Sosua Reports

[QUOTE=Marc Anthony]I was checking out a flight into SDQ that arrives at 3:10AM. Other than the arrival time it's pretty good, on price and connections. I was wondering if having gotten my entry card and luggage and passed customs by 4:30 AM, should I assume I can just get a taxi into the Carribe station in SD - where I'd arrive at about 5:30, just right to get a ticket and get on the 6AM bus to Sosua?

What's the taxi fair SDQ into town and would you forsee any issues with doing this at 4:30 in the morning? Is the Carribe station open 24hrs?[/QUOTE]I would imagine the taxi drivers will be there at the airport for those 3:10 am flights, you should be able to make the 6am bus. I believe the taxi fare is 25-30 dollars. Santo Domingo has rush hour traffic, so you may hit a little traffic, but I doubt much before 6am.

[QUOTE=Nowrath]I'll be in Sousa in April 09 and plan to make day trips to Puerto Plata and a extended 3 to 4 days to Santo Domingo

Researched the bus transport and either Caribe tours or MetroSt is what I'll go with, with Metro being my first choice to due less stops

My questions:

1) Passport requirements traveling by bus to SD. Carry my oringinal or will copies be sufficent?

2) When in Sousa are you required to carry your Passport while out?

3) If anyone has taken a bus to SD where is the last stop the bus makes?

I know the pick up point in Sousa is the Texaco station for the Metro.

Is this also the drop off point for trips coming to Sousa?

Thanks for the help

Nowrath[/QUOTE]I usually rent a car, so I usually carry my passport with me for that. Once out of the airport I have never been asked to show my passport, except when checking into a hotel. I have not taken the bus in Dom. Rep., I have dropped off various chicas at the bus and I have never seen the driver ask them for identification. I believe the metro drops off at the same point in sosua, at the texaco station. You don't need your passport while out in Sosua. I have a friend who took both the metro and caribe tours from santo domingo to sosua, so if you need additional info pm me.

Anyone been to or know of this place? Frankie down by the beach was trying to convince me to go, says its a local *****house halfway between sosua and puerto plata.

Yeah I think I went there twice. Is it a place where the girls are all hangimg outside. And a pond or sometype of water is down the hill. About 5 of us pulled up on the scooters and got the 'gringo price" girls said something like 50 us for a bunch of hags. We left and they acted like we had some balls for just stopping by. Not gringo friendly.

[QUOTE=Jodi In Heat]Anyone been to or know of this place? Frankie down by the beach was trying to convince me to go, says its a local *****house halfway between sosua and puerto plata.[/QUOTE]I don't know that one. There used to be a bar before cabarete coming from sosua, on the left hand side of the road. (maybe it is still there) It had a cement arch that you drove under and then parking on the left. It had what looked like a stage and a bar closer to where you parked with cement bench type seating. In the back they had small bungalows where the girls lived. I went to this place twice probably 4 years ago. You could fuck the girls in their rooms. I had one girl show me her room. No doorknob on the door, just a padlock. One large mattress in a square room. Two girls shared the room. I saw a package of antibiotics laying about so that turned me off. This bar had one of the nastiest bathrooms I have seen. It was a concrete trough urinal with a pipe in the middle for the drain. No toilet, no running water. They had a couple of cute girls there. When I was there I saw mostly local dudes hanging out there. My friend who is dominican took one of the girls out to cabarete one day. Seems the girls were almost like slaves. They were only allowed to leave the premises for a few hours everyday.

I do recall a "green river" that you cross travelling between Sosua and POP on the main highway. Must be somewhere there? Anyone else recall this? Maybe its more for locals and gringos would not be welcome. Curious nevertheless. FITS

Well, Classico's at least. Classico's Disco is to Sousua what Help Disco is to Rio de Janeiro. I was there with two other guys both Friday and Saturday. You might have seen us staked out on the upper deck on the right hand side soon after you walk in.

I don't know if that is the VIP section or not, but we sure turned it in to one. Had a gang of chicas with us both nights. I had this little blanca spinner on Saturday (if you saw her with me, she had the red pants on, long hair, and halter top), but babe didn't have her I.D. on her, could not find her amiga who was holding it for her, so I could not take her back with us to BB's. :(

I ended up having to leave her there and rotate her out for another chica. My heart is still broken since...

