What to book before you leave

1) Airport transfer (skip the taxi queue at PUJ — pre-booked vans wait at arrivals). 2) Day-1 sunset catamaran or beach buggy to lock in the best operators before resort concierges upsell tours at 30–50 % markup. 3) Saona Island for day 3 or 4 — small-group catamarans sell out 24 h ahead in peak season.

Punta Cana from Frankfurt vs all-inclusive packages

If your travel agent quotes a hotel + flight package from Frankfurt, compare against booking flight separately and the hotel through Hotels.com or directly. Packages often look cheap but lock you into mid-tier resorts. A flight + room-only 5-star + 2–3 booked excursions usually beats package pricing for couples.
