Monte Cristi, Dominican Republic
A dusty, little-visited corner of the northwest coast where Dominican history was actually written, Marti and Maximo Gomez signed the manifesto launching Cuba's war of independence here in 1895, and the house still stands. El Morro, the flat-topped headland outside town, is a national park thick with frigatebirds, herons and shorebirds above centuries-old salt flats still worked by hand. The mango harvest and a plate of goat stewed in bitter-orange sauce round out a call that trades resort polish for the real, unvarnished country.
Testimonials
The crew was fabulous, we were treated like kings & queens, very personal, like no other experience we've ever had. See you next year and every year thereafter. Mr & Mrs AmbroseTexas
We've had a lovely time. My husband's request for his 70th birthday was to be on SeaDream in the Caribbean, and we've really enjoyed it. SeaDream is by far, the best cruise line in the Caribbean. Catherine B.Great Britain
