habitude de procéder. Je peux vous conseiller un très bon hôtel tout rénové, très économique (900 pesos, soit 18 euros, la nuit) tenu par une personne parfaitement francophone. 10 km de l'aéroport.
Prix du taxi aéroport - hôtel : le prix officiel est de 30 dollars US. Mais je n'ai jamais payé plus de 20 dollars US ou 900 pesos... Il faut un peu de patience pour négocier et surtout, rester ferme sur le prix....
Le lendemain matin, avant de partir, vous allez changer de l'argent (ne surtout pas changer à l'aéroport !!!) : vous faites quelques centaines de mètres pour aller à la rue principale (calle Duarte). Là, il y a plein de bureaux de change qui affichent le taux pratiqué.
Juste la rue parallèle, avant d'arriver à la calle Duarte, passent les guaguas. Pas moyen de se tromper : il n'y a qu'une seule ligne de guagua, et à cet endroit, c'est un circuit (un seul sens de circulation). Vous faites signe, et vous montez. Vous dites "la capital" et vous ne payez rien. On aura un oeil sur vous, au terminus, à Andrés, quelques km plus loin, pour voir si vous prenez bien la guagua pour la capitale. On vous dirigera vers la guagua "expreso". Vos valises, si elles sont volumineuses, seront mises dans le coffre de la guagua. Prix : 60 pesos (1,20 euro)
A Saint Domingue, après avoir traversé un très grand pont suspendu (vous êtes sur l'avenida 27 de febrero) la guagua, quelques centaines de mètres plus loin, tournera à gauche. Vous descendez là. Un billet de 50 pesos (1 euro) à la main, vous demandez au "cobrador" (l'encaisseur) de vous aider pour vos valises (maleta, prononcez "maléta", en montrant le coffre du doigt.
Vous retournez sur l'avenida 27 de febrero. Pas de souci, à cet endroit, l'avenida 27 de febrero est en sens unique.
Vous faites signe à la première guagua (ou autobus) sur lequel est écrit en gros sur le pare brise "corredor 27 de febrero"
3 genres de guagua ou autobus :
- les petites guaguas du même genre que celle que vous venez de prendre (25 pesos= 0,50 euro)
- les autobus "la nueva opcion" 25 pesos.
- les autobus verts de la régie publique OMSA (15 pesos)
Pas de souci avec vos valises (sauf heures de pointe) avec les deux premiers. Mais si c'est "la nueva opcion, demandez à monter par la porte arrière en montrant vos valises.
Dites que vous allez à Caribe Tours (prononcez caribé tourz), et on vous dira où descendre. Tout le monde connaît. De toute façon vous verrez Caribe Tours à votre droite, à un angle de rue, quelques km plus loin.
Temps total de trajet jusque là depuis votre hôtel : environ 1 heure à 1 heure 15.
Et à Caribe Tours, vous avez un autocar Saint Domingue - Puerto Plata toutes les heures, sur l'heure juste, de 6 heures du matin à 19 heures. Temps de trajet officiel : 4 heures. En réalité, environ 4 heures 15. Prix : 320 pesos (6,40 euros). Autocars très confortables, sièges inclinables, mais ayez des vêtements chauds : les dominicains adorent la climatisation à fond.....
Vous aurez un très très bref arrêt à La Vega, puis un autre très bref arrêt à Santiago, puis un autre arrêt de, très exactement 10 minutes, à un autre endroit de Santiago. Là, vous pouvez descendre, mais, attention, exactement 10 minutes plus tard, l'autocar repart et n'attend personne....
Arrivés à Puerto Plata (organisez vous pour arriver de jour !!!), soit vous prenez un taxi (il y en a toujours qui attendent....), soit vous faites 500 mètres pour aller au terminus de "Javilla Tours" Montrez "Javilla Tours" sur un bout de papier, car la prononciation du "J" est très spéciale en espagnol
A Javilla Tours, vous dites que vous allez à Maimon et on vous indiquera dans quelle guagua monter. Prix : 25 pesos. Puis vous direz que vous allez aux hôtels Riu et on vous indiquera où descendre.
