Why travellers on the
North Coast ride with Junior

Junior Martinez has been driving this coastline for years — the airport run to Sosúa, the kite crowd heading to Cabarete, families going up to Playa Grande, couples chasing the waterfalls at Damajagua. He knows which road floods in October and which shortcut saves you twenty minutes on a Sunday.

This is not a call centre. When you message the WhatsApp number on this page, you are messaging Junior. He confirms your price before you travel, watches your flight, and answers if your plans change at midnight. That is the whole promise: one driver you can actually reach, a price agreed in writing, and a clean, cold, comfortable car at the kerb when you walk out.

  • Private service only — you never share the vehicle with strangers
  • Flight tracked, so a delayed landing costs you nothing extra
  • Child seats available on request, at no charge
  • Cash in US$ or DOP, or arrange card payment in advance

Six reasons your ride
goes exactly to plan

Licensed Drivers

Fully licensed, insured and permitted to work the airport. You are riding with a professional, not an opportunist at the exit gate.

Comfortable Vehicles

Modern, spotless cars and minivans with real luggage space — golf bags, surfboards, kite gear and a family's worth of suitcases all fit.

Punctual Service

Junior arrives early, not on time. Flights are tracked, so if you land two hours late your driver is still standing there.

Fixed Prices

The price you agree on WhatsApp is the price you pay. No meter, no night surcharge, no luggage fee, no renegotiation at the destination.

English & Spanish

Book, ask questions and change plans in English or Spanish. Nothing gets lost between your message and your driver.

Available 24/7

The 5am departure and the 1am arrival are both normal here. Message any hour and you get a real answer.

What passengers say
after the first ride

Junior is the best taxi driver in the entire DR. Super reliable and professional!

Brendon RobinsonGoogle review

When we visit the Dominican Republic, Junior is our go-to for everything transportation. We've known him for almost 10 years and he's very reliable with reasonable pricing. Keep up the good work, Junior!

Mitch DobneyGoogle review · Customer for ~10 years

Great person and a skillful driver. My family, my friends and I have used him for years. He's the only taxi driver on the north coast that I entrust to get us back and forth safely.

Shawn CarterGoogle review

Hands down, best taxi in the Sosúa area. Been using his service for over 10 years — long distances and short. His vehicle is always in mint condition and always on time.

Syndie PierrelouisGoogle review · Customer for 10+ years

My guy Junior is the best in the business. I've been coming to the DR since 2016 — he's the only person I call to pick me up.

Rico C.O.D.Google review · Customer since 2016

One of the best and most honest taxi drivers in the Sosúa / Cabarete / Puerto Plata area. I've been working with Junior for the past 3 years now and highly recommend him to anyone.

Questions travellers ask
before they book

How do I book?

Send one WhatsApp message with your date, time, pick-up, destination and — if you're flying — your flight number. Junior replies with a fixed total in US dollars. When you say yes, it's booked. There is no app to download, no account, and no deposit for standard transfers.

Do you accept cash?

Yes — cash is the easiest way to pay, handed to your driver at the end of the ride. US dollars and Dominican pesos are both fine. Pesos are converted at the day's rate. If you'd rather not carry cash, ask about card or bank transfer when you book and Junior will arrange it in advance.

Do you offer round trips?

Yes, and booking both directions at once is the smart move — your return is locked into the schedule and Junior confirms the pick-up time for your departure day. Each leg is charged at the normal fixed rate; nothing is added for the return. If your flight home moves, message him and the pick-up moves with it.

Is the price really fixed?

Yes. The number you agree on WhatsApp is the number you pay. There is no meter, no night surcharge, no luggage fee and no per-person charge — one price covers the vehicle for up to six passengers. The only thing that changes a price is you changing the trip: adding a stop, a second destination, or waiting time.

Can I pay in USD?

All prices on this page are quoted in US dollars and US dollars are accepted everywhere Junior drives. Dominican pesos, Canadian dollars and euros can also be arranged — just mention which currency you're carrying when you book, so the exact amount is agreed before you travel.

How do I find my driver at the airport?

Clear immigration and baggage, walk out of the arrivals doors at Puerto Plata (POP), and look for your name on a sign — Junior is waiting in the meeting area just outside, not in the car park. He tracks your flight, so a delay doesn't matter. If you can't spot him, send a WhatsApp message the moment you land and he'll come to you.

How far in advance should I book?

For airport transfers, 24 hours is comfortable and a week is ideal in high season (December–April, and July–August). For a taxi around Sosúa or Cabarete, an hour's notice is usually plenty — and often much less. Junior operates 24/7, so late-night and pre-dawn departures are normal, not an exception.

Do you have child seats?

Yes, at no extra charge — just tell Junior your children's ages when you book so the right seat is fitted before he leaves for the airport. Families travelling with a pushchair and several suitcases should mention it too, so a minivan is sent instead of a car.

Your driver is already awake.

Whatever the hour, send your flight and destination. You'll have a fixed price back before you've finished unpacking your carry-on.
