The experience

You start in the historic center, where the streets are painted in bright colors and colonial buildings rise on both sides. The first stop is Santo Domingo Church, and the plaza and church give your photos their first real backdrops. From there you move corner to corner with your guide, who points out the best spots in the streets, houses and landmarks around you.

The route goes on past San Pedro Claver Cathedral, and the old streets keep offering new frames. Then you reach the city walls, where the Caribbean Sea opens up beside you and the historic center stretches out below. The romantic atmosphere of the city is never far from the camera.

The Clock Tower closes the walk with its bright colors and wide views. Afterward you explore your gallery of 30 to 100 photos, choose your favorites and select more whenever you want them, paying for those later. If you buy more photos, a free drone video with stunning footage is added to your visit.
