We're staying at the Grand Paradise Bavaro in December. We're considering a day trip (maybe only a couple hours) to Higuey and had the following logistical questions:
1. Do gua-guas travel the road from the resort to the little town area where there's the public bus to Higuey? (And what is the name of that little town -- Cortecita?) When we stayed in the resort area near Puerta Plata, we took the gua-guas into town so no problem with the concept--in fact we enjoyed the adventure. We also speak basic Spanish. If there are gua-guas, do they run all day? How much? Do the buses run fairly frequently from the little town to Higuey?
2. If we don't go by public transportation, any sense of how much a taxi would cost?
Thanks in advance for your help...this is my first post on this forum so forgive me if I've made any etiquette breaches.