Bon, déjà avec un trajet fait de cette façon, vous aurez déjà eu droit à une véritable immersion dans la vie dominicaine et en saurez plus sur le pays que la plupart des touristes....
Trajet retour : c'est presque idem, sauf quelques détails à Saint Domingue que je vous indiquerai si vous voulez.
La précision était parfaite, merci! Finalement on s'est dit qu'une immersion vallait toujours mieux qu'un séjour touriste! J' imprimerai votre message on ne sait jamais 😏

Hi,
I’m heading to Miches for the first time in November 2026 (no all-inclusive)
I’d love some tips to plan my stay—accommodation, things to do, places of interest nearby.
Is it possible to rent a scooter there to get around the area?
Thanks for your help!
Best,
hi there, I’ve never been to Martinique. my girlfriend, who’s of Martinican origin, has never had the chance to go either (life isn’t always easy). now we can plan a little trip, but we don’t know which airline to choose or how to find accommodation.
basically, I need quite a few tips.
we’re planning to go in September—no chance before that.
Hi! We spent 10 wonderful days in Guadeloupe’s gorgeous climate. Our arrival got off to a shaky start, though—our suitcase was left behind at the airport, which caused quite a stir. A police officer was shouting at us to get out and cross the street. Then, a taxi driver refused to take us after we showed him where we were staying, right by the port in Pointe-à-Pitre. "No one goes there," he told us! Good thing we arrived during Carnival! A second driver finally agreed to take us, and I can say he knew every nook and cranny of his city.
The rest of the trip was amazing. The locals were smiling and welcoming. We didn’t rent a car, so we didn’t get around much and stayed in the Deshaies area—a real favorite. Plage de la Perle (Pearl Beach) truly lives up to its name! We liked Grande Anse Beach less because of the steep slope, which made walking tricky, and the waves were pretty intense. The landscapes in this part of the island are idyllic. We visited the botanical garden—it’s worth it—and went to the port in Deshaies. If we ever go back, we’ll rent a vehicle so we can explore more, because taxis aren’t cheap!
Hi, I’m leaving soon for Punta Cana—what kind of money should we bring: Canadian dollars, US dollars, or are we forced to exchange once we arrive?
Thanks
We spent 15 days in the Exumas from March 10th to 26th.
I should mention that we’ve been traveling to islands for 20 years, so we have points of comparison when it comes to prices, hospitality, and landscapes.
First, the flights: we now live in the Luberon, so we flew out of Marseille. We took British Airways, which we’ve used several times before for trips to the English-speaking Caribbean and which offers flights via Heathrow. We had an overnight layover in London on the way out, then a flight to Nassau. After that, we took a connecting flight (we had a 2h20 layover in Nassau, which was more than enough) to George Town with Sky Bahamas. We had initially ruled out Bahamasair based on very negative reviews.
Immigration and customs were very quick.
When we arrived, we took a taxi to our hotel, Augusta Bay. Cost: $30.
We rented a car through Sure and Shore. It was delivered to our hotel the day after we arrived, and we kept it until we left for Stocking Island. For 9 days, we paid $470 (which is a great price) for a small Honda that wasn’t very new, but we didn’t have any issues with it. One thing we’d never experienced before: they’d put newspaper sheets on the floor, and we were told not to get any sand in the car if we went to the beach!
We stayed 5 nights at Augusta Bay. A 5-minute walk away is the beautiful, uncrowded Jolly Beach, perfect for swimming. We visited the southern part of the island to see the beaches of Little Exuma, especially Tropic of Cancer Beach and the one next to Santana’s restaurant. We also went to Hopper Bay Beach, where you can see a group of about ten turtles near a small boat dock. We went kayaking from the hotel.
Then we stayed at Paradise Bay in the north. While we hadn’t encountered the sandfly problem before, here it’s important to know that the beach is infested with them. The hotel’s restaurant, which is very good otherwise, even provides repellent for guests— that’s how bad it is!
From there, we visited Coco Plum Beach, Three Sisters Beach (where you can snorkel), and others. We also went kayaking again.
