I am looking to go in early 2013 and was wondering if anyone had any tips or experience there? I have already read the Santiago portion of the ISG board. I thought I might get some Toronto specific travel tips posting here.

Thanks, as always!

Yes I have been there... is very large and busy city so lots of action available. No English is spoken at all so if you not speak Spanish you have hard time. There will be numerous ladies and brothels, independents, agencies (that cover every city in DR from central location) very reasonable rates, easily negotiable down to $30 - $40 US for full service (non-agency). Very lovey ladies but nothing meant for tourist (except perhaps from agency at much higher cost). Due to difference in society any taxi driver would be most helpful in helping you find what you looking for. STI/STD rate is very high and some have no respect for condom, you might want to research that first and then make your own decisions on the numbers.

Thanks for the tips. How did you fly? I am really hoping for a good flight tip as I hate going through all the US security when I am not even leaving the airport. I also want to avoid NYC at all cost!

I actually came (this trip, still here) through Newark Liberty International (EWR) and have many times (15 minutes from downtown Manhattan and you can see the Manhattan skyline from there). Yes, if you are changing planes in the US you do have to officially enter the US (because you could just not get on your connecting flight and then you are "at large" in the US but if you are leaving from a major airport in Canada they usually have US border guards there (in Canada) so you will actually clear US customs and immigration BEFORE you leave Canada (very little hassle). If you are flying one airline from Canada to the República Dominicana (like United Airlines) then they can check your luggage right through to your final República Dominicana destination. There are several agencies (never used them so can’t recommend) but they dispatch ladies in every major city thought out the entire country. Of course this is a much more expensive service but they can have a lady at your hotel no matter where you are in 20 or 30 minutes, 24 hours a day. Of course expensive is a relative term, if you look at the prices on their web sites it is still crazy low compared to Canada but price wise you can do so much better on your own if you hablan español. It has been said that it is more challenging to find I pineapple here (and yes, they grow them and have them everywhere) and it is really true.

One thing I forgot to mention because you did not indicate if you can hablan español is that if you don’t Puerto Plata (where I am) and Sousa are only about 1 hour cheap bus ride from Santiago, so you might want to check out the http://themantour.net/ which only covers Puerto Plata and Sousa (with English speaking guides) and although I haven’t taken the tour myself (but heard good things about it), they do keep you safe and make sure you not pay touristy rates and find anything you looking for. Please do however keep in mind that the ladies here do offer BBFS even those that say they don’t (either because you offer very little extra money or they just run out of condoms, sad but true that money talks so loudly here), so I do stay away from that kind of contact with the indigenous population :)

In fact some agencies openly advertise BBFS and the more reputable ones require (and will even arrange testing for you a few days before you visit ladies) but we all know HIV can take 4 or 5 months after infection to test positive and sometimes the test results are not 100% accurate. I am sure some think I am over cautious but I would be doing you a disservice if I did not tell you the real truth about the place.

Really? Santiago? I thought there were just 3 locations - Casablanca, Passions and 1 more. I did enjoy my time there - more than Puerto Plata. Which site did you visit to learn about the other brothels and agencies?

For sure… read this, it is very true: http://dr1.com/articles/prostitution.shtml

An excerpt:

Well, the common misconception is that the majority of Dominican prostitutes works in tourist areas and caters to tourists, when in fact this is not the case. A percentage does but the majority of Dominican prostitutes’ clients are Dominican men. The men visit brothels and massage parlors that litter the country and are filled with Dominican women. Sometimes, like immediately before Christmas, you will find more girls than normal working in these establishments in an effort to earn some quick money for the holidays. They will then go back to their normal lives.​

The population of Santiago is very large (way more than Puerto Plata, Sousa and Punta Cana and all the touristy areas combined, in fact I think it is now just under two million people (could look it up). So if you take the population of all the touristy areas and add them all together you not even come close to the number of people in Santiago de los Caballeros and therefore you not even come close to the number of working ladies there (many more in Santiago than in all touristy areas combined).
Which site did you visit to learn about the other brothels and agencies?
Internet sites? Please take no offense (as none intended) but you have not spent enough time here to really understand this country. Most people live in poverty and can’t even afford the most humble computer. A “typical” home is less than the size of a 1 car garage in Canada and not as well built. Electricity and running water or even city life is a luxury most people do not have.

Because prostitution is completely legal, accepted, open and totally different from North America attitudes they have no need to hide behind anonymity of Internet to conduct business. Anything you find on Internet has little to do with what really goes on here, just some agency who has a large list of ladies anywhere and everywhere and willing to dispatch them (remotely, from afar) to see you at 4, 5 or maybe even 10 times the price that the lady actually gets to keep for herself. They are what are known as “beeper chicas” (but all have BlackBerrys these days) and because the only law that has anything to do with prostitution here is someone else (other than the lady providing service) cannot benefit most of these agencies operate and dispatch from another country entirely.

Of course the downside is that even someone with modest income in Canada can be a big shot here with lots of influence and control over anything and everything and so when you come here you have act very responsible as anything and everything is available at very low price.

I spend a lot of time here and if you come here again I could show you the real country. Find you lady that is on a scale of 1 – 10 a 12 and charge $40 for 12 hour appointment offering BBFS or anything else you can imagine. Of course if you ask me to do this, I going to ask you if you are suicidal :)
