 in the cigar factory by mabu In La Romana there are two cigar factorys. One is somewhere in the town, the other near the harbour. We tried to visit the bigger one at the harbour first but couldn't. They only do tours if it's organised before. Then we tryed the second one. This factory is only very small but you can look at it. The cigars are rolled by hand. If you want you can buy some cigars after the visit (but you need to ask to, they don't ask you!!!). The visit was quite fascinating, one of the employees welcomed us with a cigar (my first cigar ever..) and showed us around. Then we could wander around and look over the shoulders of the working people. It was no problem to take pictures. You can see some in the cigar t-logue on this page Tha factory is open until 16.30. . Leave a Comment Directions: The factory is somewhere in the top bit of the town. We took a moto concho (see transport tip) to get there, probably the only way to find it...

 Spices on La Romana Market by mabu In La Romana there is a market, a real musst see. On the Market you can buy all different kind of things, fruit, vegetables, spices, meat, cloathes and much more. The Market is very colorfull and loaded with more or less nice smells. There is absolutly no problem just wandering around and looking at the different stalls without buying anything. We weren't bothered with penetrant sellers, a simple "no gracias" would do to stop them trying. Leave a Comment Directions: Well, here it get's difficult ;-) The Guagua from Bayahibe stiops near the market so we didn't have to search. But you can ask any local who will show you.

 One of the Churches by mabu La Romana is somehow a very confusing town. Streets go everywhere, people, cars and motorbikes are everywhere but no street looks alike. On the way to a shop we lost track of the streets and landed somewhere totaly different as planned... There are thousands of little shops, lots of churches and colourfull houses to be seen. One landmark helps you orientate: The chimneys of the sugar factory spitting out lots of smoke. In some places you could smell the sweet sugary smoke. Leave a Comment

Go on the outback safari, you spend the day going into the countryside. There are many things to see from sugarcane fields being harvested to a typical dominican family house we got to visit. There is also a river trip, and a lunch in the country. Horseback riding or in a wagon if you can't ride. It gets you away from the city and the beach which can become boring after a while. Leave a Comment Directions: There is an outback safari in the north, south and east coasts, so nomater where you stay you can go on one. They pick you up at your hotel.Other Contact: They have a website www.outbacks

by Patricialuv When you visit La Romana, you can also visit 'Las Islas Catalinas', south of La Romana. They're little islands, just a boat ride away from La Romana. I really recommend it. You'll feel like those people on Survivor! (except for the rats and the gruesome acts! )

by screamin57 while in the area of juan dolio, the town of Boca Chica is a good day trip. Lots of beach bars and shopping the beach is also very nice in Boca Chica. The water in boca chica is various shades of blue and the inlet type area makes for very calm waters for wadeing in. Leave a Comment

 Park in La Romana city centre by mabu La Romana has a very nicely kept park in the city centre, the perfect place to rest your legs and sit down. There are lots of different tropical plants growing there, sometimes obviously some performances like theatre, music etc. Leave a Comment Directions: In the city centre

by myriam_c From the resort it's only a short walk to the village of Bayahibe. This is also the place from where the catamarans to Saona Island leave. Leave a Comment

by myriam_c When you're in the south of the island, visit Altos de Chavón. This picture is taken at the Rio Chavón. Altos de Chavón is an artist village situated hight above the Chavón River. It has a tradition of arts and crafts and there are lots of art galleries. It looks very old with its cobblestoned paths, but in fact it's fairly recent. Leave a Comment
