Agency or on my own?
Despite how extremely easy it’s to organize a trip to Punta Cana, most tourists decide to hire a travel agency. One of the advantages of hiring your trip to Punta Cana through an agency is that they provide you with information that perhaps by going on your own you wouldn’t have access or could hardly find it.
It is important to emphasize that when hiring a trip by agency, it does not include excursions, you have to book them there, in the hotels or online before traveling.
Choosing a travel agency has two main advantages, the convenience of having your trip organized, so you don’t have to worry about all details and in certain cases travel agencies may offer special cheaper prices due to the volume of hiring.
Choosing to travel with an agency or on your own is everyone's decision, but it is important that you know the aspects in which you need to pay attention when planning your trip to this paradisiacal island.
How to choose flight and hotel?
First, look for the flight on your own, as well as the selection of two or three hotels and take note of the prices, this to give you an idea of the prices if you decide to make the trip on your own.
Taking these prices into consideration, you can contact different travel agencies and ask about the packages they offer and the prices taking into account the hotels you have already selected.
There is a wide variety of hotels but with a lot of difference in quality, remember that the Dominican Republic is a very cheap destination in which going from a standard quality to an absolutely VIP one means very little difference in price.
Hotels
In Punta Cana there are all kinds of all-inclusive hotels, adults-only hotels, hotels to go with children, with better beaches, with more or less swimming pools, with water parks, with nightclubs, even hotels with casino and theaters.
This is also a decision that you must make considering the activities you and your guest like to do or the plan in which you want to travel.

For those who like to explore, there are several activities and excursions that can be done, such as visiting the city of Santo Domingo with its colonial buildings or extreme activities such as diving.
Do you need a Visa?
For most countries it is not necessary to apply for any type of visa. It is only necessary to complete two forms that are given to you on the plane during the journey to the country.
They will ask you for information about your trip, with data such as how many days you are going to be and where you are going to stay. There are two forms, since one is delivered when arriving in the country and passing customs control and the other is to be delivered before leaving the Dominican Republic.
