We are looking to make the trip by car from Sosua to La Romana in 2 weeks and we were looking for recommendations on the best and fastest route. Would the new Samana/Santo Domingo Highway be a good choice? Thanks!
The best way to go by far would be to travel east past Nagua and then take the Samana/Santo Domingo Highway south then go east to La Romana. Will save you lots of time and aggravation of driving through Santiago and the Capital.
about an hour and a half to 2 hours to Nagua depending on how you drive and an hour to an hour and a half to the capital. It lets you out right near las americas airport east of Santo Domingo.
