If you arrive from Las Americas International Airport, take direction Santo Domingo, and immediately after the toll (which you pass without paying) on ​​the right take the slip road for the highway indicating SAMANA (sometimes it is not indicated). (If you miss it, you will have to turn around in Santo Domingo…)

​

​

There are three tolls in all, total cost around 500 pesos, they only accept Dominican pesos (but not RD $ 2000 tickets)… You can change at the airport.

At the exit of this highway, after approximately 1h20 of journey, turn right towards Samana. At El Catey Airport, a new section has been opened towards Las Terrenas, Boulevard de l'Atlantique. This portion significantly shortens the journey and costs around 1000 pesos. - If you do not want to take the new highway, continue straight towards SAMANA. then after the Texaco service station, at the exit of the village of SANCHEZ, turn left towards LAS TERRENAS. (30 minutes) Possibility of GPS rental from your car rental company.
