That is $225 each way, with 5% off the total when both legs are booked together.

How the $427 is calculated

Arrival $225 + return $225 = $450. Booked together, 5% comes off the total and it rounds down to $427 Standard. VIP: $300 + $300 = $600, less 5%, $570. Per vehicle, 1 to 6 passengers, taxes included. A 7–14 passenger van on this run is quoted on WhatsApp. The rate covers tolls on the Autopista Duarte and the driver's return; there is no per-hour meter and no waiting charge inside the agreed plan.

The two legs, explained

The arrival leg is a cross-country drive, not a hop up the coast. We track your flight, meet you in the arrivals hall with a printed name sign, and head south on the Autopista Duarte over the Cordillera Septentrional and through Santiago. Three and a half to four hours later you are at your Zona Colonial hotel, a Malecón address, or the departures curb at Las Américas (SDQ) if you are connecting.

For the return we recommend leaving Santo Domingo 6 hours before your flight from POP. City traffic on the way out is the variable nobody plans for, and it can add an hour before you even reach the highway. The driver arrives early at the hotel, we confirm the pickup time in writing the day before, and there is no surcharge for a pre-dawn start.

How to book both legs

  1. 1WhatsApp us the Santo Domingo address (or SDQ), both flight numbers, both dates and the party size.
  2. 2We reply with the written round-trip total and the 6-hour pickup time for departure day.
  3. 3Arrival day: the driver meets you in the arrivals hall at POP with your name on a sign.
  4. 4Departure day: hotel pickup, Autopista Duarte north through Santiago, straight to POP departures.

POP ⇄ Santo Domingo round trip $427 Standard, private car — questions we get daily

Does this cover SDQ airport as well as the city?
Yes. Las Américas airport (SDQ) and city addresses are the same $225 one-way rate. Tell us which one and we plan the route accordingly.
Can I book only one leg?
Yes, at $225 Standard each way. The 5% discount applies only when both legs are booked together.
Is there a night surcharge on a 4 a.m. city pickup?
No. The rate is identical at any hour on both legs.
What about a group of eight?
A van on this route is quoted on WhatsApp rather than with the local +$20 / +$40 surcharge. Send the head count and luggage for a written figure.
Are tolls and the driver's return included?
Yes. The published price is everything: tolls, fuel and the driver's run back north. Nothing is added at the door.
Can we stop on the way, for example in Santiago?
A short stop in Santiago is fine on request. Longer stops or a sightseeing plan get quoted separately on WhatsApp before you travel.
