Great place for shopping and groceries.
Our guide,Jose, was extremely knowledgeable and spoke English and 5 other languages. The Altos de Chacon stop was breathtakingly beautiful. The negatives were that in the email confirmation the pickup time was 7:30am, but they showed up at 8:45 am. the other big negative for me was the shopping in La Romana was not at a Dominican Jumbo, but at a tourist trap with prices even higher than at our resort, both these negatives were explained as a mis print in the description and the booking confirmation.
I never did it. They went ahead and didn't warn me.
My first time to the Plaza while on vacation. It was clean and not crowded. There were really nice items to buy. If I’m ever in the area again I will update with pictures for you all to see.
Very clean and smart. Nice selection of stores. Nice selection at the food court.
Multiple Plaza la romana, is a very big , helpful, plaza for people who s live la romana and around la romana, like bayahibe, denerito , guahimates ect , it's have a lot of different stores, and fun for kids, cinema, restaurants, and more, you're in la romana its a great time to get a chance to see this place.
Had an unexpected included boat excursion on the Rio Chavón which was very pleasant. The trip to cigar factory interesting but I don't smoke. The chocolate factory was more a chocolate sampling chocolate tasty but very expensive, The trip to Altos de Chavón which was billed as the highlight and shopping experience was very rushed no time to visit the artist studios-shops. Only has 1/2 hour here rushed to amphitheatre the fountain and church then out. No map provided for the group tour. Should have at least 1 & 1/2 hours here. The time at the handicraft market and commercial grocery store adequate. Not sure we really had a tour of the city La Romana.
Guide was great, but would have preferred just English