Look for my reports in the POP section about my 4 day stay at BB's in a few days. Just got back to sex prison, so I need a few days to decompress, and let reality kick in that I am no longer in DR...

P.S. MIA International is one big huge cluster-fuck on the return to the USA. Can't be avoided though...

Nowrath[/QUOTE]I have done Caribe Tours Sosua <> Santo Domingo several times and there is no problem. Metro I have done only once, and I wouldn't do it again. Okay it has less stops, but it isn't faster. The End station in Santo Domingo is really out of the center and you well get into traffic jam on the way to center. So at the end you need more time. I like Caribe Tours, as it has a stop in Santiago, where you can go out for a cigarette and eat some food. Caribe leaves more often from and to Sosua. A passport you didn't need, but I would advice, make a copy of your passport and keep it always with you. I do this in all the country's where I travel or work. I never had any problem with Caribe Tours and doing my next trip in January.

Saludos,

But as you get out of the Airport around 4 or even earlier, I would advice you to take a drink or so and not leaving to early from the airport. But I can't say how the traffic is at this time and how fast you are at caribe Tours, but I can ask my friend, if you like.

Maybe its more for locals and gringos would not be welcome. Curious nevertheless. FITS[/QUOTE]I have been to Rio Verde twice. It's nothing to write home about. We pulled a table and chairs away from the bar to get away from the deafening music. The girls that I saw were maybe a 5s, however my friends said they gave a good blow job. No one gave us any problems, but we went with a guy who visited on prior occassions.

I remember it being right before a green bridge on the highway (coming from the direction of Sosua heading to POP). You would miss it if you blinked.

I heard about the place in Cabarete. It was located right before the Esso? gas station in Cabarete. I have heard that it closed down, however I had a guy tell me that one is still open at the location. A chica friend of mine told me that many chicas can be found there. Can anyone confirm this or I guess I can check it out on my next visit.

I was there this past October. If you leave PP heading to Sosua you come to a small bridge crossing the river. I believe the area is called Cangrejo. Just as you pass the bridge there is an entrance on your left side and a place called Cafe Verde which sits back off of the road. I didn't see anything that suited my tastes, but some might like it.

-SP-[/QUOTE]I have friends that have traveled through Miami International Airport (MIA), they hate it. Really long walks between terminals, with security every five minutes asking for passport and boarding pass. From New York, I usually try to connect through San Juan, if I can't get a direct flight. San Juan is a pleasant little airport. The last time I was in Santo Domingo Airport my flight was delayed over 5 hours because of a storm in New York. The restaurant inside near the terminals ran out of most items on the menu. Santo Domingo Airport had free wifi inside and a room for smokers.

You can come back and do her in summer of 2010 when she turns 18!! You guys did look like you were having a great time though............

Girls must have those I.D.'s or beware!!!

No silly, she could not find her cousin who was holding her I.D. We circled the club twice looking for them, but I just assumed they left without her after I pluck her from their group. She had asked about 3 different groups of girls, but they all said they hadn't seen her cousin. She then went downstairs to go look.

They finally showed up, but I had already took another girl. They (plus red pants) were all looking at me, but I pretended to not have noticed her (but I could sense her stare burning a hole in the side of my forehead). As we were leaving she was downstairs waiting for me, but what was I going to do at that point? The girl I had switched out for her had all ready given me the middle finger because I ditched her for red pants initially. I got the chance to smooth things out with her, so I would've looked like a total jerk ditching her again now that red pants had gotten her ID.

I bet she'll learn to keep the damn thing in her next time...

Yes, and to add insult to injury the effing computer system went down for about 40 minutes. I can understand all of the buffers to keep people who aren't supposed to be here out, but at least make it pleasant for those of us who do belong here.

I literally had to go through the first check point, go down stairs, grab my luggage, go through another check point and explain to the agent why I was in DR (vacation), told to follow the "yellow dots", give my bag to a guy so that they can put the damn thing back on the airplane again, empty out all of my carry-on shit, plus my pockets, belt, etc., through the metal detector, and then once more through a line that makes you show your boarding pass.

And to top it all off, the friggin pizza place was all out of pepperoni...for the rest of the night!

And then my flight gets delayed 45 minutes...looking forward to doing it all again in March. Yay :(
