What to know before you board
No direct bus: the connection is the risk
On this route you change bus and often terminal in Santo Domingo. If one leg runs late, the second does not wait. That is why we sell the coordinated itinerary instead of two loose tickets.
Block out the whole day
Plan for a full travel day, not half a day. Arriving after dark in a place you do not know is the part worth avoiding.
Timetables change without notice
Dominican operators adjust departures for season, roadworks or demand, and they almost never publish it. That is why we verify by phone before confirming each request and show the last check date on this page.
We never sell the last departure of the day
If your bus fails there has to be a later one to rebook you on. That is the rule that lets us offer a real guarantee.
