About Dominican Republic

Why visit the Dominican Republic?

Most packages to the Dominican Republic combine a return flight from Canada, an all-inclusive resort and a shared airport transfer. The resort rate usually covers meals, drinks and a range of activities, though the details vary by resort, so read the inclusions on the travel site.

Because many travel sites sell the same resorts, the total price for identical dates is not always the same. TripRadr checks the same resort, dates and departure airport across the sites we compare.
