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 arrange 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
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.
