Customer Reviews
Fabulous fun in historic Santo Domingo!
2023-08-17
We did the 4D experience during a recent visit to Santo Domingo’s Zona Colonial — and we loved it! We were not sure what to expect, but it turned out to be great fun and thoroughly enjoyable. An immersive experience with great audio, visual and other special effects (the seats move during the rumble of the battle!), the film at the center of the experience is also an interesting retelling of Sir Francis Drake’s 1586 attack on Santo Domingo. And no sooner was that film done when we were plunged into a second film that had us on a virtual roller coaster ride on the Great Wall of China that was pure fun!
Neat experience!

This was a very enjoyable experience for my wife and I! Very immersive with the audio and visual effects. We truly enjoyed it and it makes the history of Santo Domingo that much more richer!
