Does anyone know if the Caribe Tours bus from Santo Domingo to Sosua runs on a normal schedule on Christmas Day?

Perdun, you can take a Caribe Tours bus from Santo Domingo to Rio San Juan, then take a cab from there. Caribe Tours buses leave Santo Domingo for Rio San Juan at 7:30 and 9 am and 1, 2 and 3:30 pm

Rellosk, those days are packed with people trying to visit their family. If you can travel before christmas might be the best option. Or afterwards..

You will have to spend a night in Santo Domingo and get the early bus..

Perdun,

If your plane doesn't arrive until 6 pm, you'll need to get a cheap room in Santo Domingo and take the 7:30 or 9 am bus the next morning. As I indicated earlier, the last bus to Rio San Juan is at 3:30 pm.

An alternative is to take a Caribe Tours bus to Sosua, then a guagua, publico or taxi from there to the hotel. But even that isn't possible since the last bus leaves Santo Domingo at 7 pm and you couldn't get there in time if your flight arrives at 6 pm.
