Over four hours you move through cool shadowed courtyards, across cobbled streets and out to the bright concrete of the Faro a Colón before descending into the limestone cave lakes of Los Tres Ojos.

Santo Domingo’s Colonial Zone is the oldest continuously inhabited European settlement in the Americas; its cathedral began construction in 1512 and was central to Spanish colonial administration.
Tres Ojos is a delicate limestone cave system—tourism pressure has prompted pathing and rules to protect water quality and cave formations; pack out trash and avoid entering restricted areas.