We ended our trip with 3 nights on Stocking Island at Saint Francis Resort. If we were to do it again, we’d spend 4 nights there. The island has many trails, snorkeling spots, and you can get around by kayak. We saw rays, turtles, and even a harmless shark, as well as some beautiful beaches. Plus, the welcome at Saint Francis was the warmest we experienced.
Be aware that everything is very expensive on the island—much more so than in the English-speaking Caribbean. Clearly, the purchasing power of Americans plays a role. They say everything is imported, but that’s the case on all islands!
Some places only accept cash or charge a 5% fee if you pay by card.
We didn’t find the locals particularly friendly. If you’ve been to Dominica or Grenada, for example, you’ll know what I mean.
We explored the whole island. The beaches are stunning, but the roads tell a different story. There are a lot of car wrecks—some houses have two or three in front of them, which really spoils the landscape. There are also many abandoned, ruined houses.
The vegetation is lush but not tropical, and you’ll be served apples and oranges for breakfast because there are very few exotic fruits.
As for the climate in March, there was no humid atmosphere, and the heat was very manageable (26°C). It was very pleasant. The seawater, however, is definitely cooler than in the Indian Ocean, for example.
There’s not much snorkeling, but we knew that before coming.
In conclusion: beautiful beaches, sand as fine as flour, and a very pleasant climate. But honestly, for the same cost, I’d prefer the Seychelles, for example.
Hi everyone,
I need your help!
We’re planning to visit Guadeloupe and take the opportunity to explore the islands La Désirade, Marie-Galante, and Les Saintes.
I initially planned to rent a car to get around the main island and then take the ferry from Trois-Rivières to Les Saintes, from Pointe-à-Pitre to Marie-Galante, and finally from Saint-François to La Désirade, following that route.
But when I look at it, the car would sit unused for at least 5 days—that’s paying for nothing🙁.
Is it possible to go from LES SAINTES to MARIE-GALANTE and then on to LA DÉSIRADE? We’d only rent a car once we arrive in Saint-François to continue exploring Guadeloupe. What do you think—is that doable?
This trip is planned for April.
Thanks so much for your help
Just a quick update on the state of this road: the unpaved section has been significantly improved. You can now complete the journey in about 4 to 4.5 hours instead of 6. Great news! For me, the most hazardous part is actually the paved section before and after Sagua. It encourages higher speeds, but there are deep, dangerous potholes that appear without warning. Be careful!
I’d also note that despite occasional power outages—which casas and paladares know how to handle—tourism remains perfectly doable. Cuba is still magical! I was just told, with a touch of humor, that the official German government website suggests bringing your own toilet paper and candles… Hmm, maybe an update on rechargeable gear would be in order…
Hi! We’re visiting Guadeloupe for the first time in January. We’re looking for accommodation near Deshaies to start our trip. A quiet spot, not too far from the sea so we can walk there. Any suggestions are welcome!
I’ve just returned from 15 days in Cuba and wanted to share my experience along with some practical tips for those planning a trip there.
1. Formalities:
- Passport valid for at least 6 months after your return.
- E-visa: apply online (payment by bank transfer only via the embassy of your choice): evisacuba.cu or through an agency novelacuba.com (card payment on their site—I had to go with this option and recommend it because the Cuban embassy in Brussels apparently never received my transfer...)
- Digital D’Viajeros form to fill out a few days before departure
- Mandatory health insurance
2. Currency/budget
- Plan your entire budget in cash; card payments are rare, and withdrawals at the official rate aren’t great.
Local currency: CUP (Cuban Peso)
Official rate: ~1 € = 120 CUP → state-run restaurants and shops.
Current unofficial rate: ~1 € = 490 CUP → private restaurants, local bars, Cuban-owned shops.
For exchanging money:
The easiest way: ask at your *casa particular* or a local restaurant.
3. My itinerary (15 days)
Havana: 3 nights
Viñales: 3 nights
Cienfuegos: 1 night
Trinidad: 3 nights
Varadero: 3 nights
Havana: 1 night
Flights: Air Europa from Brussels, with a layover in Madrid. Smooth and pleasant service.
Accommodations: *casas particulares* booked on Airbnb except for Varadero (Iberostar Playa Alameda hotel).
