    Itinerary

    If you are looking for a unique experience in the Dominican Republic, Punta Cana offers you the opportunity to immerse yourself in the lush rainforest and explore the natural wealth of the region while enjoying strong emotions and unforgettable moments. Get ready for a true adventure full of fun and discovery! In 1992, Pope John Paul II visited the Basilica of Our Lady of Altagrace in Higüey, a sacred site and the spiritual center of the Dominican Republic. Opened in 1971, this Basilica is an example of impressive modern architecture, with its large 45-meter dome and beautiful stained glass windows that fill the interior with light and color. During his visit, the Pope celebrated a mass, reaffirming the devotion to the Virgin of Altagrace. The Basilica remains a pilgrimage site and a key religious tourist destination, symbolizing the faith and identity of the Dominican people. The papal visit left an indelible mark on the history of the country.
