What to expect

Take a STEP walking tour through the cobbled lanes and leafy squares of Altos de Chavon – a place that's like a little Italy, but in the middle of the Dominican Republic. Along with its art galleries, workshops and al fresco cafés, you can visit its archaeological museum and the amphitheatre that Frank Sinatra christened.

Surrounded by pretty gardens, pavement cafés and some stunning scenery, this replica Mediterranean village looks like the real deal. But it's more than just a tourist attraction – it's a culture hub, too.

Music megastars like Frank Sinatra, Carlos Santana and the Pet Shop Boys have all graced the stage of its Roman-style amphitheatre. And inside St. Stanislaus Church & Art Museum, you can admire works by local artists. Then there's the shopping. Enjoy free time to explore its boutiques, jewellers and craft shops for gifts and souvenirs you won't find anywhere else.

There are few better ways to see the unspoilt Dominican countryside than a Terracross safari. You'll drive through winding rural dirt tracks through plantations all the way to the famous Domitai Cave Park and a replica Taino village.

These sinkholes with clear, fresh water are perfect for a cooling dip. As it's a private venue, there are fewer crowds and vendors than at other cenotes.

The seas off Punta Cana are ideal for deep sea fishing. You'll cruise out into the open ocean in search of perfect fishing locations, cast your fishing rods over the edge of the boat and wait in beautiful surroundings for a fish to take the bait with other like-minded guests. You can go on either a morning or afternoon expedition and if you're not into fishing, you can just enjoy the boat trip.You'll have four hours of tracking and fishing. Of course, it won't be all work and no play – there'll be multiple fishing rods so that every guest can take it in turns to reel the prize in.While you're waiting patiently, you'll be able to help yourself from the self-service cooler on deck. But make sure you keep a close eye on the rods for signs of a bite as you never know when luck might strike. And if fishings not your thing, take the time to catch some rays on deck and enjoy a soft drink.
