JW-only trips: Dominican Republic (December & March)
Sister Jessica Vides (Brisas Oriental Congregation in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic) says, “Hi everyone, my name is Jessica Vides — I’m originally from Alexandria, Virginia, USA (and have used Tomcast's services many times over the years).
My husband and I have been serving in the Dominican Republic for about 11 years. During that time, we've come to love exploring the country beyond the typical resort experience. What started as helping friends plan trips has grown into hosting small group experiences for brothers and sisters who want to enjoy the Dominican Republic without the stress of planning everything themselves.
We are currently offering two hosted trips:
• December 4–10, 2026
• March 5–11, 2027 (includes a whale-watching excursion in Samaná Bay)
Both trips include:
• Private villa accommodations steps from the beach (each room has an ensuite and AC)
• Food and drinks (including authentic Dominican Cuisine)
• Airport transportation from Santo Domingo Airport
• We will be on-site hosts from arrival to departure
• Included group excursion to to an island
• Small group atmosphere (maximum 10 guests)
• Free time to relax and explore on your own
Optional Santo Domingo Add-On
Extend your trip with a 3-day visit to Santo Domingo, including:
• Tour Bethel and the new museum
• Swim in the caves at a local spot
• Historic city sites and local highlights
This trip may be a good fit if you:
• Enjoy traveling but don't want to coordinate all the details yourself
• Want to experience more of the Dominican Republic than a typical resort vacation
• Like the idea of a comfortable, well-organized small group trip
• Enjoy meeting and traveling with other brothers and sisters
Book solo, bring a partner or spouse, or book a couple of rooms for a small group of friends.
My husband and I will be your hosts throughout the trip, and we've also partnered with Sharese from Gathers Travel Agency to help coordinate the experience.
