I agree Chirimoya, to really appreciate a good leisurely day trip and some good food one would have to think about 2 or 3 destinations top...otherwise you will be cramming too much into one day....i like your suggestions for La Ruta del Cafe. I personally like driving and the drive to Bayahibe is long but very scenic and beautiful...but all that just to sit and have lunch? LOL
I would suggest the national park Haitises but one can spend a WHOLE day there!
