Guides
Uber at SDQ — what actually works
Uber exists in Santo Domingo, but the arrivals curb at Las Américas is not where the app is at its best.
SDQ taxi vs private transfer
The official hall taxi is legitimate. It is also the most expensive way to leave Las Américas.
Shared shuttle vs private transfer from SDQ
We do not sell shared shuttles. Here is the arithmetic behind that decision.
Transfer times from SDQ by zone
Realistic wheels-down-to-door numbers for the capital, the coast and the long-haul island runs.
How much is an SDQ airport transfer? 2026 prices
Full private rates from Las Américas, per vehicle, taxes and highway tolls included.
Night arrivals at SDQ
Landing after 22:00 costs the same and works the same. What changes is the hall.
Car seats and families at SDQ
Seats are free, installed before pickup, and they do not change the price of the ride.
First landing at SDQ — the whole sequence
Immigration, baggage, customs, arrivals hall, and where the man with your name is standing.
Arrivals-hall touts at Las Américas
Nobody official approaches you first. That single rule solves most of it.

Marc D. · Juan Dolio

Elena R. · Las Terrenas
