Was in DR just last week! Travel to and from was seamless. Thank you for this video!
Hope you enjoyed it!
Weird tip for Canadians living in the USA ... even though you choose the correct options, at the very end it may show the wrong citizenship... I filled it out at home, waited in line at customs for 30 minutes just to be told it said USA which didn't match my Canadian passport. I had to go to their computer and do it again, same end result, but the 3rd time it finally had the correct info for the final results.
When I did it before leaving DR, same thing, I had to go through the process a couple times before it was correct at the very end. Strange, but that's when I knew it definitely wasn't me 😂
I love your videos. My mom is Dominican so I travel every year there i love DR. I mostly go to jarabacoa but i do go to Sosua beach ⛱️.
Thank you so much Juan!
@@WhiskeynRum Your very Welcome
Thank you Danny for the info. I just shared this video with all my friends and family all over the world.
Awesome, thank you!
Great info Danny! Thanks for sharing! 🥃
Hey Jeff, we owe each other a drink!
Thanks Danny for the update. I will see you soon. Definitely I will stop by Malibu for a chat and have a drink with you and all Malibu's family. Always great contents!
See ya soon!
That's exactly the info I needed, much appreciated.
You got it 👍
Thank you Dan u are the man im going to be in sosua in May but u are going be in Asia .. hopefully I can meet u in person next time I go to sosua
I "should" be back by mid May. Stop by Malibu's, Landa and the girls will have a good grasp on my travel schedule.
Videos like this help so much! Thank you, my fellow globe trotter! 🌍
Thank you for watching 👍
First and foremost, I ALWAYS tip the bachata band guys when I'm coming into the airport.
That's the spirit!!!
Same here! That's when my vacation officially begins!
We fly in tomorrow! Thanks!
Very cool, safe travels!!!
One comment on the E-Ticket application -- while the website seems to work perfectly on an iPhone, it is total garbage on Android. Multiple members of our group verified this -- it is practically impossible to fill this thing out on every Android phone we tried, but we had no issues on any iPhone. If you have an Android phone, I suggest you use a PC to fill the thing out -- it works perfectly on a PC as well. This was as of 3/19/22
Great comment, thank you 🙏🏻
I hear that the beach area where you bar has been sold and a condo will b put there
Watch our last video
One correction about e-ticket: you don't need to have the return e-ticket done in DR. I did both Entrada and Solida at the same time about a month before my trip. No issues.
I am sorry, yes you do need the e-ticket for the return flight. They will not hand you a boarding pass without seeing that QR code.
Danny, when are you leaving to Asia? I plan to visit you guys during the Easter week. I hope to see you there. Let me know, please 🙏🏿.
Hey buddy, I’m flying out on April 9th. Landa will be running the bar while I’m gone. Please stop by and beat her at shut the box! She’s been mopping us all up lately and we need fresh dice to come in and take her down a notch 🤣
@@WhiskeynRum too bad for me, I will not be seeing you. Good luck in advance and have a safe trip.
thanks for the info, if you can please mention date in video so viewers know how recent and up to date your info is.
It was filmed April 24th
Great video very informative. I am desperate to know where is that beach location at the end of your video? That place needs to be in my life. 😎 I will be there in a month and I'm making plans from now. Thank you
That is Bacardi island off the coast of Samana. That's what they tell the tourists, but its real name is Cayo Levantado. They were remodeling a big resort on the island when we visited, I think it is scheduled to reopen this summer. Bahia Principe - a quick google search should bring it up 👍
Thank you so much! Me and my Buddies will be staying in Casa Linda for a week and we usually rent a Car to get around and make the most of time available. Rio San Juan day trip is easily doable but I'm thinking destination Semana could be a different ball game! 🤔
You forgot to tip the band!
Trust me, they get 1k every time I walk past. They are my favorite part of coming home.
You may want to notify your viewers that POP will close in May for ten days. May 9 - 20. You may notice that you cannot book travel in or out of POP during this period.
will do - also expect that May 20th date to slip back a few more days..
Sorry I am ignorant! Can you explain what POP stands for??? Thanks
I am travelling to DR in middle of May
@@kissmequick4901 Sorry about the confusion. POP is the three letter code for Puerto Plata airport.
@@rocc5169 Thanks for clarification. Flights from London only go to Santo Domingo & Puntacana. Travel agents say other Airports are not open!!! I am now cofused
I an flying to Santo Domingo anyway
What about a one way ticket
You need to book a return flight and then cancel it when you arrive
We had No WI-FI connection when we landed. Is there a portable WI-FI device we can purchase b/4 arriving in DR? Thx!
