Car Rental in Santo Domingo

Convertible rental in Santo Domingo

The most widespread cabriolet models offered for rent in Dominikana are: Renault Megane Cabriolet, Chrysler Sebring Convertible, Ford Mustang Convertible and VW Eos Convertible.

At the booking time, please check the rental conditions carefully. Quite often, rental offices in Santo Domingo require two credit cards to guarantee issuance of a cabrio or a roadster.

We recommend ordering additional no-excess insurance that covers your risk (franchise), since the franchise amount for cabriolets in Dominikana is quite high.

Make sure to inspect the rental invoice issued at the office in Santo Domingo and compare it with the information indicated in your voucher. Sometimes, rental officers make 'unintentional' mistakes in rental invoices.

In parking garage, examine the vehicle for defects and scratches carefully. If you find any of them, check whether they have been specified in your rental document.

When parking a cabriolet in Santo Domingo, it is recommended to unfold the roof and close windows in order to prevent theft or robbery.

Driving Advices for Dominikana – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
According to local regulations, the driver is not required to carry the original driving license and other car documents. In case of a police check, it is enough to show copies of the documents, they will be considered legitimate.
You should stop your vehicle only if that is requested by a police officer or an AMET service officer (in the Dominican Republic there is a special service known as AMET that monitors compliance with the traffic regulations). It is very simple to distinguish an AMET officer as they wear green uniform.
Please do not forget that AMET officers have no right to collect fines on the spot. They can only give you a fine bill. Use that bill to make the payment in every bank branch.

Enjoying sights of Santo Domingo in cabriolet
A beautiful place of interest in Dominica’s capital is the monument built in honor of America’s discoverer – Faro A Colon. It was built in 1986 according to Joseph Lee Gleeve’s project, who designed it back in 1931 – but then his plans were not to be implemented. The monument was unveiled in 1992, coinciding with the 500th anniversary of Columbus’ discovery of America. The light rays on the monumental structure form a cruciform shape, but they are so powerful that they are visible from Puerto Rico. Inside is situated a museum with a collection of jewelry and objects related to the discovery of the New World.

A visit to the ChocoMuseo Cultural Center is a must on the Santo Domingo sightseeing tour – as the name suggests, visitors will have a lively journey into the world of chocolate and, of course, no excursion is complete without tasting local sweets. Other “gastronomic” museums include Museo del Ron, where you can learn about Dominican Republic’s rum production. Those who want to learn more about the history of the country should visit the Museo Memorial de la Resistencia, while those interested in zoology and biology should explore the collection of the cultural center Museo Nacional de Historia Natural. The theaters of the Teatro Nacional and the Centro Cultural de Espana are ideal for a cultural experience with beautiful theater productions.
