Holidays

[Manchester la la la la]

going to DR in November staying Bravaro beach,looks very nice and all that but was unsure of getting out and about to bars and shopping etc,i asume its safe with limited hassel if at all any?

We only really left our hotel complex to go on trips but from memory there didn't seem alot in the way of bars or shopping outside the resorts. I know there is a mall you can visit but we didn't go. I'm sure if you look you'll find a bar or two that you can visit though

As for hassle, we didn't get any. The locals are all lovely and friendly. You'll have a great time. :)

thanks mate,was also wondering about money, did you take dollars USA, or just a card and use the cash machine, i dont think you can buy the DR Peso in the uk?

Me and the wife want to do a few days somewhere next year (end of March) where the days can be pretty busy with things to do if anybody has any suggestions?

We know the obvious New York etc. but budget has taken that out of reach for now.

We're looking at Rome as a potential but know there's plenty other places that ignorantly I won't have thought about.

Rome’s a good base for travelling to Naples, Pompeii and Sorrento. Can’t recommend Pompeii enough, mind blowing how intact the place is. The Trastevere (workings quarter I think it translates to) is great in the evening and not rip off prices last time I went.
