    amen!

    I did use Jesus on my recent trip and could not have been more pleased. He was where he said he would be when he said and his english speaking ability is appreciated. I WILL be using him again in the future!

    He will pick up at POP and Santiago Airports.

    But remember what Gdogg said, $15 per car load. That's no matter how many people get in or who he stops to pick up. The total is $15.....

    well, sometimes

    Actually, when we used him, he also picked up another guy who was on our same flight. I was still happy to pay him his usual fee because there were two of us anyway, but I used him later to go from Sosua to Blackbeards and paid him less than the rates quaoted from Costambar, so I guess it all evened out...

    After that first hosing, he cuts you a break.

    The hosing is an initiation of sorts, I guess. I actually shorted him on my trip to the airport, so I'm one of the few who actually owe HIM!

    Jesus is a good guy and $15US is actually reasonable from the POP airport to the Palace in Sosua.

    Even at that rate the guy knew he was to high, but it was a acknowledgement that you guys are gringos and of course pay more!

    I know its pretty steep but i only pay $15 and for 3 guys 2 chicas and 8 suitcases its worth it to me... unfortunately i dont have a house there that can hold my clothes so i have to bring suitcases

    Public taxis (carro publico) get 200 peso to go to Puerto Plata. Is should be cheaper to go to the airport!

    I would not even entertain that idea. That scumbag will leave you flat. He has become totally undependable. I've told John at the Palace that I've had it with that guy.