Yes there is ypu have to go to claro store and get a prepaid wifi Sim card or a device not sure how much but they have
Put an international plan on your mobile device. You can use your phone while moving through the airport and while getting yourself settled. Then hit up a Claro or Altice store and get local sim. Data is cheap here compared to North America. Once it's working cancel the international plan you were using.
Well done, Cheers
Thank you 🙏🏼
good stuff.
Thanks!
GREAT VIDEO 👍🏽👍🏽 CAN YOU RECOMMEND A GOOD REASONABLE ELECTRICIAN
Ideomatic Solutions 829-915-0035 - these guys are fantastic!
Thanks danny. You're content has profound value.
Are debit cards ir credit cards a thing in DR for taxis, restaurants etc or is it more strictly cash?
Mostly cash, some restaurants will take a card but it can be a bit dicey. That said, the bank atms work well, just notify your home bank that you are traveling.
@@WhiskeynRum Danny how soon should you do the electronic Immigration. I ask because I did it one time 3 days before and when I arrived at the Immigration desk they had no record of it in their system; although I had the photo of my QR code and application number on my phone. The officer told me I should have did it the night before. What time frame do you normally do yours since you fly in and out all the time? Thanks.
@@LOBOS-99 I always do mines within 24 hours...either when you are going to get your covid test or when you check in online to your flight.
@@LOBOS-99 I complete min 72 hours before and have never had any issues. 24 hours before is not a bad idea either.
No more pre departure negative covid test to enter Canada as of today (April 1).
Really? That's fantastic - now if the US would do the same
@@WhiskeynRum very good news for us Canadians who love to travel. Appreciate your videos. Very informative!
Hi Danny how soon do I need to fill out the form if I'm traveling in 4 days?
Hi Danny, do still need COVID test to coming in to the US? POP airport provide such test? Thanks!
Yes and it is ridiculous. COVID testing at POP is fast and easy. 1500 pesos and in/out results in hand 20 minutes 👍👍
Another One! 👍🏾 Can you explain how to get Wi-Fi once you exit the airport. We had a difficult time not having Wi-Fi. Is a portable WI-FI needed if so where can we purchase? Thx!
most phone carriers have a international plan (if not free) for using your phone or data.
If not & you really need internet while out & about outside from your hotel, you can purchase a prepaid sim or hotspot from Claro or Altice.
If you go to an official store, they will take a photo copy of your passport to setup an account that you can re-up every time you visit the country.
Or you can go to a local phone shop & set it up that way...maybe only a one time use though.
(*Note most places you go have wifi including your hotel...just ask nicely while you order your beer)
Correct, stop at any of the local cell phone shops and pick up a sim. 20 bucks and you’ll have enough data for a few weeks
are they closing sosua beach too build resort??? I guess they want too bring more money in
Who they going to get to drive that first bulldozer? The beach bars aren’t going anywhere.
Great video! Where is that location at 6:15?
Cayó Levantado - Samana
@@WhiskeynRum thank you!
I’m looking to live in DR N COMING MAY 2 am staying for 3 weeks looking to rent a small apt close to the beach n walking to markets any suggestions
Best thing is to rent a hotel or condo for a week and then go looking for apartments
I am traveling middle of May from London. Can I fill in my E-ticket form now??? N prepare myself?
Can you plz provide the right Website to fill in form plz. Bless you for your important information. Gts from London
I think you can only do it three days in advance but let me check on that
@@WhiskeynRum ok. Sure...wait for your findings! Bless
How much the official taxi price from airport to Sosua ?
Good info thanks . Question do you need a negative covid test to return to the states?
yes
Yes 😡
What are some of your favorite DR rum?
Barcelo Imperial and good ole Brugal Anejo 🍹
@@WhiskeynRum Haven’t tried Barcelo but damn do I miss Brugal. Can’t find in the states…
Is it easy to do the e-ticket on your android tablet vs laptop computer?
its best on your phone so you can save the pdf or QR code & easily show it when asked. Tablet is ok too...
Rather not have to pull your laptop out at the airport to search for the file.
Agree best to complete on your phone so you can screenshot your QR code
See my comment above -- the app does NOT work properly on Android although it works perfectly on an iPhone. If you only have an Android phone, I would suggest doing it on a PC, then save the QR code and email it (or whatever) to your Android phone.
@@DirectionlessStudent I have an android phone. Worked for me on my last 3 trips to RD. I do agree that printing the QR code is another good option.
@@CABNoLimit Probably an Android version issue then? All I know is we tried it on 3 different Android phones and it was all wonky on every one of them. The auto-fill was screwing up the name fields, the birth date could only be entered using the calendar (I would have had to scroll back to 1961 one month at a time LOL), etc. I would advise trying it at home before leaving for the airport for anyone with an Android phone.
