I am very happy with the service and overall. We have been picked up from hotel on time. Trip to SanDomongo took 2 hrs by Cadillac, which was comfy and roomy for all family of 5. Driver very pleasant gentlemen took us to our destination where we met with our tour guide Manuel. Friendly Man showed us city and told us many interesting things about country and capital, he also took us to places we asked for . If you thinking to book day trip please believe me well worth it especially if you have kids. I do recommend very highly and for sure will come back to San Domingo to see more next year. Thank you
