Just wondering are Rocio and JJ still in buisness and are they still and really as good as the old posts make them sound ? If so can some one post an email for them . Are they in buisness together or are they separate taxi drivers . I'm looking for someone who can show me around for a few days and more . We will be based in Cabarete . Thanks

They are husband and wife and currently living in the US. You can PM JJ under his screen-name bachata. He probably has contacts in the DR that he can recommend.

From what I've read of the most recent visits to POP, the rates have gone up about ten dollars, at least to Playa Dorada. The last report was that they were charging $35.

From POP airport to:

Cabarete - US$30
Cabrera - US$110
Costambar - US$40
Sosua - US$20
Puerto Plata - US$30
Luperon - US$80
Playa Dorada - US$25
Rio San Juan - US$45

There are 2 huge signs put where they can be easily seen by people leaving the terminal after passing through Customs. Listed are all the places in the country a traveler arriving in Puerto Plata airport might want to go.

Can anyone update this list? I need a taxi from POP to Rio San Juan. I called Elias from the US and he quoted me $100 for 5 of us in a taxi. 11/3/2011

That's good to know. I believe that it was taxissousa that I called. They said they would hold up a sign with my name on it and our destination.

The price on the board yesterday was $90 for a cab. So Elias at $100 for a nice van that will hold you all comfortably is not a bad price.

My last two trips, I walked up and said I have $20 to get to Sosua and they took it. The driver is usually cool so I end up adding a tip anyway.

Where do you "walk up to?"

I'm curious, where did you walk up to, and how do you know who has the vans available for a family of 5?

Does anyone know of a reasonably priced, good, and comfortable taxi service from POP to Las Terrenas for two people? We will be arriving in POP on Sunday 11/27.

Does anyone know how many people Elias can accommodate in his van?
Thanks!
