Do you like rum? Our next stop will be a distillery to learn about the rum production process.

We'll continue our shopping tour at a colonial market to discover traditional handmade goods such as colourful paintings, wooden sculptures, musical instruments, and more. There will be time for visiting souvenir shops and art galleries to purchase gifts.

Then, we'll visit a Tobacco Factory to learn how this famous product is made and its significance in the Dominican Republic. Here, you can find some of the best cigars in the world.

We will conclude the morning by exploring the famous Dominican cocoa at a local store before returning to the initial meeting point to finish this activity.
