POP airport transfer to Jarabacoa

Who rides from POP into the mountains

Jarabacoa sits at about 530 metres in the Cordillera Central, the cool green side of the Dominican Republic: pine forest, the Jimenoa and Baiguate waterfalls, rafting on the Yaque del Norte, and the trailheads for Pico Duarte. The rate covers Jarabacoa town, the lodges and mountain villas around it, the rafting camps, and the road on towards the Constanza valley. People who book it are heading to a retreat, a rafting or hiking week, a wedding at one of the mountain venues, or a family house. The last 30 minutes are a two-lane mountain road with hairpins; it is a comfortable drive in daylight and a slow one in the dark, so for evening arrivals we build the extra time into the plan rather than rushing it.

How the Jarabacoa pickup runs

1. 1Send the lodge, villa or camp name in Jarabacoa, plus flight number, date and passenger count.
2. 2We reply with the written price and confirm a vehicle suited to the mountain road and your luggage.
3. 3After immigration and baggage, walk out to arrivals and look for the sign with your name.
4. 4Direct drive south with one comfort stop if you want it. Drop-off at your door.

Hotels, villas and drop-off points

• POP to Hotel Gran Jimenoa
• POP to Altocerro Villas, Hotel & Camping

Other Jarabacoa hotels use the same $150 / $210 rate — send the name on WhatsApp.

Lodges and hotels drop at reception. Mountain villas and cabins drop at the gate or as close as the track allows; for those we ask for the caretaker's number so somebody is expecting the car.

Bigger groups

For 7–14 passengers on local routes to Playa Dorada, Puerto Plata city, Costambar, Cofresí, Maimón, Sosúa or Cabarete, add $20 Standard or $40 VIP per vehicle per journey. Larger groups and all longer group routes require a written custom quote. Declare all luggage and child seats before confirming the vehicle.
