Helps To Narrow The Choices Down
The top 10 book summarizes the major sections of the country in such a way that you can get a feel for each area. I've read other books on the Dominican Republic from cover to cover and ended up with too much information.

If you are looking for a colonial city, mountains, out of the way places, an all inclusive resort atmosphere or surfing areas then you can locate them here. If you know the type of vacation area you enjoy, this can be quite helpful to avoid centering your lodging base in the wrong section of the country.

The book also has the top 10 highlights for interests in history, museums, Indian sites, children activites, sports, nature, beaches, quiet beaches, views, religion, festivals, local flavor, shopping, restaurants, bars, nightlife, food, plants and animals.

For 6 areas of the country it additionally describes the top 10 cities plus includes two other top 10 lists that reflect the vicinities areas of interest.

In the street smart section you'll want to review the summarized explanations and tips for planning your trip, arriving, getting around, driving, information resources, money and communications, security and health, things to avoid, budget tips, eating and drinking, special needs, tours, lodging tips and 5 different lists for hotel types.

If you are trying to decide what country to visit, this book can give you the highlights in a concise fashion and save you a lot of time. The book can also assist you in confirming your decision to visit the Dominican Republic or prevent you from making a mistake. Once you do decide to travel here, you can leave this book at home. Instead, you may want to bring along along another book that includes larger city maps, schedules, price levels and other details.

There is a surprising amount of information and colorful pictures in a such a small book. If you want to find out as much as you can about the country, you should definitely get a second book that covers more information in depth. However, don't overlook it as a valuable resource no matter what you do. .
