The Battle of Santo Domingo is an immersive 4D cinema experience. It takes you into the physical and virtual world of pirate Sir Francis Drake, and his dramatic invasion of the walled city of Santo Domingo. It's a virtual walk through yesteryear.
Afterwards, stroll through the Old Town, where some stunning buildings -- remnants of the Colonial period -- still reside. You'll pass the National Pantheon -- tomb of famous writers, politicians and heroes of the Republic. Walk down the famous Calle Las Damas -- the first cobblestone street built in the Americas -- lined with beautiful old buildings.
Step inside the impressive Las Casas Reales Museum. For three centuries, the administrative offices of the Colonial Government were housed here. Then, head to Santa María la Menor for a guided tour of the first cathedral in the Americas.
Enjoy some free time for shopping before walking back to your transportation.
