How much is a transfer from La Romana airport to Samaná?

$430 VIP, one-way, per vehicle for 1–6 passengers, taxes included. Book both legs together and the combined fare for both legs is 5% off.

Is Las Galeras the same price as Las Terrenas?

Yes. Las Terrenas, Samaná town and Las Galeras all use the same zone rate, even though Las Galeras is the longest of the three.

What about 7 to 14 passengers?

The Samaná van is quoted on WhatsApp rather than by the local van surcharge, because the distance changes the cost. Send the party size and luggage count and we price it in writing.

Do you drive Samaná at night?

Yes, and the price is the same — there is no night surcharge. The last stretch is dark and unlit in places, which is why we send a driver who runs the route regularly.

Can we stop on the way?

Yes. One comfort stop for the bathroom, coffee or food is normal on a drive this long and does not change the price.
