Barahona

[worldlywahoo]

Hi all,

I will be in Barahona next week and most likely will need to hire a driver to take myself and my colleague around (we are travelling for work-related purposes). We will be going to Jimani, which is about 1.5 hours away. (For the record, we are not going to gawk at the floods, we are traveling with a group that is bringing aid, etc.). So can anyone tell me what the going rate is for a driver? We are two women, we both speak Spanish and we don't need any tour guides or anything, just someone who can drive us around. Thanks.

P.S. Barahona is a lively, fun place. Facilities that are quite acceptable are available. Also let me know if you would like any additional info on these.
