[QUOTE=Frannie;2066418]However that is based on the route via Moca and then over the mountain road, and they might not be willing to drive that route after dark. Taxis usually take the much longer route via Navarete, Maimon and Puerto Plata.[/QUOTE]That is the beauty of Uber; it is not a taxi. The price that pops up when you order it is the price you pay. At the end of last year I landed in Manila from Cebu and ordered up an Uber. The price was $5. It usually takes about 15 to 20 minutes to get to my hotel. Because of Manila traffic, this time it took 3 hours. I felt bad for the driver, but because it was Uber and not a taxi, it was still $5. So no matter which route the driver takes, or how long he or she takes to get there, you still pay the same price.
