Bus from Playa Bávaro

Discover the Best Way to Get Around Playa Bávaro: Bus vs. Taxi!

Embark on an unforgettable adventure from Playa Bávaro to La Romana, while saving money! Taxis may be a bit pricey, but taking the bus is not only cost-effective, it’s also an incredible opportunity to immerse yourself in the local culture. Plus, let me share a secret – finding the perfect taxi driver can lead you to amazing hidden gems and insider tips!

Now, let’s talk about taxi fares. Navigating the airport can be a daunting task, especially when prices range from $20USD to $35USD. It’s crucial to be cautious and double-check before committing. But fear not, as I found a trustworthy taxi driver who not only provided transportation but also shared invaluable recommendations. From whale watching to the famous Coco Loco and the most picturesque beaches, he knew it all!

But wait, what about the bus? Some might claim it takes forever to reach La Romana, but trust me, it’s a breeze compared to those never-ending bus rides lasting up to 24 hours. And guess what? It only costs around $4USD! Plus, every journey on the bus is an adventure waiting to unfold.

To make the most of both worlds, I opted for a taxi ride to the bus stop. The bus itself was clean and comfortable, packed with locals eager to embark on their own journeys. After a quick bus transfer in Higuey, I arrived in La Romana in just an hour and a half. Easy-peasy!

During my stay in La Romana, I found solace at an incredible Airbnb, accompanied by a visit to Timbi Urban Food, a mouthwatering hamburger joint with Wi-Fi. Thanks to the hospitality of my Airbnb host, I was even offered a convenient pick-up service.

In conclusion, I highly recommend taking the bus! It’s not only a convenient and affordable way to travel, but it also offers a unique glimpse into the everyday life of locals in the Dominican Republic. Don’t miss out on this incredible experience!
