The motoconchoprices depend on distance and if its day or night. On daytime the locals pay for short distances 25-30 Pesos, if as a gringo you give them 50 there's no hassle. I don't know after which distance the price doubles, but with 50 you can get to anywhere in the Center. After midnight the prices may double, depends on the driver.

First of all where are you staying that is in the center of town? There are many restaurant choices. Pizza Azzul has a very good menu and reasonable prices. It is on the beach across from Peseo Plaza. There are a couple of Dominican restaurants in the center of town that have good food at very good prices. There are a number of restaurants in the Fisherman's village of bars and restaurants at the beginning of the beach road to Playa Ballenas. These are priced mid-range to expensive. It really depends on what you are willing to eat every night. Where are you flying into? If you are coming from Canada and flying into El Catey AZS the taxi fare from the airport in around $70usd. Yes, expensive. You might to be a share a ride and split the cost. Do you have any language skills. Don't know what dishes might has coriander/cilantro. I never noticed this as being overlly used. Good luck and good travels.

Try the local restaurants serving seafood etc behind the cemetery on the beach right in the centre of town. Many visitors never find this place.

Transporte Las Terrenas goes directly to LT. You can't get the bus at the airport but you can pick it up at the satellite bus station at the entrance to the SD/Samana Highway. You will need to take a taxi from the airport to this station. I believe the last bus leaves the city around 3PM. It's about a half hour to get out to where you will meet the bus. Good luck and good travels.

LT buses fill up early at SD terminus so be early there and never rely on finding a seat en route. The 3pm bus is a small one that goes through Samana over the hills to LT and stops alot and is usually full early
