Got tickets to go to Santo domingo from continental.com for 4/20. Now after reading so much about Sosua, I want to go there. Do I change my flight tickets to Santiago and pay an extra 80 dollars, or do I just go ahead and take a motoconcho rental man to drive me across the country to Sosua?
what do I do????

on a motoconcho? ya gotta have photos if you do that!

Sosua is about 4 to 4.5 hours away from la capital. If your travel arrangements are for flight only - just take the bus one morning at 7am and you'll be in Sosua for lunch time.

Spend some time there and spend some in Santiago.

What time does your flight get to SD?

If timing is right, the cheapest thing for you to do would be to keep the ticket, take a taxi to Caribe Tours and then take a Caribe Tours bus to Sosua. The bus trip takes about 4.5 hours, but you will see a lot of the country and the bus is comfortable. Buses leave every hour on the hour from 6 am to 7 pm.

Or you could change your flight to Puerto Plata if you don't mind paying the change fee.
Puerto Plata is like, next door to Sosua.

You should check the prices of the tickets, sometimes the flight to Santiago is cheaper, sometimes the flight to Puerto Plata is cheaper, with any luck, the difference in price (If lower) will cover part of the exchange fee.

Yeah, by the time you get to Sosua, you can have a date to keep you company for the first couple hours, the rest of the day, or, the rest of your stay in the DR. Your option!

Good advice guys, I think I've stopped panicking about what to do. I'll probably take the Caribe tours (anybody have a link to their website where they show you the departure times and exact location?) and go to Sosua. As for the date thing, I cant imagine why the heck will anybody want to keep a girl for the whole weekend, when you can go bunny hopping and get like 8-10 different dates a day in each 1 hour quick, meaningless dates at 800-1000 pesos each :D
p.s on a side note is it even worth the hassle of taking a 3.5 hour trip to Sosua chica wise? Can I just find the same amount of chicas in Santo DOmingo and Boca Chica? I just hear Sosua is the best place for that because of price, availibility, and quality. Can anybody confirm this hype?

Santo Domingo is difficult for a non Spanish speaker, and Boca Chica is a bit seedy & agressive.

So you would say that Sosua is the best place Chica wise?
It depends on your goals.
You would be hard pressed to find a nice family girl in Sosua, as it's a tourist town, and it attracts women looking for short meaningless relationships.
Assuming you do not speak the lingo, it would be difficult to have a "girlfriend type" relationship anyhow, plus I believe you indicated that you're not looking for that.
I wouldn't say that Sosua is the best, but it's better than Santo Domingo or Boca Chica.

An expert I am not but I have been around a little and have therefore experienced the attempts made to get next to the 'gringo'. Being fat, ugly and married to a Dominican woman I have no desire to go searching. Plus the fact that one morning I woke up, looked down and there was a ring of dots surrounding it at the base with the words 'cut along dotted line' neatly printed above said line....... ?Celoso?

Anyway ,,,,,,, of the many cities I have been to I must admit that the opportunity for female companionship in Sosua reminded me of any southern California freeway at rush-hour, 'bumper to bumper.

If Sousa is a good place for a "Chicas" Where would you recommend that one would have a more than good time with "Chicos"?

Obviously SD has tons and tons..... but is there an alternative spot? or is SD the only place?

Thanks

Everything posted here applies to both genders.
If you speak the lingo and want a meaningful relationship, you will look in different places than tourist towns.

I really don't know the answer to that question.
I would have to guess that Santo Domingo would be better, again, assuming you speak the lingo.

For the final million dollar question; What is the best place for chicas in terms of price, availibility, and quality. Of course for "meaningless" relationships :)
Santo Domingo does have some good sex clubs but are overpriced at 2500 pesos for short time and 5000 pesos toda la noche. Boca Chica seems to have too many aggressive Haitians and is a town full of very annoying merchants and hustlers.
