Motor coaches and vans arranged by local destination management companies (DMCs) are the preferred method of group transportation. Since the DR is a large island, attractions can sometimes be far from the resort areas. Clients usually stay within the resorts except for group excursions, explains Pearl Markarian, who as president of Chicago-based Landmark Incentives has organized incentives to the DR for years.
The major rental car companies are represented, but hiring a car and driver or taking a taxi are additional options for getting around. Use only the taxis in the tourist system: the taxis outside the airport and at the resorts. If you go out, keep the taxi company’s card and call the same taxi company to pick you up, recommends Tovar. The taxis are not metered, so always negotiate the fare before you get into the cab.
