Hi:
Rick, I live in LT. You have a couple of options. If your flight arrives during the day I would definitely rent a vehicle and drive. The new section of highway just opened this week and from SDQ to Las Terrenas in is about 1hr 45min. You are on beautiful roads all the way. There is a bus, called Las Terrenas Transporte from Santo Domingo they have buses direct to LT at 8:30,9:30,11AM,1;40 and 3PM. There number is 809-687-1470. When you get out of the airport you take a cab, which will cost you about $30usd and tell him you want to get the bus to Las Terrenas. There is a small bus stop just before the new highway to the Samana peninsula. The bus will pick you up there. Just remember that the bus is coming from Santo Domingo and will probably take about 20-30 minutes to get to your stop. The price is very reasonable at about $12.00us per person. The bus will drop you off in the tourist sector of Las Terrenas across from Paseo Plaza. If you decide to drive and want directions send me a private message. Good luck. You will love Las Terrenas.
