Last Gua Gua from SD to BC?

I never get a consistant answer on this one when i am there.

WE are doing a saturday night in the capital...and i THINK that the idependence day parade will be going on in SD on sunday...so would like to catch some of that and then get back to candil in BC on sunday night so we dont have to pay for two hotel rooms for two nights at the same time. (one night is cool...just trying to keep this on budget).

So the question is just when do the express gua gua's from the station in SD stop running to BC on Sunday?

thanks folks....4 weeks and counting!!!!

Thanks rick...you always "da man". but SEEEEEEEEEE...every time i ask this question..its always a might or maybe etc. And well...me being a nyc'r....i obsess over small details 4 weeks in advance.

I am not stressing over this tho....if worse comes to worse...we can take a taxi back to BC....or even stay an extra night in SD. BUT being the cheap skate that i am...it would be nice to get a ride back to BC for approx 40 pesos vs 800 for a taxi...no?

Oh...i forgot to add...we want an express gua gua.

wow...i am very much in need of this vacation can ya tell?

The latest I've ever left the capital by gua gua was around 9pm. You really don't want to be searching for a gua-gua after sunset anyway. If you're going to be hanging out in the capital until dark, just pay the RD$900 - RD$1,000 for a cab or rent a car.

ok..thanks to both of you. i think we will just catch a taxi back to BC.

a 9PM from the station doesnt sound that bad....and err...ah....there ARE expresses....well sorta kinda (at least for the carib).

Well...i got my typical domincan response....and that makes me grin ear to ear thinking about being there in just a few weeks!

yeah...i kinda caught a bit of it last year (ended up leaving early as i was solo and didnt want to miss that elusive last gua gua lol). I dunno..i was just thinking a couple of days in the city would just break up the monotony of just parking our butts on the beach. BUt if it is just a milatary parade...i think we can skip that. Perhaps we might catch a bus to la vega....but my travel buddy is a trinny...who is very proud of their carvinal...so i dont think it would be worth it as he probably wont be impressed.

Thanks Rafael....most excellent advice! With just a few weeks left before my trip I am just exploring some possabilities for things to do.
