The road from La Vega to Santiago

The real road it follows, towards the northwest: 32 km and about 40 min on the road. Timetables are pending phone confirmation.

Our assistance

Full refund if we cannot get your ticket, even if that happens on the day of travel. Once the ticket is issued it is non-refundable unless the carrier's policy allows it or mandatory rights require it. Changes are reviewed manually, subject to availability and carrier approval.

Guagualine manages the ticket and support. The operator provides the journey under its conditions. Mandatory consumer rights remain unaffected.

What to know before you board

The biggest network, and the busiest

Caribe Tours covers nearly the whole country, so its morning departures sell out first. Mid afternoon runs usually have more space.

Checked luggage gets a tag

You receive a numbered stub for your suitcase. Keep it: without it they may not release your luggage on arrival.

Wifi and a movie on board

Long distance coaches usually have patchy wifi and a movie playing loud. Bring headphones.

Timetables change without notice

Published timetables are indicative and may come from initial research pending verification. We check availability and the time for your date before arranging a ticket.

We never put you on the last departure of the day

A later departure may provide an alternative if there is a disruption, but it depends on availability and operator conditions. It does not guarantee another seat.
