I am flying into Santo Domingo in Sept. Would like to know if there is any bus service from Santo Domingo to Punta Cana. It doesn't look like the two major carriers Caribe and Metro run from SDQ to PUJ. I may be wrong about Caribe and Metro. What alternatives do I have?

It's about a 4-hour bus ride (150 miles) on Expreso Bavaro. There are four buses a day, 7:00 h., 10:00 h., 14:00 h. y 16:00 h. The bus leaves from the downtown terminal in the city of Santo Domingo. I am unable to find if they have a website. I am under the impression that the one-way fare is around US$ 10.00.

This is the only website I can find with flights between SDQ and PUJ. You are not going to be very happy when you see the prices!

Good luck. Hopefully you can change your flight and fly directly to Punta Cana.
