The first route was created in Las Galeras, Saman\u00e1 in 2022 and shall be duplicated in other parts of the country where economic development endangers the local identity and cultural heritage<\/strong>. So if you ask what to do in Las Galeras, this is another option among many in the Saman\u00e1 peninsula.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This project shall benefit and help locals maintaining their former family house for posterity as well as they get to live in more modern houses.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n La Ruta de las Casas T\u00edpicas<\/strong> consists of a route of about 28 miles (45 kilometers) starting at the \u00ab\u00a0last typical house\u00a0\u00bb on the main street of Las Galeras that will take you to the famous and beautiful Playa Rinc\u00f3n<\/strong> where you will probably take a pause for a delicious local lunch<\/strong> and enjoy fresh \u00ab\u00a0El Ca\u00f1o fr\u00edo<\/strong>\u00a0\u00bb river before swimming in the beautiful turquoise waters<\/strong> of the eastern side of this 3 miles long beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The tour can be done in your own private vehicle, or in a small group, aboard an authentic Galerense \u00ab\u00a0guagua\u00a0\u00bb (traditional pick-up public transportation).<\/p>\n\n\n\n La Ruta de las Casas T\u00edpicas<\/strong><\/strong> has about 50 participating houses visible from the street (or a few steps from the street). Most houses are simple family houses<\/strong>. Some are offering snacks and drinks, local fruits and vegetables local souvenirs or handcrafted products, food or small grocery. This will be a good opportunity to find out about the smile and kindness of the Dominicans<\/strong>. You can even enjoy a unique experience of sleeping and living with a local<\/strong> family<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Identify the houses along the Route by their wooden signs made by local artisans.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Find out more about La Ruta de las Casas T\u00edpicas<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Contact us through WhatsApp to get our interactive map of La Ruta de las Casas T\u00edpicas<\/strong><\/a>.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also purchase a paper version<\/strong> that you can keep as a souvenir at the \u00ab\u00a0House #1\u00a0\u00bb of the Route and\/or download a digital copy here<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The whole tour takes about 1\/2 day<\/strong> (3 to 4 hours including a few stops for photos or buying snacks or souvenirs), but we recommend the complete day tour, which will give you about 3 hours to fully enjoy Playa Rinc\u00f3n<\/strong>. There, you will be able to have a delicious typical lunch, swim in the fresh waters of \u00ab\u00a0Cano Fr\u00edo\u00a0\u00bb river, and enjoy the quiet turquoise waters of the eastern part of the beach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can do the tour in your private vehicle, or aboard an authentic local bus<\/strong> with a local guide who will provide with lots of information about the history of Las Galeras and its typical houses. A beautiful journey where you fully enjoy the scenery without having to focus on the road!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Would you like to support this project<\/strong> or get further information ?
