Up, up and away!
A new tour in Punta Cana attracts the more adventurous, a hot air balloon trip, a quiet overfly of the Bavaro and Punta Cana area to see the beautiful beaches and landscapes from above. This hot air balloon service in Punta Cana has been offered by the Dominican Balloons company (Domball) for several months now and the initiative has strong support from the Dominican Ministry of Tourism.
So far, Russian tourists have accounted for up to 90% of passengers who have purchased these flights, thus the Ministry of Tourism has announced that it will participate in the upcoming International Tourism Fair to be held in Russia to promote the hot air balloon experience and attract more Russian tourists.