Practical tips
Install a VPN before departure (many blocked sites like Instagram and Airbnb).
Download the El Toque app to check the updated CUP exchange rate.
Internet via ETECSA SIM card (~30 € for 10 GB) or Wi-Fi in hotels/*casas*.
Download Maps.me for offline maps.
Intercity travel: shared taxi, Viazul bus, or private transfer through your *casa*.
Electricity: 110 V, sometimes 220 V.
Bring basic supplies and medications—hard to find there.
Cuba requires flexibility and openness: regular power outages, unstable internet (especially in Trinidad).
Finally, my personal take:
I loved my trip to Cuba! It’s a disorienting yet deeply charming country.
Poverty is visible, especially in Havana: crumbling buildings, many people asking for help (but no safety concerns!). Bringing some essentials for locals is a good idea (soap, toothpaste, medications, clothes...).
Cubans are incredibly welcoming and friendly. A few basics in Spanish help a lot! The vibe is unique: music in every street, musicians everywhere, salsa all around.
The variety of landscapes is amazing: colonial architecture, paradise beaches, mountains, waterfalls, lush valleys—you’ll never get bored.
Only downside: Varadero, less authentic than the rest of the country, but I expected that!
Overall, it was a wonderful trip, and I’d love to go back!
Hi,
Several comments recommend bringing mosquito repellent. Got it. Are there a lot of them during the day? And by the seaside? Or are they more present (and voracious) in the evening? Thanks.
I bought tickets for Martinique in April 2025 for 15 days, without really looking into what there was to do, and with the idea in my head that we could: hike, do water activities, swim, visit rum distilleries...
But... I’m worried I’ll get bored over 15 days and I’m considering maybe spending 1 week in Guadeloupe and 1 week in Martinique.
For example, I don’t know how to spend a whole afternoon at the beach. 2 hours, max.
I know it’s a personal question and depends on how you travel, but I’d love to hear your thoughts if you’ve done it:
- Did you feel too rushed?
- Is it reasonable to do?
- How much time would you spend on each island?
I’ve just returned from Havana after an 18-day stay from October 8th to 26th.
From Montreal, you have to go through Varadero Airport. I now break up the airport-to-Havana transfer with a SUPER pleasant stopover halfway, in the historic village of Hershey (Camilo Cienfuegos). Quebecer Anne-Marie has renovated a century-old house there, and every stay of mine feels like a peaceful oasis. Amazing food, a pool, impeccable hospitality—I highly recommend it! Casa Cub'Anita.
Life for Cubans remains just as tough, made even harder right now by tropical viruses spread by mosquitoes. It’s absolutely essential to protect yourself properly. That said, the purchasing power of foreign currency hasn’t changed much, despite skyrocketing inflation. As of today, the US dollar exchanges for nearly 500 pesos on the "informal market."
This was my first time staying in Vieja, in the non-touristy part. I discovered some great little restaurants run by the younger generation. Affordable, excellent food, and remarkably friendly service: El Chanchulero (it was about time I checked it out—unbeatable value for money!), El Café, Jibaro...
Cubans are still as warm and welcoming as ever—bicitaxis, servers, markets. Speaking the language is a huge plus.
Essentials to download from abroad before you leave: the maps.me offline maps app, and the La Nave taxi/motorcycle taxi app, which is super efficient for getting around the capital.
Sending my best to all my friends in Oriente as the hurricane passes, especially to Baracoa. I’m planning to visit this winter.
I’m planning a trip to Cuba this summer and I’d love some info: Is travel insurance really necessary? Can you easily get online by buying a local SIM card or internet card? Apparently, there’s only one currency now—is it better to exchange money with your *casa particular* host?
Thanks for all these valuable tips!
Hi!
I’m heading to Havana for a week in February. I’m looking for a casa particular that’s affordable, clean, and cozy. Since I’ll be traveling alone, I’d love a place where people are welcoming!
Also, I really want to stay in Habana Vieja...
Do you have any recommendations for places you’ve stayed before?
I tried booking the casa particular *Chez Nous*, but I never got a response.
