I took a taxis from LT to Samana a little while back and it cost me a whopping $70USD! The driver gave some nonsense about there being a standard rate that all taxi drivers were required to charge. Unfortunately, I had no alternative at the time. It won't happen again! Your best bet is to do as jaguarbob says: the guagua to El Limon, a guagua to Samana, and then to LG.

You got a "deal", Ron.
According to the association publish price list, the going taxi price list, LT to Samana is $50USD, LT to LG is $80USD.
