Hello all---
I am flying into Santiago with my girlfriend on the Jet Blue flight on Saturday, June 4th and am heading to Las Galeras. A taxi looks the quickest but at ~$150 for the taxi, a bus would be nicer, and I would appreciate anyone who could give me some leads.
I saw the post on 3-14-2005 "Closest Airport to Samana" which mentioned taking a bus from Santiago to Sanchez (leaving at 7, 8, 13, 14) and then taking a bus from Sanchez to Samana.
This looks like a potentially good option, but the post didn't say which bus company ran this route, where to catch the bus, or how long it would take. I have e-mailed Caribe twice in Spanish with no luck. I would appreciate anyone who has more info about this option or any tenable weekend bus from Santiago to somewhere near to Las Galeras where I could catch a cheaper taxi.
Thanks!
