Question Best way to go from Santiago airport to Sosua

Hi all. I found your site by doing a search on Google. I am debating on whether or not to come back to the DR in September. I have been to Santo Domingo and Boca Chica, but now I want to try Sosua. I got a good rate for a round trip flight for under $300 on Spirit Airlines. The problem is that they only fly into Santiago, so I will need to go from Santiago to Sosua and back again when I leave. What is the best and least expensive way to do this, or is it even feasible? I know from reading your messages that the drive is over one hour, so I don't think a cab would be very cheap. Thanks.

Approximate cost from Caribe Tours Charamicos > el Batey

$RD30 motoconcho (maybe $RD50 with suitcase)
$RD60 publico (2) seats
$RD200 taxi tourista/entire publico

Priceless going on a motoconcho with a suitcase!
