Hidden Beach Tour Itinerary

Welcome!

Goco Goes is dedicated to creating dynamic and immersive travel experiences that are affordable to anyone!

This is an itinerary for our member-exclusive Hidden Beach Tour which will give you exclusive access to experience several pristine beaches most tourists visiting the island will never see due to their isolation and generally being unknown to mainstream tourism.

Our goal is to help travelers better understand the local host cultures and the natural living environments we interact with. To enjoy life abroad while also supporting the local economy as much as possible to prevent harm via supporting the tourism gentrification pipelines.

We do this by doing our best to only use locally owned and operating services and accommodations.

In turn, this also gives our guests incredibly authentic vibes. Because this type of travel can also be burdensome due to cultural and linguistic differences, our Host guides are there to help us bridge those gaps. We ask that you respect our host guides and their humanity and also enjoy your trip! Positive vibes and open-mindedness go so far in improving your general experience.

Enjoy!

This trip takes place in the Dominican Republic

We may visit 3 distinct regions including Santo Domingo, Monte Plata, and Samaná
