Ramblers Worldwide Holidays – the experts in guided walking adventures across theglobe – is offering a new holiday to Hispaniola– which combines Haiti and the Dominican Republic - a land which was first sighted by Columbus in 1492 and smacks of piratical intrigue and the Spanish Main.  Haiti experienced the World's only successful slave rebellion which resulted in the setting up of the World's first independent Afro-Caribbean republic. 

The adventure begins in Punta Cana, where one is introduced to beautiful coastlines and cenotes – natural wells – which dot the landscape and make for perfect swimming holes.  Next is Santo Domingo, the capital which offers a feast of colonial architecture and stunning beaches and onto Barahona with its magnificent coast.

Next port of call on this divided island, crossing the border from the Dominican Republic to French speaking Haiti, with a mysterious and magical personality of its own.  Haitians have a saying 'dèyè mon gen mon' – 'beyond the mountains there are more mountains'.  Highlights in Haiti include the bustling capital, Port au Prince; the quieter hills of Petionville; the superb beach at Cote des Arcadins and the Citadelle on a hill above Milot – reckoned to be one of the Caribbean's most inspiring examples of historical architecture. 

Overnight summary – Punta Cana (1); Santo Domingo (2); Barahona (1); Port au Prince (3); Cote des Arcadins (2); Cap Haitian (2); Jarabacoa (3); return flight (1)

Price from £3,199 per person for 16 days includes return flights, transfers, half board accommodation and the services of a dedicated tour leader.  Departures from 1 March 2016.
