Punta Cana Airport (PUJ) Taxi Rates

[MikeFisher]

arrica, like the punta cana airport has no hotel/rooms, you would need to spend the night somewhere, so i would recommend to spend the night in santo domingo and travel comfortable on daylight next morning, sun is down early on the island.
when you have to arrive/flight at punta cana international?

Hi Mike,

11 am. I have no problem arriving late into PC town and get to the airport next morning -unless there are early bus departures?

you should leave santo domingo not later than 5PM to make sure you still get a bus from higuey to Punta Cana, but make sure you know where to spend the night in punta cana, if you drive from higuey to the route for the punta cana airport you will not be in the area named punta cana-bavaro where the hotels are, that's a second route and around 30 minutes drive from the airport. sunset is early, you will arrive at night, around the airport you will not find a place to spend the night, if you have a late plane to catch there's no problem on that, the airport facilities are open, just to explain you that the airport is not in the middle of the hotel/motel-area, the only transportation by night would be by Taxi, they aren't cheap in the punta cana area.
take care
Mike

I know this may be a dumb question but forgive me. The rates that are mentioned are they per person or just for the ride. Thanks in advance.

I think it is a maximum of 4 persons.

Has anyone heard of Asotatupal Taxi. Are they OK to use? Are they reliable? Should I have a taxi waiting or just grab one that is at the airport?

Sueno Caribe, is that different than the Sueno Wellness Resort and Spa? Any reports on the Sueno Wellness Resort? Taxi fare or otherwise? Visiting Jan 07

The taxi rates went up last year from what is posted on this website. But only by a few dollars. For Catalonia, Globalia, Allegro and Natura they are all $25.00 US for sure. Taxi's to hotels in Bavaro have gone up too, but not sure on the prices to different hotels. Only $3-5 difference i think.

2007 taxi fare

2007 taxi fare from Punta Cana airport to Barcelo Beach Resort was $20 us dollars + $2 tip in February. I think that most resorts are fairly close together and $25 should cover most fares. Most resorts are about a 20-25 minute ride from airport.

Does anyone know how much it would cost to hire a taxi for the day for sightseeing to travel from punta cana to santo domingo and the surrounding areas? thanks!

 

[MikeFisher]

hi Gordon,
if you are a small group/1 couple aso count on $150-$200.- per day.
you should talk to the cabbies in person and ask about the stuff you want to see like the caves, colonial zone, aquarium aso. don't take any cab from the street, talk to the guys working as cabby with your resort, they are from 2 companies and organized in their association, they are reliable, by the personel smalltalk you'll find out automatically which one of them speaks a good english to be your guide.
have fun
Mike
