Can anyone please tell me how long it would take for someone to drive from Las Americas airport to Marien Coral by Hilton resort in Puerto Plata?

I plan on taking the bus down from Sosua. I believe someone mentioned in an earlier post that the bus makes a stop in Santiago before continuing down to SD. My final destination is your neck of the woods actually - Boca Chica. So how would I get there from the bus station? Should I just hop a cab for speed and convenience, or what? Price vs. a gua-gua?
ricktoronto said:All the buses connect via Santiago. Then you'd go on to the capital ending up downtown. Frankly at that point I'd get a taxi, haggle for a price in the $25-30 area and not bother with then getting to the guaguas and that rank form of travel compared to Metro at that point. Plus you'll have had enough of buses I'd suspect. I'd use a taxi from Sosua to Boca Chica personally or try a one way rental if I was truly adventurous. No buses for me. (or SOUP for you!)
ricktoronto said:Metro or Caribe are pretty much the same, take which one is best on the schedule though I bet they are the same more or less that way as well. The retail rate is US$180 so if you speak Spanish and bargain well, maybe $150.
nycVu said:Where'd this $180US s**t come from? I thought it was $30US to go from Sosua to SD? Is that price in pesos? Did I miss something along the way? Hell, I'd risk driving if I gotta pay that much.... What gives Rick?

ricktoronto said:$5 plus the $25 to the Metro or Caribe station from the airport each way. Learn to read.
Hmmm Rickster.. If you read that quote what does it say? I don't need to call names out to get a point across...lol You clearly state that "If YOU don't need a rental car taxi to the Metro/Caribe bus terminals in the capital, then the buses would be about $30 each way.".. hmm looks like you need readers comprehension. Don't get mad at me because you put the wrong facts down bud. It's cool, everyone makes mistakes...lol
