Why Visit the Dominican Republic with Goco Goes?

Vacation tropical

If you had a choice between the traditional Resort vacation OR the Goco Goes Vacation, Which would you prefer:

Traditional Vacation

Spend $$$ on a resort owned by the wealthiest companies, the money exits the country. The general vicinity is filled with tourists. Everyone is herded off to the same few tourist trap locations. Everything feels transactional. The only time you meet locals is in a servant role (Waiter, Taxi-driver, Bartender, Cleaning person).

OR

Goco Goes Vacation

The hotel you stay at is owned by a local family, the money directly supports their lives and circulates within the local economy. Because of our local knowledge and guided support, you can confidently experience real genuine moments with locals and in spaces where tourists never go without having to worry about having to fully orientate yourself.

You get to visit the most beautiful hidden gems on the island where you will notice the local tourist enjoying themselves. This gives you a more in-depth perspective of the lived experiences of the people who call the island home. A chance to breathe and relax in a new environment.

Dominican Republic Tour

Goco Goes is about connection

We get to visit local community projects working on amazing things around music, cuisine, and eco-tourism.  

If you choose the second option, then congratulations, Goco Goes is for you. 

We are a new family-operated company that runs off more than 12 years of off-the-beaten-path travel experience.

We are beginning our services particularly within the Dominican Republic. Our Co-Founder, Goco has lived deep within the Dominican countryside, developing lifelong relationships with communities and people.

His work within the country is bonafide and his identity has been shaped by the vibrant culture of the Island of Quisquya. 

Goco noticed that the vast majority of tourists who visit never actually get the chance to experience the real side of the island. Most visit Punta Cana, a newly established town built exclusively for foreigners. 

In fact, most Dominicans who work there commute from a town 30 mins away. He compares the sterile nature of Punta Cana to a Stripmall in suburban America.

You can be in any city in the United States and have the exact same experience. 

Goco Goes seeks to change the way foreigners participate in the places we visit. We seek to have the most exciting experience possible while sharing our spending income with the local economy.

Sustainable Community-Based Tourism.