Hi fellow travelers,
We're heading to Martinique for a month from mid-January to mid-February.
Our plan is to explore the island by staying in three different spots for 10 days each, on both sides of the island...
Could you share some great tips on where to stay for an authentic experience and what we absolutely must see?!
Hi there,
In March 2026 I’ll be at the Club Med in Sainte-Anne and I’m thinking of heading to Les Saintes at the end of my stay.
Do you know what the most convenient way to get there is?
Thanks so much!
Hi everyone.
For those traveling to Cuba and then planning to go to the USA, you won’t be able to get your ESTA for the United States (same applies) if you’ve been to Cuba after 2021 due to a law passed by Donald Trump (a law that Biden later repealed).
You’ll have no choice but to apply for a visa, which costs 200 € (and approval isn’t guaranteed even after payment).
If you’re in this situation, the process to get this visa will be a real hassle—you’ll need to book an appointment at the U.S. Embassy in Paris. It’s the only embassy in France authorized to handle your application after you’ve filled out the visa request on the official website.
If you try to cheat by applying for an ESTA for the USA, just know that the American administration has ways of finding out if you’ve been to Cuba. 😉
I'm looking for information on the islands of Puerto Rico, St. Barthélemy, and St. Martin for March 2026.
What is there to see, and if possible, prices or tips, please?
Thanks, Michel V.
I’ve booked a room at an all-inclusive in Varadero for January 2025. This will be my 3rd trip to Cuba, the last one was 20 years ago.
The whole tipping and gratuities thing is wearing me out. Even though it’s an all-inclusive package, I think it’d be rude not to leave any tips for the bar staff and the housekeeping team, especially.
Here’s what I’m aiming for:
1. Not feeling stingy (or “feeling cheap” for my fellow Quebecers);
2. Not disrespecting Cubans by offering junk or, on the flip side, going overboard and creating unrealistic expectations for future tourists;
3. And most importantly, not spending the whole week wondering if I’m doing the right thing. I’m going there to relax, not to stress!
Hi there,
I’m planning our upcoming trip to Guadeloupe. We’re looking for a place to stay where human contact is a priority, with air conditioning, close to the beaches, and clean.
We’ve had several responses. After doing some research online, I was able to rule out quite a few options.
But now I’m deciding between:
Kokoplaj, tipayoune (issue: no AC, just fans—is that a problem?), Résidence Le Zandoli, and Gwada Rêves.
If you have any info or experiences to share, I’d love to hear them! ;-)
Thanks for your help!
See you soon...
I’m heading to Blau Costa Verde next February and I’d like to rent a scooter to explore the area. Are the roads around Holguín in good condition? I’m thinking of renting one for 1–2 or 3 days to visit Holguín, Gibara, and Banes on my own. Do you recommend it (I’ve got a great sense of direction)? How much does it usually cost to rent a scooter for 2 or 3 days (or a car, though I’d prefer a scooter)? Also, are there any other interesting spots nearby you’d suggest checking out?
Are there any excursions to Santiago, and how much do they typically cost?
Hi,
When booking the tickets to Martinique for our family, I must have made a mistake, and on one of the tickets, the third first name is wrong. Michel instead of Joel...
CORSAIR Airlines is telling me I have to buy a new ticket for 1200 € (Christmas period). I think that’s outrageous and, above all, impossible for us.
I’m desperate—I feel like Corsair is really overdoing it.
Is there any recourse? How can I get out of this?
I’m throwing this message in a bottle, just in case...😕
Hi, I'm looking for a car rental for January 2020 in Guadeloupe. There are several agencies I've seen reviews for—has anyone dealt with Autolagon before?
Thanks!
I’m heading to Bayahibe this winter. It’ll be my second time in this country, where I feel so at home.
I’d love to bring back some Larimar jewelry... the real deal.
I saw some at a shop in the Iberostar Dominicus hotel, but I’m guessing I can find it cheaper elsewhere. Maybe in La Romana?
If anyone has any tips on this, I’d really appreciate it.
Some wholesalers are canceling trips to Cuba, but I still want to visit my favorite country. For those who went there in November, what’s the situation like at all-inclusive hotels?
